Depression, anxiety, etc are mental objects. If they are watched from a mental distance and not called one's self, watching them come and go like passing clouds, there can be freedom from the stress associated with them (or of any mental object).

Life can be so intensely, intoxicatingly pleasurable, but it never lasts. Endlessly chasing after, and working for, fleeting sense pleasures involves endless suffering.

How many centuries is it going to take, for Westerners to accept all living beings suffer, struggle, work, feel pain or stress, etc in some way (which is the first Noble Truth of Buddhism)?

#Meditation in #Buddhism is not merely a technique for calming the mind, but the core of the path to liberation. Integrating calming (#samatha) and insight (#vipassanā), it transforms perception, dismantles suffering’s roots (#dukkha), and fosters ethical character — bridging philosophy and lived experience.

#Nirvana in #Buddhism is the cessation of suffering (#dukkha), craving, and ignorance — an unconditioned state beyond birth and death. Rather than a metaphysical heaven, it marks the end of self-illusion and karmic cycles. Its elusiveness invites reflection, making it a unique goal in world philosophy. In this post, I tried to summarize the multifaceted nature of Nirvana, its historical development, and its implications for Buddhist practice:

Anything short of awakened appreciation of living experience entails "unsatisfactoriness" (#dukkha), so, yes, I feel it can be important to underscore the matter-of-factly psychological effects of those "poisons." Even pleasure, when we experience it from within a less than really awakened state is "unsatisfactory."

In Buddhist thought, the #ThreePoisons (akusala-mūla) — greed (#lobha), hatred (#dosa), and delusion (#moha) — are the root causes of suffering (#dukkha) and the cycle of rebirth (#samsāra). They are not metaphysical absolutes but psychological tendencies that can be transformed through ethical conduct, meditation, and wisdom. This framework offers a unique perspective on suffering, emphasizing internal transformation over external salvation:
