Speaker: Daniel Dranetz. Daniel reflects on the three turnings of the wheel of Dharma starting with the first turning and its central teaching on the four noble truths. As he considers the foundational teachings of each of the yanas and the eightfold path, he offers examples of human and animal suffering. Drawing on both his personal and professional life as a mental health counsellor, Daniel muses on our persistent and habitual belief that happiness is available through samsara. Flowing inevitably from this confused belief are the chronically ineffective strategies with which we try to combat our suffering. He illustrates his talk by reading some of his favourite passages from Words of my Perfect Teacher and finishes by reminding us that because of our Buddha nature, enlightenment is possible for us all.
