The Concept of No-Self (and Greater Intimacy) - Off the Cushion Part 7
When everything around us is changing, how do we stay grounded without shutting down?
In this week’s episode, we dive into The Three Marks of Existence. Qualities that are true for anything that exists. Yes, anything!
We’ll explore impermanence, suffering, and the concept of “not-self” and talk about how releasing clinging to our sense of Self can deepen connection and freedom and ease in our lives. This allows us to love AND ride the challenging times more freely.
You will learn:
• Why facing change, instead of fighting it, might be the most radical act of peace.
• How to turn the ache of impermanence into appreciation, presence, and freedom.
• The real meaning of “suffering” in Buddhism (and why it’s not as depressing as it sounds).
• What the Buddha meant by “not-self” — and how loosening our grip on identity can bring deep relief and belonging.
• Simple ways to meet uncertainty and loss with steadiness, not fear.
• How these teachings can make you more grounded, compassionate, and awake in a world that’s constantly shifting.
