When we look at the world, we can clearly see how hard it is to attain a balanced mind, as we are continuously in a flux of rises and falls. These lift us up one moment and fling us down the next. This is true for everyone; we are all the same. So, if that is the case, why do we discriminate against others? We are all in the same boat, all trying our best to ride the same waves of life.Equanimity is where we do not distinguish between our friends, the people we dislike or strangers, but regard everyone as equal. What we are trying to do here is remove the boundaries between ourselves and others by discarding our discriminations.My latest book 'Open Awareness, Open Mind' is available now on Amazon and Kindle - amzn.to/35uboLqIf you have any questions for Yeshe about this podcast, Buddhism, meditation or mindfulness you can contact him on the Facebook page below:www.facebook.com/thebuddhismguideIf you would like to support future episodes please visit www.patreon.com/buddhismguideFollow Buddhism Guide:Website -

We all have concerns and this is just part of being human. But there are eight concerns that bring us unnecessary suffering because we become attached to them or are adverse to them.The ones we call desirable are gain, status, praise and pleasure. The four we call undesirables being loss, insignificance, blame and pain. It doesn’t matter if we see them as desirable or undesirable, they are all ultimately causes of our suffering.My latest book 'Open Awareness, Open Mind' is available now on Amazon and Kindle - amzn.to/35uboLqIf you have any questions for Yeshe about this podcast, Buddhism, meditation or mindfulness you can contact him on the Facebook page below:www.facebook.com/thebuddhismguideIf you would like to support future episodes please visit www.patreon.com/buddhismguideFollow Buddhism Guide:Website - www.buddhismguide.orgFacebook - www.facebook.com/thebuddhismguide/Instagram – www.instagram.com/buddhism_guide/Twitter – www.twitter.com/BuddhismGuide Support my work on Patreon See acast.com/privacy for

In the fourth truth, he explained what path we can take to start the process of destroying the three poisons. This path is known as the eightfold path. This path is not a religious path and doesn’t require rituals, prayers, ceremonies, or even for you to become a Buddhist. It can be looked upon as a path that leads to us living a responsible life and so anybody can practise it. So, it isn’t a Buddhist practice, it is more of a lifestyle practice.My latest book 'Open Awareness, Open Mind' is available now on Amazon and Kindle - https://amzn.to/35uboLqIf you have any questions for Yeshe about this podcast, Buddhism, meditation or mindfulness you can contact him on the Facebook page below:https://www.facebook.com/thebuddhismguideIf you would like to support future episodes please visit www.patreon.com/buddhismguideFollow Buddhism Guide:Website - www.buddhismguide.orgFacebook - www.facebook.com/thebuddhismguide/Instagram – www.instagram.com/buddhism_guide/Twitter – www.twitter.com/BuddhismGuide Support my work on

The first noble truth describes how life has suffering running through it and in the second truth Buddha gave some of the reasons for this suffering. There is not just one cause of our suffering, as there is not one cause of anything. Things come into being through a series of causes and conditions, and that is the same for our suffering. However, there are three main things that cause us emotional and psychological suffering, namely, the three poisons. They are clinging desire, anger and aversion and unawareness.My latest book 'Open Awareness, Open Mind' is available now on Amazon and Kindle - https://amzn.to/35uboLqIf you have any questions for Yeshe about this podcast, Buddhism, meditation or mindfulness you can contact him on the Facebook page below:https://www.facebook.com/thebuddhismguideIf you would like to support future episodes please visit www.patreon.com/buddhismguideFollow Buddhism Guide:Website - www.buddhismguide.orgFacebook - www.facebook.com/thebuddhismguide/Instagram – www.instagram.com/budd

Buddha‘s first teaching was on the four noble truths, and it still remains the very foundation on which Buddhism is built. It was these four realities that the Buddha came to understand during his meditation under the bodhi tree, and they provide a conceptual framework for all of Buddhist thought.The first reality is ‘There is suffering.’ The word suffering here means a dissatisfaction, discontentment, an uneasy feeling running through our lives.My latest book 'Open Awareness, Open Mind' is available now on Amazon and Kindle - https://amzn.to/35uboLqIf you have any questions for Yeshe about this podcast, Buddhism, meditation or mindfulness you can contact him on the Facebook page below:https://www.facebook.com/thebuddhismguideIf you would like to support future episodes please visit www.patreon.com/buddhismguideFollow Buddhism Guide:Website - www.buddhismguide.orgFacebook - www.facebook.com/thebuddhismguide/Instagram – www.instagram.com/buddhism_guide/Twitter – www.twitter.com/BuddhismGuide Support my work on

What would you say if I told you the largest part of your emotional suffering was caused by yourself? I expect you would be doubtful or even shocked, but it is true. The way we live our lives, our beliefs, biases, concepts and social conditioning all cause us to mentally suffer. By suffering I mean our minds get disturbed, we become disillusioned, dissatisfied, discontented. This often results in stress, anxiety and depression. None of these are helpful or healthy.This podcast is adapted from my latest book 'Open Awareness, Open Mind' which is available now on Amazon and Kindle - https://amzn.to/35uboLqIf you have any questions for Yeshe about this podcast, Buddhism, meditation or mindfulness you can contact him on the Facebook page below:https://www.facebook.com/asklamayesheIf you would like to support future episodes please visit www.patreon.com/buddhismguideFollow Buddhism Guide:Website - www.buddhismguide.orgFacebook - www.facebook.com/thebuddhismguide/Instagram – www.instagram.com/buddhism_guide/Twitter

Learning how to stay focused on a single object, thought, emotion, feeling, body sensation or experience is going to cut down on distractions and help strengthen our minds. One of the best ways to achieve single-pointed awareness is through meditation.
