Listen "Equanimity | Upekkha | Buddhist Dhamma Talk by Ajahn Dhammasiha"
Episode Synopsis
Equanimity, in Pali 'Upekkhā', means letting go of likes and dislikes. Neither aversion nor attraction. The mind is even, balanced, neither attached nor repulsed by whatever sense impressions impinge on us.However, Ajahn Dhammasiha points out that we have to develop Equanimity based on wisdom, insight and understanding. There's a danger that we may mistake states of indifference, carlessness, or even subtle aversion for Upekkhā. That would be the "Equanimity" of the water buffalo, indifference based on ignorance. True equanimity arises from understanding sense impressions, and resulting feelings and emotions, as impermanent and not-self.Dhammagiri WebsiteOur Spotify PlaylistsNewsletterDhammagiri Youtube ChannelPics#equanimity #upekkha #equipoise #dhammatalk
