The topic of food is a good way to show us how the Buddha's teaching works. He advocated generosity as a simple way to learn about action and result, and established the tradition of giving alms. The talk looks at the problems of obesity and anorexia, and how to mindfully deal with craving for food. Using Vipassana meditation we to observe the transient nature of the six senses and in so doing overcome all clinging attachment to the senses.
