Letting Go: Dharma Talk with Noah Levine

Dec 30 2019 Letting go is always the right thing to do. If your desire is to not suffer, the solution is always let go. “Let go” It's so easy to say, “let go”, such a simple idea. But the reality is that we're in these bodies, this mind, this human experience, and it’s not easy to let go. Actually, clinging is our nature. It is natural to cling, to crave; that's normal. Letting go, non-attached acceptance of reality as it is, is so radical that if you get good at it, they call you enlightened. If you get really good at it, you're this amazing being, like, “WOW. She’s non-attached. It's amazing.” Because attachment, and the suffering that attachment causes, is the air we breathe, is normal. Of course, when I say, “let go” let's unpack it because it means a lot of different things in different contexts.
