This dharma talk from May 14, 2023, was recorded at the Insight Meditation Society and originally published on Dharma Seed.
In this Q&A style talk, Joseph answers an assortment of questions concerning:
- The stages of enlightenment
- Being mindful of positive and wholesome mind states
- Realizing selflessness
- Concepts, the nature of consciousness, and reality
- Practicing mindfulness in modernity

"We think our lives are so complicated and so confused in the modern world, in the ancient world and - at any point in time, there are only these six things happening. It's a sight, its a sound, it's a taste, it's a sensation, it's something going on in our minds. So, I like to think of all life, and the unfolding of our lives, as a six piece chamber orchestra. It's just playing the music." - Joseph Goldstein
