Understanding Your Mind: A Conversation with Emily Hsu

If we're wanting some kind of a deep, lasting happiness- right, a happiness that just doesn't come and go and an inner well-being, something that's really stable, then we need to find it inside ourselves.
Ever wondered what really goes on in your mind? In this episode of 'A Skeptic's Path to Enlightenment', Scott Snibbe sits down with Emily Hsu, a seasoned teacher of Buddhist philosophy and meditation. Emily has a knack for making complex ideas accessible, thanks to her extensive training and personal experience. She completed a seven-year master's program in Italy, based on the Tibetan Buddhist Geshe studies curriculum, which is typically taught by Tibetan Buddhist Lamas.
This makes her insights both profound and relatable. Emily dives into the Buddhist view of the mind, explaining concepts like clarity—a non-physical space that lets us experience the world around us. She also talks about mental factors, helping us understand which ones lead to lasting happiness and which ones get in the way. Ever struggled with desire or attachment?
Emily breaks these down too, offering practical advice on how to maintain a clear and grounded mind, even when emotions run high. She emphasizes the importance of non-attachment, non-hatred, and non-confusion, which she calls the three roots of all that is wholesome. If you're looking for ways to find lasting happiness and inner peace, this episode is a must-listen. Emily's wisdom is not just informative but transformative, offering tools to help you better understand your mind and cultivate well-being.
