Buddha Dharma Part Eight - Eight Worldly Concerns

We all have concerns and this is just part of being human. But there are eight concerns that bring us unnecessary suffering because we become attached to them or are adverse to them. The ones we call desirable are gain, status, praise and pleasure. The four we call undesirables being loss, insignificance, blame and pain. It doesn’t matter if we see them as desirable or undesirable, they are all ultimately causes of our suffering.

Accepting the Eight Worldly concerns whenever they arise and accepting and seeing their impermanence will lead to less suffering. A wise and worthy step in the Buddha Dharma. Thank you. Namaste. 🤓🙏🏻

Another interesting talk and I found the reflective practices very helpful in developing my understanding of suffering. Thanks 🙏

Wise words. A reminder to allow and not to attach 🙏

Great talk, and I love the course! I made it into a playlist so I can listen to it anytime!
