When we cling to what we “know,” we often suffer — because we narrow our perspective and can get trapped in a cycle of expectations and disappointments. This prevents us from seeing the true nature of our ever-changing reality, as well as the many opportunities around us.
In this talk, I discussed how embracing “not knowing” can help dissolve suffering, releasing us from the shackles of our mind.
