Forgetting about power and depth, what cultivation systems are most clear and simple?

Compassion is the most simplest, most direct path. It yields the greatest qualify of life and happiness, generates mountains of merit and leads you to rebirth in a pure land at death.

 

Therefore all you need is the mantra for generating compassion, the heart mantra of Avalokitesvara/Chenrezig/Kuan Yin.

 

Om Mani Padme Hum. 

 

Here is a nun who made this mantra her sole focus for 45 years.

 

 

The Buddha said: “I can count the number of dust motes, but I can not reckon the merit and virtue that results from one single recitation of the Six Word Great Bright Mantra.”

 

I love how the guy is so excited and hypes it up, i thought maybe there would be some huge cermony and pompy dress and whatnot. Then lady pops half the door open,  starts fussing with scarves and pleasantries, all very undramatic and just being herself i’m having a lateral flash to all the senior shut-ins and well to do slackers who eat delivered takeout all day just doing their thing. They are SERIOUSLY underappreciated.
