Craving and the End of Craving

The Buddha often pointed to craving as the cause of our suffering, so in this talk we will explore how craving arises and how we might come to the end of craving. Ajahn Sucitto said, "In fact our craving is about something we don’t have... The source is the ‘not having.’" When we start to see this with mindfulness and clear comprehension, we have more freedom to choose healthy habits over unhealthy habits, and we can begin to value the wholesome over the unwholesome. This can eventually become the condition for great happiness
