Material and Spiritual Progress | 2020

Ajahn Brahmali explores the contrast between material progress and spiritual progress, encouraging a reflection on what truly brings meaning and fulfillment in life.Material progress (wealth, technology, status) is often seen as success in the modern world. Yet, despite material advances, people continue to feel restless, anxious, and dissatisfied.Spiritual progress means reducing defilements, cultivating virtues, and growing in wisdom, peace, and compassion. Unlike material gains, spiritual development leads to lasting contentment and inner freedom.Recorded 2020-02-28-This talk by Ajahn Brahmali was recorded and made available for free distribution by the Buddhist Society of Western Australia (BWSA) under the ⁠Creative Commons⁠ license. ⁠You can support the Buddhist Society of Western Australia by pledging your support via their Ko-fi page.⁠
