The Five Spiritual Faculties Supporting Our Practice
with Marylouise Kelley
The Five Spiritual Faculties – Faith, Energy, Mindfulness, Concentration, and Wisdom – have been called the Spiritual Superpowers. They help us to create balance and to grow in our mindfulness practice. Focusing on the first faculty, Faith, we will explore the teachings on development of Faith in Buddhism, and reflect on our personal spiritual journeys.
