Nothing happens for no reason, and it's not all someone else's fault. The second Noble Truth is that suffering comes from craving: always wanting what we don't have, pushing away what we do, grasping at things that won't stay put. This class draws on the Pali Canon, the Bhagavad Gita, and the Genesis story to show the same insight across traditions: blame bad luck or blame other people, and we hand away the only power we ever had to change anything.
