January 16, 2016 #1 AuthorDear Sg, There are many ways in cultivating faith in the Buddhas and Dharma Protectors. The key is to be diligent in your practice. As you see results, your faith will deepen.
However to gain true faith one must gain a deeper understanding of the Dharma in general and the practice in particular. This can only come about through study and learning. The Buddha taught that we must know what we practice, and in the process of learning faith will develop.
