Letting Go of Anger and Resentment: How to Solve our Human Problems
“You should know sufferings. You should abandon origins. You should attain cessations. You should practice the path.” – Buddha, Sutra of the Four Noble Truths
Do you ever feel like you just want to be happy, but the harder you try to get certain things, the more unhappy you become? Usually, we tend to blame external situations or other people for our suffering and problems, but if we let go of the distractions and negativities in our own mind, external influences will have less and less power to make us miserable.
These introductory classes will help us to see the underlying causes of our mental pain and dissatisfaction, then take a solution-oriented approach to letting go of the bad mental habits that keep us stuck.
