Joseph Goldstein explores the nature of Samsara, or endless wandering, and the three interdependent cycles of defilements, actions, and results that keep the wheel of Samsara rolling.
“These three Kleshas in the mind - ignorance, craving, and grasping - they keep us moving around and around in this cycle of Samsara. There’s no balance in our lives, there’s no rest in our lives, as long as this cycle of Klesha is revolving.” - Joseph Goldstein
In this episode, Joseph explores:
- The nature of Samsara and the profound questions it raises for us
- The first interdependent cycle that keeps the wheel of Samsara rolling, the cycle of defilements, or Kleshas
- The three root defilements that keep the cycle of defilements turning - ignorance, craving, and grasping
- The second interdependent cycle, the cycle of actions and karma
- The third interdependent cycle, the cycle of results
- How mindfulness can help us escape the wheel of Samsara
