In an early sutta, the Buddha pointed to eight worldly conditions (otherwise known as "worldly winds") that effect our lives and stress us out. We will take a look at these eight conditions and try to understand them for what they are.
NB: Thanks to Lp Sander Khemadhammo for pointing out that the metaphor of winds in the context of these conditions (at least, six of the eight) is used in at least one sutta: [ Ссылка ]
