[GBF] New Talk: Who Does "I Am" Refer To? - Dorothy Hunt

The latest dharma talk has been added to the GBF podcast and website.

Who or what do we refer to when we say, "I am..."?

In this talk, Dorothy Hunt explores the difference between the 'home ground' of just being, before we add definitions of 'I am.'

Our pure being, or Buddha nature, is always becoming something, and often underlies the doing that we experience. However, as we focus more on doing, it draws us into a need for accomplishment and doing more, of clinging and aversion.

Dorothy goes on to define the ground of being as emptiness or "that which is empty of definition and empty of self."
