Episode 404. Looking for Permanence: When Does Bread Become Toast?

Episode 404. Looking for Permanence: When Does Bread Become Toast?

In previous episodes we engaged in the liberating practice of looking and not finding, as we searched for something singular or independent. In this episode, Elizabeth explores the topic of permanence - the 3rd in this triad of classical Middle Way inquiries.

Elizabeth drops back into her grandmother’s kitchen as she takes us on a tour of the nature of time, what it might mean to ‘live in the moment,’ and the difference between impermanence and emptiness. The episode ends with instructions from Nagarjuna himself!
