Ep. 32 – Practicing Dzogchen & Questions on Suffering and the Middle Way

In this talk in from a past retreat, Lama Surya Das discusses the Dzogchen principle of basic awareness.Through practice, we become opened to the nature of our mind. We are then able to detach ourselves and become a witness; we experience things as they are. Hearing becomes just hearing and seeing becomes just seeing. Lama Surya Das also answers insightful questions from his audience on suffering and the middle way. How do we come to trust ourselves and what does it mean to apply the Middle Way to our lives? "It is not outer things that entangle us; it is inner attachment and fixation which entangles us" -Tilopa
