Right View - How and Where to Look
from Ajahn Brahm Podcast Hosted by Everyday Dhamma Network
The Dhamma talk for the evening is on the topic of "right view," which is not about following a set of beliefs or rituals, but rather about how to look at and react to life. Ajahn Brahm shares a story of a man who gets upset when a stranger yells at him, but later finds out the man has a brain injury. The moral of the story is that we should focus on our reactions to life, rather than external triggers, and understand that anger is a dysfunctional reaction. In this Dharma talk, Ajahn Brahm discusses the importance of right view in Buddhism. He explains that right view is all about how we perceive and react to life. If we can change our view, we can change the way we experience life and ultimately find peace and happiness. — This dhamma talk was originally recorded in 4th July 2008.
