A Buddhist Attitude to Life | Ajahn Brahm

In this talk Ajahn Brahm talks about how with can take a Buddhist attitude to dealing with various problems with life. A clue to understanding this attitude is to step back from reacting to whatever is the content of this present moment, but paying attention to what our attitude towards it is. This talk is about cultivating that attitude or relationship with whatever is happening in the present. Because the problem isn’t so much with the world, but rather with our attitude to the world is where the problem (and also the solution!) lies.
