About this episode

David Roylance discusses the problem of craving in the human mind and explores solutions to eliminate discontent.

(Group Learning Program) - Chapter 12 - Craving is The Problem: What is The Solution? at Wat Tung Yu The problem that Gotama Buddha discovered about the human mind is that it is constantly in a condition of craving and desire, also described as attachment. The mind constantly craves, desires and attaches to possessions, relationships, wealth, fame, occupations, etc. A craving, desire, or attachment is “a mental longing for something with a strong eagerness”. The mind continuously and endlessly has “cravings”, “desires”, or “wants” and because we cannot ever fulfill our endless “wants” with the mind craving permanence, the mind is discontent caused by our own craving, desires, or attachments. In this Podcast, David will help you understanding "The Problem" in the mind and discuss the solution to eliminate the discontent mind. ——- Daily Wisdom - Walking The Path with The Buddha Dedicated to the education of Gotama Buddha's Teachings to attain Enlightenment. https://www.BuddhaDailyWisdom.com (See our website for online learning, courses, and retreats.)
