The Third Noble Truth with Noah Levine

Against The Stream - A podcast by Noah Levine - Mondays

The Third Noble Truth is Nibbana, which can be translated as removing from the fire. It is the extinguishing of that which has been burning us. When we hold on to things that are impermanent, when we cling, when we are self-centered we get burned. Nibbana is freedom, Nibbana is learning to live life on life’s terms so that you can enjoy the human reality without making it worse/ When we reach Nibbana we are able to say - Right now it’s like this and it’s super unpleasant AND I am totally at ease with it.
