The Second Noble Truth with Noah Levine
February 21, 2022 16:19 - 1 hour - 81.9 MBThe second noble truth explains that the cause of suffering is craving - our repetitive experience of craving. All of our suffering is caused by our craving, none of it is caused by external circumstances. Craving also includes aversion - When we are aversive, we are craving for the painful experience to go away or be more pleasant than it is.

Going Against the Stream with Noah Levine
February 01, 2022 15:36 - 1 hour - 81.3 MBThe Buddha characterized this path as being counter-instinctual to human beings: the natural human instinct is to resist, avoid, or meet with aversion all things that are unpleasant, and to grasp at, hold on to, and crave all things that are pleasurable. He explained that his experience along the whole spiritual path was one that went "against the stream" of ordinary human consciousness. The Buddha felt that the masses would never be willing to practice that kind of renunciation, mindfulne...
The Middle Path with Noah Levine
February 01, 2022 15:30 - 1 hour - 79 MBAfter experiencing both extremes of life, from gluttonous attachment to pleasure to radical rejection of all things pleasant, from aversion to discomfort to attachment to pain. Suddenly the Buddha (then Sid) could see that he needed to find some balance, he needed to find a middle path. He began to see that a key ingredient in his practice had been missing: it was simple mindfulness. He then began to practice an investigative present-time awareness, seeing the process of the mind and body m...

Practicing Buddhism with Noah Levine

I very intentionally haven't secularized Buddhism, and kind of pretended like it's not a religion, like a lot of meditation centers and Buddhist communities do. We kind of pretend like Buddhism, isn't a religion and that we're just doing mindfulness. So is it a religion? Is it religion to you? Is it your religion? Are you a Buddhist, or are you practicing Buddhism? I don't think it's very im...
Generosity with Noah Levine
December 17, 2021 19:47 - 1 hour - 81.8 MBReflect on your feelings around generosity. Is it easier for you to give or receive? Sometimes the vulnerability of accepting or receiving generosity can feel very unpleasant. Meditation can be an act of giving and receiving. In meditation, we give our full attention to our moment to moment experience, while receiving all of the emotions that can arise from that attention.
Mindfulness with Noah Levine
December 16, 2021 02:02 - 1 hour - 82.4 MBMindfulness starts to reveal to us that it's not so much what's happening as how we are relating to what's happening. Mindfulness reveals the impermanent, the unreliable or the unsatisfactory and the impersonal. Buddhism says, if you are mindful, if you practice, if you follow this path, you can come to a place of non suffering. Freedom, from the definition of Nirvana of enlightenment, is that you can be free from suffering in this lifetime.
