Your Mind Gets Stuck In Four Ways — Here's How To Break Free | Pascal Auclair

Hey gang, welcome to the 10% Happier Podcast. I'm your host, Dan Harris. Today we're talking about one of the Buddha's lists. As you may know, the Buddha was uh an obsessive uh listmaker in his quest to help us upgrade our minds. He made all sorts of lists, the four noble truths, the seven factors of enlightenment.

I could go on. Today we are specifically talking about a list uh called the Four Kinds of Clinging. These are ways in which our minds get caught up. So we're gonna talk about these uh these four ways in which uh we get embroiled or caught up or entangled, and then some ways uh to unhook. My guest is the great Dharma teacher Pascal Auclair, who's been on this show before.

Um, and he has been studying and practicing Buddhism since 1997, so he's been at this for a minute. He's also uh a co-founder and guiding teacher of True North Insight. Pascal Eauclair, coming up.
