The Second Noble Truth - Your mind can make it worse - The Mindful Family Business
The Four Noble Truths and the Eightfold Path are shorthand reminders of the Buddha’s core teachings on how to live a peaceful, fulfilling life. The formula was developed by his followers after his death as the Buddha left no written records of his teachings.Note that although still in everyday use when referring to this subject the term Noble does not refer to aristocracy or any sort of superiority. It simply means truths that make you are better person.The Second Noble Truth: recognise that these different types of suffering are produced by your mind, even if the apparent cause is external. The mind reacts negatively to life experiences that we didn’t want, and does the same when we don’t get things we were hoping for. The Buddha called these wants and dislikes “thirsts”. It is thirsts that cause unhappy states of mind.To find out more about our unique programme and how it can help you and your family business, please follow this link and download our brochure.
