At last week’s Sangha, we reflected on the notion of non-self in Buddhist thinking. This Sunday Margaret guided our continued exploration of this teaching, drawing on talks by Joseph Goldstein and Christina Feldman. We reflected on ways that recognizing the fabricated and shifting nature of what we think of as the self can lead us out of dukkha.
Here are the talks Margaret took excerpts from:
