Equanimity

The dharma student established in equanimity meets the circumstances of life - all the ups and downs - with balance, even-mindedness, and inner strength.  Equanimity is the culminating factor of the seven factors of awakening; when equanimity is developed we're in position to know freedom.  In this dharma talk, given in 2015 at Downtown Meditation Community, Peter Doobinin discusses this essential element of the Buddha's path.
