Description
Where do you get entangled?  What does your mind get tangled up in?  In this week's talk, MOI teacher Anne Savery investigates these questions, stating that we can become entangled in anything our mind thinks about: work, relationships, emotions, ideas, situations, etc.  When we become entangled, we need tools to help untangle the tangle instead of becoming so enmeshed in it.  The Dharma is one of these tools.  Thus, Anne shares and unpacks the Jaṭā Sutta, a short teaching of the Buddha which plainly states how one untangles the tangle.   The Jaṭā Sutta      -- Translation 1: https://www.accesstoinsight.org/tipitaka/sn/sn07/sn07.006.than.html      -- Translation 2: https://suttacentral.net/sn7.6/en/sujato?layout=plain&reference=none&notes=asterisk&highlight=false&script=latin If you feel inspired by these teachings, and wish to practice generosity, please consider supporting MOI and its teachers by visiting, https://mindfulnessoutreachinitiative.org/generosity/
