The dharma student resolves to follow a spiritual path in an effort to find freedom from grasping and to free the heart of its burdens. In doing so, we come to learn that what we're grasping on to, our stories, our suffering, is not who we are. We come to learn what we are, our true nature. In this dharma talk, Peter Doobinin describes how we come to understand these truths. The talk was given in December 2024.
