Secret Buddhist Practice To Stop Self Hate & Overthinking!

Buddhist Gelong Thubten, Steven, Gerlong Tupton

Buddhist monk Gerlong Tupton explores the paradox of modern material comfort versus rising emotional distress, attributing the decline in global happiness and surge in suicide rates to a society driven by an insatiable "wanting mind" and chronic stress. Drawing from his personal history of severe burnout, trauma, and a pivotal decision to confront pain rather than flee it during a silent retreat, Tupton outlines a practical approach to mental discipline that utilizes mindfulness to rewire the brain and transform suffering into a source of strength. He argues that true freedom arises not from external achievements or spiritual paraphernalia but from the daily practice of observing one's mental states, thereby allowing individuals to replace automatic reactions with conscious responses and find stability amidst the chaos of contemporary life.
