About this episode

The episode discusses the distinction between having experiences and identifying with them, focusing on the concepts of self and identity in Buddhism.

"Between Having and Being" is a Dharma talk offered at Two Hands Sangha about the difference between having an experience and making the experience our identity. All about the "I", "Me", "Mine" experience we solidify around with most of our thoughts and words all the time, and how to begin changing that. I hope this will be helpful for some of you, and that you will enjoy the talk! https://bio.reverendgeorgebeecher.com
