Manage episode 422084396 series 3424169
As a continuation of the series "The Relief of Emotions on a Daily basis," we dedicate a special series to families of emotions directly related to the ongoing climate upheavals. In this tenth episode of "Dzogchen in Everyday Life", Mila Khyentse Rinpoche and Christophe Renard take a closer look at emotions related to chronic dissatisfaction.
Host: Marie-Laure
Modern societies are often characterized by an insatiable thirst for consumption of all kinds, for "more and more", sometimes to the point of addiction. The mechanism always seems to be the same: a compulsive desire to consume in an attempt to compensate for chronic dissatisfaction, a lack of satisfaction with what we already have. And climate change might have something to do with it...
Can we do anything about it ? Certainly, if we are to believe the Great Perfection tradition, which shows us through concrete examples how to gain clarity about the process of emotions and thus how to appease them.
Notes
Dzogchen is a directly accessible tradition that can be practiced in a variety of ways in our daily lives, focusing on liberation from suffering and the means to achieve it.
In this episode, Christophe Renard and Mila Khyentse Rinpoche discuss the chronic dissatisfaction that often characterizes us: its causes, its mechanisms, and what Dzogchen offers as a solution!
