Few of us are familiar with our own emotions. Most of the time, we endure them and do not know how to have an impact on them. This is simply because we don’t know them well. The Great Perfection shows us how, through concrete examples, we can get to know them and how they work, and finally appease them.

In this episode, Mila Khyentse and Damien Brohon continue to explore the concept of emotions according to the Great Perfection and share with us how to master them thanks to a tradition and its techniques that are thousands of years old.
