Kleshas: Like Highway Robbers . . .
Manage episode 387651978 series 2916183
Ignorance, Anger, Confusion, Greed, Jealousy, Arrogance, Cynical Doubt, Laziness, Wrong Views, Low Self Esteem, Fear.
In Buddhism these are known as Kleshas, mental hindrances that cloud our mind, setting the stage for unwholesome (i.e., self-centered) intentional actions.
They are stubborn -- sneaky, lurking -- like highway robbers, always ready to pounce . . . contaminating our perspectives while bringing about unfavorable moods and vulnerabilities.
But they are transient . . . just thoughts, and so . . . enter Lojong (Tibetan mind training).
(Length: 12 minutes)
