Support us on Patreon:   / studybuddhism   We hear the word "renunciation" and we think it means we're supposed to give up a good life – all of our friends and family, money, delicious food and TV shows – and become beggars. Rather, Geshe Tashi Tsering explains, renunciation is about finding freedom by letting go of attachment to the meaningless things in life, which will never bring us genuine happiness. ___________________ Explore Buddhism at: https://www.studybuddhism.com The Study Buddhism channel features interviews with the world's leading Buddhist masters, practitioners and scholars.
