Live-Streamed Taste of Buddhism with Scott Snibbe: “Am I More Important than Everyone Else in the Universe?”

Am I just a little bit more important than everyone else? My happiness, my goals, my relationships?

It seeks to explain both the suffering we feel when things don’t go our way, as well as the dissatisfaction we still feel even when we get exactly what we want.
