Ken McLeod continues his commentary on the 37 Practices of the Bodhisattva with the 23rd verse. Watch the other videos here.

 

23

Don’t take it as real.
Let go of attachment—this is the practice of a bodhisattva.

 

Letting go is one of our greatest challenges. Are you able to open up to not-holding?
