Season 2 Ep 30: Let’ Talk About the Two Truths

Buddhist Dharma
Written By Jon Aaron

We decided this week to speak about the Two Truths-- the Relative and the Absolute, or the Mundane and the Ultimate.   Are they real or just another construct?  How did they find their way into the Buddhist teachings?  How can we practice with them today? Is there even something to practice?
