Online: Persistence in the Face of Adversity
with Ayyā Somā
Tuesday, February 2nd, 2021 | 7:00pm – 9:00pm ET
The ever-changing nature of experience means that sooner or later difficulties will come our way. While our natural response may be to shrink away, the Buddha encourages practitioners to contemplate the source of our discomfort, no matter its form. Once we truly understand the nature of pain, loss, oppression, and despair, we can make the appropriate response and be free from the suffering they cause.
This evening is co-presented by Buddhist Insights.
