Renunciation with Noah Levine
Some reflections on renunciation tonight. What is it? Of course the whole conversation in the Buddhist context is, how do we end suffering? How do we find a way to live our real lives that doesn't make it more difficult than it needs to be? So that we don't create extra suffering on top of the already often uncomfortable reality of having a body, a nervous system and a mind. The context is important that, in Buddhism, when we talk about ending suffering, we're not talking about ending pain.
