This talk explores two qualities of equanimity - balance, and balance in the midst of change. It also explores the wisdom that builds on these qualities - the wisdom of knowing that it is our response to what is happening, not what is happening, that holds the key to our liberation.
We begin with guidance to develop samadhi (concentration). About mid-way through, we move to mindfulness practice, cultivating insight, and then to two important areas of liberating insight--insight into impermanence and insight into reactivity (the most fundamental meaning of dukkha).
