À propos de cet audio
In this podcast episode, we explore the profound Buddhist concept of Upekkha, or equanimity. The discussion begins by defining Upekkha, explaining that it is a state of balanced, wise compassion, and distinguishing it from its common misconception as cold indifference. This episode examines its crucial role as the fourth of the Four Divine Abodes (Brahmaviharas), where it serves to balance and perfect loving-kindness, compassion, and sympathetic joy. We then compare the interpretation of Upekkha in the Theravada and Mahayana traditions, highlighting its function on the path to personal liberation (Arhatship) versus its role as the foundation for a Bodhisattva's universal compassion. The podcast also covers practical methods for cultivating equanimity through formal meditation and its modern applications in psychology and therapeutic practices like MBSR and CBT.
