Emotional Suffering and Nonduality
from The Tao of Christ · host Marshall Davis
Life is suffering. That is the first noble truth of the Buddha and the first sentence of psychiatrist Scott Peck’s classic book The Road Less Traveled. He phrased it as “Life is difficult.” Much of the suffering and difficulty in life comes from interpersonal relationships. They disturb our peace of mind and keep us awake at night. What hurts the most is when personal relationships with people we care about - friends and family - are damaged. At such times we look to spirituality for how to understand and address our feelings and thoughts. What does nonduality have to say to this? That is what I talk about in this episode.View Marshall's books here:https://www.amazon.com/stores/Marshall-Davis/author/B001K8Y0RU
