Jampal Norbu examines the fourth verse of Lojong: “The Antidote in Itself is Liberated”. This verse explores emotional suffering through the five negative emotions, also known as kleshas, or the five poisons. Antidotes to these negative emotions are revealed through the Lojong practice along with the natural state of mind  free from suffering. The episode culminates in one of the most misunderstood points of Mahayana Buddhism: that emptiness itself is empty of emptiness. Theme music by Matt Quentin
