S6 Ep14: "Giving up without Giving in" by Paul Harris

This podcast discusses the role of renunciation in undertaking a Buddhist practice and the difference between renunciation and asceticism. It discusses how renunciation can show up our attachments and the hindrances to meditation, enable us to note the three marks of transience, unsatisfactoriness and non-self and finally, bring us to the realisation of nibbana. Paul Harris is the Spiritual Head and principal meditation teacher at the House of Inner Tranquility. This talk was given in October 2005
