Dharmabytes Podcast #103 - "Four Reasons Why We Fear Death" by Kulaprabha

In today’s FBA Dharmabyte, “Four Reasons Why We Fear Death “, Kulaprabha explores the Abhaya Sutta on the theme of spiritual death. The death of our fixed, bounded self, the self that is made up of bundled habits and preferences and views – especially views about existence and non-existence. So don’t be surprised if, when contemplating the impermanence and unreliability of that small self, you taste fear. It’s natural enough in the circumstances. This is an excerpt from the full talk “Spiritual Death, Fear and Fearlessness” (http://freebuddhistaudio.com/audio/details?num=LOC58) focussing on the Abhaya Sutta. This talk was given on retreat at Taraloka Retreat Centre in 2008. We invite you to join us!
