This document presents excerpts from a lecture by Venerable Master Bennie titled “The Power of Bodhi Mind,” organized by the Australian Buddhist Practice Incorporated. The text features a dialogue between the Master and his disciples, exploring various analogies used in Buddhist scriptures to describe the Bodhi Mind. These analogies include the Bodhi Mind as a controller, a precious medicine, a deep pit, a diamond, a perfume box, a beautiful flower, sandalwood, black aloeswood, and the Medicine King Good-Sight. Through these discussions, the Master explains how cultivating the Bodhi Mind can overcome afflictions, negative phenomena, and lead to spiritual awakening and profound well-being.
