Emptiness within Theravada BuddhismWhat happens after our basic necessities are metHow we are versus what we doBecoming free from doctrinesThe importance of practice and heightened sensitivitySuffering and the cessation of sufferingSkillful actions and improving the quality of inner lifeThe portability of inner wealthThe limitations of obsessing over the selfCraving and how we can hold sensations without clinging“You can experience suffering in all of many forms and you can experience the liberation and freedom from it, the absence of it. The guideline here is what you can know for yourself. The inner life, the quality of your life, what you can know for yourself, that’s really what this tradition is pointing to.” – Gil Fronsdal
