In this podcast episode, the hosts explore the rich concepts of feelings and perceptions in Buddhism as outlined in the Anguttara Nikaya, Book of Sixes. They focus on the term "vedana," illustrating how it fundamentally differs from Western notions of emotion, and discuss its origins, variety, and importance. The conversation then shifts to the various types of perception and how they connect to feelings, emphasizing that achieving enlightenment enables individuals to experience sensations without attachment, ultimately freeing them from the cycle of rebirth.
