Do You Want Comfort Or Freedom?

It’s easy to check off the boxes of a spiritual life - meditating, listening to dharma talks, going on retreat - and still feel stuck. In this talk, we explore why our motivation matters. If we’re practicing to feel better rather than to see clearly, suffering persists. But when we stop chasing relief and look directly at what thinks it needs relief, we see that the self we believe needs comfort isn’t even real.

Thank you for the wonderful dharma talk. I think most people just trying to find themselves in this material world we live in, happiness and inner peace. The only difference between people who are spiritual, meditate or in the process of awakening vs the rest of the humanity ( most people) that we have better direction where to find this inner peace. Most people are just completely lost, no direction whatsoever and grasping fleeting pleasures that don’t last and never fulfilling. Just my 2 cents 😄. Thank you so much Meredith 🙏🙏🙏
