Depression From A Buddhist Perspective

In this talk, Khentrul Rinpoche helps us understand the root of depression. Often, in our society we treat the symptons of depression, not digging out the roots. We need to look deeper to understand why someone is really depressed.

Great analysis of what causes depression and what to do about it. Thank you.

Eye opening. Very helpful to have a spiritual view of depression.

pure wisdom handed on a platter.

Excellent insight. Need to listen a few times to fully understand

Thank you 🙏🏻 😊

Thank you! I see suffering is a blessing of insight. If you can see past suffering to the truth you are free. True happiness is the truth. Worldly happiness is temporary and suffering is the easiest tool to see the truth. The truth is Nirvana. Nirvana is in the present moment. It is in everything. It is letting go of everything. Sadness, happiness, thoughts, perceptions, see past it all. Everthing is illusion. Yes we cause our own suffering by getting caught up in the illusion of life by grasping and holding on to it.

Lots of great advice here. Could review it many times and learn something new. I felt the part about expectations particularly interesting.
