About this episode

Hi Sutra Squad family - we're repubilshing this episode due to an audio issue, so while slightly out of order hopefully still meaningful! Thanks for listening! We continue our exploration of suffering and how it can be avoided by reading this next verse closely - that the ultimate cause of that suffering is the confusion of the Seer, the observer, the true Self with that which is seen or experienced. The temporary phenomena of our sensations and possessions can be a very attractive placement of our attention and identity, yet when we loosen the grip and take the big step back away from the immediacy of sensation we can begin to see the bigger Truth.
