What Burns Within: A Parable About Transforming Your Nature

Let us know what you enjoy about the show!


A Buddhist parable called "The Dragon and the Fire" teaches us
how to transform our innate qualities from destructive forces
into tools for healing and renewal. The story illustrates how
redirecting our natural tendencies with wisdom and compassion can
lead to personal fulfillment and positive impact on others.

• A mighty dragon with tremendous strength and fiery temperament
feels unfulfilled despite his power
• When trying to fight a village fire with his own flames, he
only makes the situation worse
• A mountain sage teaches him that fire can both destroy and
renew—it's how you use it that matters
• The dragon learns to use his fire as a tool for warmth, light,
and helping rebuild the village
• By transforming how he uses his inherent nature, the dragon
finds the satisfaction he had long sought

Stay safe and healthy, everyone, and remember to live in the
moment.
