In this episode, we continue exploring rootless consciousness—states of awareness that arise without mental roots of greed, hatred, or delusion. Building on Part One, we dive deeper into the 18 types of rootless consciousness, grouped as unwholesome, wholesome, and functional. Each is shaped by three factors: its nature, feeling (pleasant, unpleasant, or neutral), and kind of consciousness.

This talk shows how our sensory experiences—seeing, hearing, tasting, touching, and thinking—reflect past karma, and how neutral or pleasant feelings arise from these subtle mental processes. It also examines rare forms of consciousness unique to enlightened beings, such as the smile-producing consciousness of the Buddha and arahants.

Listen to gain a clearer understanding of how consciousness functions beneath the surface of everyday awareness, bridging theory and meditative insight on the path toward liberation.
