Beware Of Falling Rocks
In this episode, I explore the concept of "falling rocks" as a metaphor for the things we cling to in life, which can cause more suffering than comfort. I discuss how Buddhist teachings, like the idea of skillful means, encourage us to examine our attachments—whether they are people, beliefs, or possessions—and to consider loosening our grip. The core idea is that our fear and suffering often stem not from the "rocks" themselves, but from our desperate attachment to them, and that by changing our relationship with these attachments, we can find greater peace and reduce suffering. This teaching is relevant to everyday life as it offers a practical way to approach discomfort and dissatisfaction by introspectively examining what we hold onto too tightly.
