Why isn’t it easy just sitting down quietly, calming the mind to see the arising and passing away of things? Paul talks about how suffering is created internally, through the three kinds of craving, the endless striving to make life different. To develop the wisdom necessary to know how to sit quietly, we must be willing to go through the difficulty of learning exactly how we refuse to allow life just to be the way it is. Paul Harris is the Spiritual Head and principal meditation teacher at the House of Inner Tranquillity.                 This talk was given in March 2019
