S10 Ep8: S10 Ep8: "The Noble Quest" by Paul Harris

The Buddha's quest for enlightenment is a universal archetype.Knowledge of the suffering inherent in life focuses the mind on what really matters. Everyone is capable of realising the truth but success depends on being willing to go against one's conditioning.As the path narrows, again and again we find that taking the habitual, easy way out is not an option. Eventually, through repeated observation of transience and conditionality, we discard all attachments to the world and are ready for enlightenment to call.

Paul Harris is the Spiritual head and principal meditation teacher at the House of Inner Tranquillity.
