St Michael's Retreat 11th Talk: Letting Go of Notions, Flowing Toward Freedom
Thay explores interbeing and non-discrimination, looking at the four notions to let go of: self, human beings, living beings and life span, from the Diamond Sutra. He then goes onto the Four Foundations of Mindfulness, focusing on the objects of desire and craving, as a path to suffering instead of happiness. Thay shares a wonderful story about a young stream and her journey to the ocean.
This is the penultimate talk in a series given during The Path of Emancipation, twenty-one-day retreat in the year 1998. Thay offered this talk at St. Michael’s College, Burlington, Vermont, in the United States.
These teachings later appear in the book The Path of Emancipation.
