Have we misunderstood the true message of the Buddha and "Buddhism" (the Dharma and the Teachings of the Sangha)? Join us as we unravel:
- Chapter 1: Emptiness and the Four Noble Truths - Understand how the Buddha’s original emphasis on suffering (dukkha) and its cessation (what is pain and how to end it) laid the groundwork for the Teachings.
- Chapter 2: Impermanence, suffering, and selflessness - Learn how clinging and our innate desire to “feed” on experiences contribute to suffering, and why recognizing radical impermanence is key.
- Chapter 3: Utilizing three perceptions to end clinging - Discover the transformative role of the three perceptions in redefining clinging and guiding us toward true spiritual awakening.
- Bonus: Reclaiming the true priority of the Four Noble Truths - Explore how modern interpretations might have shifted the focus and why returning to the Buddha’s original insights can offer us a path to genuine freedom from all suffering.
