Finding Peace Within Constant Change

Training for Contentment & The Ten Things of No Benefit. In this episode, the hosts will unpack the mechanics of true contentment. They will explore the profound idea that contentment isn't about acquiring more, but rather learning to "want what you have and not want what you don't have". Listeners will learn how recognizing impermanence and accepting our current karmic circumstances naturally reduces the suffering caused by grasping and aversion. The hosts will also discuss how clearing a conflicted heart through forgiveness allows the mind to truly settle. To balance this out, they will then dive into Gampopa’s Ten Things of No Benefit, highlighting the worldly traps that hold us back—such as fixating on the impermanent body, greed, getting lost in the worldly distractions of family, or accumulating wealth and property despite the inevitability of death.
