Uncertainty



Uncertainty has many of us scrambling for something certain to hang on to.

Humanity thinks a great deal about many things that aren't actually real. We hold onto these things because we crave certainty in areas where there can never be any. That's when we start believing in non-important, harmful, superstitious, and divisive stuff.

But if you think or hope Buddhism provides us with certainty, think again. The Buddha-Dharma gives us something far more useful. The Buddha's Teaching gives us a way to be okay with uncertainty.

This isn't just something Buddhists need, it's something we all need.
