249 - Are the Buddha’s Teachings on Renunciation Relevant for Householders? – Part 2

In this second half of a two-episode discussion, I briefly review the limitations of sensual or worldly pleasures.

Finally, I talk about how the Buddha’s teachings on renunciation are not only relevant but deeply meaningful and useful for householders.
