Content / Description

Terms we need to understand if we undertatke the Path of Practice (The Four Noble Truths, the Law of Kamma, the three fundamental characteristics of this Universe: Anicca, Anatta and Dukkha; and Avijja). Deep considerations about the Anatta principle. Using the three principles to relieve us. Avijja: not-knowing correctly. Greed, hate and delusion. Five Khandhas. Seeing what is going on. Wisdom on the Path of Practice is gained through experience alone. The knowledge that has nothing to do with the truth. The Cittas understanding is like: touching the fire. Everything takes place in the Citta. Importance of Mindfulness. When the heart understands... Freedom. Training of the heart.
