Description

In this talk, Andrew explores two of the Eight Worldly Winds — fame and disrepute, reframed for modern life as Influence and Insignificance. he reflects on how our craving to be seen, paired with our fear of being forgotten, shapes identity, relationships, and the world of social media. Drawing from personal experience and Buddhist teachings, he examines how these winds create restlessness and how practice supports steadiness through awareness, equanimity, and genuine connection.
