Moggallana: When Supernatural Power Couldn’t Defeat Karma | Awakening Purple Light

#buddhism #karma #moggallana
What happens when someone can cross realms, witness the law of cause and effect, and still cannot escape the ripening of past karma? This video tells the powerful buddhist story of Moggallana (Mahā Moggallana / Maudgalyayana), the Buddha’s disciple renowned for buddhist supernatural powers, and his lifelong bond with Sariputta. From Assaji’s verse and the discovery of dependent origination, to the heartbreaking journey into the hungry ghost realm where Moggallana saves his mother, the narrative builds toward his shocking death—and the Buddha’s explanation of why an arahant and karma can still meet. A deep reflection on karma and destiny: changing fate, or changing how we face it?
