Listen "Understanding Our Mind, Study Session II"
Episode Synopsis
This talk, part of the study session series on Thich Nhat Hanh’s Understanding Our Mind, deals with perception and experience.
“What conditions do we need to be truly happy?” Thich Nhat Hanh asks. It’s another way of asking, Do we understand how the seeds of our experiences shape the way we perceive our lives? This text on the Fifty Verses shows us that it’s not what happens to us that determines whether we’re happy or unhappy, but how we respond to it.
