Killing the Buddha

Alive and Free

About this episode

In the Buddhist religion, masters would tell their students that if they saw the Buddha, they should kill him.

Why?

Well, the authorities that you revere are your last obstacle towards achieving true freedom. If you're still letting them influence you, you're not using your own eyes and ears, which can lead you down a path of judgment and suffering. 

By "killing the Buddha," you become the author in your life, with the ability to change your life's experience from negative and dark to positive and vibrant. 

In this episode, we're discussing the last "Adventure" of my new book, Built for Freedom. You'll discover how to kill the Buddha, how to unlock an endless source of joy, and how to leave all your suffering in the past. 

Listen now.
