John Ankele: Nobody Likes A Wet Dog – Podcast 107

Podcast: Play in new window | Download

Nobody likes a wet dog (to quote the poet Billy Collins). But the Dharma teaches that this subtle and pervasive tendency to divide our world into likes and dislikes is at the root of our suffering.  Meditation helps us see how we make ourselves unhappy. And that changes everything.
