Stages Of Meditation: Book Club III, Episode 5

In the fifth episode of Book Club III, Sarah Sati reads from chapter 5 of the text Stages of Meditation. This book, by his holiness The Dalai Lama, serves as a concise commentary on the text of the same name by Kamalashila. Chapter five is a chapter worth listening to multiple times.

This chapter focuses on the cause of suffering and offers listeners insight into the presence and experience of it for all beings. Sarah recaps the previous session before reading and offers space for practical application through guided meditation practice, as well as practice homework between sessions.

Book Club is an opportunity to look deeply into a spiritual text using a Western perspective. Each session includes a practice opportunity, reading, synopsis of reading, and optional practice homework.
