The post titled Buddhism Frees You is now up on Buddhism for All. Angela from the Buddhism.net team reflected on it, and invites you to do so too.

πŸŒ• Angela’s Reflections:

Buddhism and its fundamental teachings on freedom and liberation is directly relevant to our modern lives in this way:

πŸ’° Wealth: Being free from the relentless pursuit of material wealth, we enjoy the value of contentment and inner wealth.

πŸ’ͺ🏻 Health: Being free from societal pressures surrounding how we look, we focus on genuine well-being.

πŸ’ž Relationships: Being free from our self-centredness, we build genuine relationships based on compassion, and wisdom.

πŸ† Career Fulfilment & Success:Β  Being free from external measures, we seek fulfilment internally.

πŸͺ· Personal Mastery & Growth:Β  Being free from ego shackles, we awaken to genuine enlightenment – the ultimate freedom.

🌱 Journal Reflection Prompts for You:

  • πŸ“ What is freedom to you? What would ultimate freedom be like?

  • πŸ“ In which areas of your life do you feel most confined or shackled? How might the teachings of Buddhism help you attain freedom?
