Dharma Talks given at Insight Meditation Society - Forest Refuge
2017-01-16 Tanhā: Craving 51:05
Gloria Taraniya Ambrosia
This talk outlines the Buddha’s teaching on the three forms of craving—craving for sensual pleasures, craving for becoming, and craving for non-becoming. Taraniya encourages the practitioner to use the retreat environment to observe craving in what may seem like minor or insignificant moments. These moments hold potential for major insights.
