episode 1193: Taking Impermanence to Heart
True wisdom in the Buddhist sense is not book knowledge, but understanding how things really are. The Buddha was always pragmatic in his approach and sought to get straight to the root of suffering. His vision was embedded in conditioned co-production: awareness that things are always coming into being and passing away, and that there are many conditions in play together. Satyajyoti uses the metaphor of the ocean, with many waves arising and passing away, as a starting point for her reflections on the 3 lakshanas, the marks of conditioned existence.
Excerpted from the talk The Way Things Are, part of the series Total Transformation - Heart, Heart and Guts given at Sheffield Buddhist Centre, 2018.
