Analyzing Our Dark Side (From a Buddhist Perspective)
Update: 2025-07-11
Description
Bhante Sathi explores the Buddha’s teachings on the shadow self, explaining that rather than labeling parts of ourselves as “dark” or separate, we should mindfully recognize and transform unwholesome qualities like greed, anger, and self-centeredness through wisdom and compassion. He discusses Mara, the internal force of delusion and self-attachment, illustrating how enlightenment arises from overcoming these inner obstacles with mindful awareness. Ultimately, Bhante emphasizes that true growth comes from shining the light of wisdom on our imperfections, cultivating wholesome qualities such as generosity, patience, and loving-kindness to dissolve the shadows within.
