We continue with our three-part lecture series with Heather Iarusso called "Sitting for Liberation." This series explores The Three Marks of Existence, one of the Buddha's most transformative teachings. We will investigate how becoming intimate with suffering, embracing impermanence, and comprehending the not-self characteristic can bring ease, wonder, and contentment to our lives. As the talk was given on election night, the relevance of this event is woven into the subject matter for the evening.
The series is being led by Heather Shoren Iarusso and is taking place on three consecutive Tuesdays, with one class for each of the three marks. This past Tuesday, 10/27, we focused on the characteristic of suffering.
