After reviewing the first module and the inner sources of mental distress and well-being, Lama Alan introduces the deepest root of suffering: grasping to inherent existence. The Middle Way teachings of the Buddha’s second turning of the wheel of Dharma look at the nature of identification and the way phenomena exist. Through searching for the nature of the self and phenomena, the fixation on the “I” can be undermined and eventually eradicated completely, leading to a balanced and healthy approach to the experiences of suffering and pleasure. Lama Alan draws powerful insights from both the Pāli Canon and the Prajñāpāramitā Sūtras.
