Renate Seifarth: Die zwei Pfeile, die zu Leiden führen

Author: dharmaseed.org April 3, 2026 Duration: 40:16
(Waldhaus am Laacher See) Erfahren wir etwas empfinden wir dieses als angenehm oder unangenehm. Das ist der erste Pfeil. Was geschieht, interpretieren wir als .persönlichen Erfolg oder Versagen. Wir verwickeln uns in Schuldzuweisungen, in Reaktionen und Gegenreaktionen. Wir stricken daraus unsere Persönlichkeit und die der anderen. Endlos entsteht weiteres Leid. Das können wir stoppen, indem wir den zweiten Pfeil unterlassen, den wir an uns selbst abschießen oder herausziehen. Der erste Pfeil dagegen ist unvermeidlich.

For over four decades, Dharma Seed: dharma talks and meditation instruction has served as a living archive, a quiet space where the timeless wisdom of Theravada Buddhism meets the contemporary moment. This collection, curated by dharmaseed.org, is built from voices-teachers sharing practical guidance on vipassana (insight) and metta (lovingkindness) meditation directly from the tradition's core practices. Each episode is a preserved talk, often recorded in retreat settings, offering not just philosophy but direct instruction for cultivating awareness and compassion in daily life. You'll hear a diverse range of modern instructors, each bringing clarity to ancient teachings, making them accessible and immediately applicable. The archive is continuously growing, ensuring fresh perspectives alongside classic discourses. Tuning into this podcast is like finding a steady resource for reflection and practice, whether you are new to meditation or deepening a long-standing path. It provides a rare opportunity to listen and learn from a broad community of dedicated practitioners, all focused on the fundamental teachings of liberation. The recordings themselves are the heart of the project, shared freely to support anyone seeking peace and understanding through the dharma.
