Show Notes

Why does life so often feel unfulfilling, despite our best efforts? In this podcast, Gen Devi explores the Buddhist perspective on dissatisfaction, as taught by the Buddha in his explanation of the Four Noble Truths. These teachings describe the truth of suffering, its origin, its cessation, and the path that leads to that cessation. Through this lens, we discover the subtle mental distortions and unrealistic expectations that lie at the root of suffering and unhappiness. Based on the book How to Transform Your Life by Geshe Kelsang Gyatso
