Summary

Central to the Buddha's vision was the idea that we could get off the wheel of our repetitive behaviour, repetitive behaviour driven by craving and aversion. There is a gap, a doorway, off the wheel of reactivity and on to the spiral of more and more positive mental states. Vidyadaka talks on where we can find that doorway and how to open it.
