Honoring the Bodhisattvas Among Us

Recorded on 5/11/25 by InsightLA

In this Meditation and Dharma talk, Trudy reflects on the sacred role of mothers as modern-day Bodhisattvas—devoted to the care and service of others. Drawing from personal stories, poetry, and Buddhist teachings, she honors both the beauty and the difficulty of motherhood, reminding us of the need for self-care and balance. Trudy emphasizes that true compassion begins with self-love and that caring for ourselves is inseparable from caring for others. She also invites us to honor Mother Earth and all feminine wisdom, encouraging a deeper reverence for life and the courage it takes to live with presence, love, and awareness.
