About this episode
The great teacher Joseph Goldstein tells us that the awakening factor of investigation ( vicaya ) is a refined quality of mind that "discerns and illuminates the truth by means of discriminating wisdom." In our practice, this is the crucial factor that can cut through our delusion, and liberate the mind. In this 2nd talk of a 7-talk series, Shell explores how we can develop, nurture, and harness this important quality of wise discernment to discover more clarity – and therefore more joy and ease – in our lives.
