The First Teaching: To Fully Know "dukkha"
Description
Andrew reflects on the Buddha's first teaching after his awakening. He discusses the foundational teaching of turning towards the suffering and stress in our life, and how, although it can seem morbid and counter-intuitive at first glance, this honest reflection of dukkha is really a path towards greater freedom in our lives.
