The Third Noble Truth - Awakening!

In this episode, Andrew speaks on the topic of Awakening. Far from the ever-elusive state of bliss that we often think of when we hear the words awakening, enlightenment or nirvana, the Buddha was very clear that awakening is an on-going process of stepping out of reactivity through engaging with the eightfold path. Awakening isn't a special or privileged state that is only achieved by superior meditators, it is instead the cooling down of reactivity that is the natural result of cultivating a simple and pragmatic path of ethical living, mindfulness, and wisdom.
