Can we lay down our burdens and find true happiness in this life? In this dharma talk, Peter describes how by developing the skills the Buddha teaches - namely, jhana and heedfulness - we're able to find our way out of the forest of suffering. The talk was given on the final night of an eight-day retreat in 2019.
"Over there are the roots of trees; over there, empty dwellings. Practice jhana, monks. Don't be heedless. Don't later fall into regret. This is our message to you."
