Considering how right effort drives our achievements and potential for happiness, Joseph Goldstein teaches us more about the dhamma.

The Satipatthana Sutta is one of the most celebrated and widely studied discourses in the Pāli Canon of Theravada Buddhism. This episode is the twenty-ninth part of an in-depth 48-part weekly lecture series from Joseph Goldstein that delves into every aspect of the Satipatthana Sutta. If you are just now jumping into the Satipatthana Sutta series, listen to Insight Hour Ep. 203 to follow along and get the full experience!

In this episode, Joseph lectures listeners on:

  • Energy as the root of all achievement
  • How energy can be associated with both unwholesome and wholesome states
  • Putting our energy to wise use
  • Taking the opportunity to challenge ourselves and extend our limits
  • Getting caught in efforting and in the result of an action
  • Investigating our own minds
  • Reflection on death and using our time wisely
  • The possibilities of every happiness
