Listen "Awakened Living. The Noble Quest. A Talk"
Episode Synopsis
"...But people love their place. The delight and revel in their place. It will be hard for those who delight and revel in their place to see this truth: Conditioned Arising. And also hard to see this truth: the stilling if inclinations, the relinquishing of biases, the fading away of reactivity. Desirelessness. Cessation. Nirvana."
The Buddha. From The Noble Quest.
Although the Buddha recognizes the challenge, he also recognized that liberation is possible. That is what led him to teach.
