Of the unique teachings the Buddha brought forth, including the role of mindfulness in awakening, how karma operates, how we tumble forward life after life in samsara, and the very root causes of all our confusion and suffering - Dependent Origination stands as his deepest insight into the nature and process of suffering (dukkha).
We will explore the twelve links within Dependent Origination leading from misunderstanding (avijja) to suffering, and how each link conditions the arising of the next. We will also explore how all the Buddha's teachings and practices may be seen as a challenge to the forces in Dependent Origination. |
