Learning To Be Happy

This is a live recording of a Dharma talk and guided meditation on the nature of thought, given at the Sydney Gay Meditation group, September 30th, 2019. We often talk about "our thoughts" and how to work with them, but we rarely ask, who or what am I, and what exactly is a thought.

In this episode, we touch briefly on the practice of mindfulness and its many benefits. By practicing this we become more interested in the world around us, find more beauty and joy in our day to day lives. By finding our thoughts less interesting, we find them less distracting, and all of this depends on learning how to pay attention.
