Gil Fronsdal: Buddhism & The Simplicity of Liberation – BHNN Guest Podcast Ep. 116

Gil Fronsdal returns to relay the story of the sudden awakening of Bahiya, as well as the liberating poem from the Buddha which it inspired.

In this Dharma Talk, Gil Fronsdal relays Buddhist wisdom in the form of poems and stories which point at the simplicity of liberation. Exploring true freedom as release rather than relief, he offers insight into how we can peel back our mental overlays and judgements so we can be with the sweet suchness of experience.

This Dharma Talk by Gil Fronsdal was originally published on DharmaSeed.org

“The direction mindfulness practice is going is becoming simple. It’s an act of generosity to grant each experience we have its pristine simplicity of what it is in and of itself.” – Gil Fronsdal
