The impermanence of them becomes a source of unreliability.” – Joseph Goldstein ================ Mindfulness of Our Emotions – Joseph Goldstein's Satipatthana Sutta Series Pt. 12 – Insight Hour 215 - https://youtu.be/wLzKGceFO1E Joseph Goldstein – Insight Hour – Ep. 215 – Satipatthana Sutta Series Pt. 12: Mindfulness of Our Emotions - https://beherenownetwork.com/https://beherenownetwork.com/joseph-goldstein-insight-hour-ep-215-satipatthana-sutta-series-pt-12-mindfulness-of-our-emotions/ ================ Make sure not to miss a single video podcast from Be Here Now Network!
