Description

Peace, happiness, contentment we all want it, but where and how to find it. The Buddhist tradition would say that it is in how we relate to our experience that either satisfaction or grasping can be found. Does this stand up, how do we do it, what difference does it make in the world. Dharmashalin talks here about the essential problem of life. Excerpted from the talk Finding Peace In a Frantic World given at Birmingham Buddhist Centre, 2015.
