Your Mind Always Wants More... Here's How to Stop the Cycle | Vibe with Venerables Ep 30

Описание: Why is the mind never satisfied, and why does the desire for “just a little more” often leave us restless instead of fulfilled?

In Episode 30 of Vibe with Venerables, Venerable Dr. Juewei of Nan Tien Institute explores the insatiable nature of desire through the Third Realization from the Sutra of the Eight Realizations of Great Beings, building on the earlier teachings that everything is impermanent and that desire is the cause of suffering.

Venerable Juewei presents contentment as the antidote to endless craving—not passive resignation, but a steady inner sufficiency that loosens attachment, comparison, and the pull of external conditions.

Drawing on the Buddhist teaching of Dependent Origination (Paticcasamuppada / Pratītyasamutpāda), she explains how craving sustains the cycle of suffering, why contentment requires intentional effort, and how mindfulness begins the work of reshaping deeply ingrained habits.

If the feeling of “never enough” sounds familiar, this episode offers both insight and a path forward grounded in wisdom and practice.
