The House of Inner Tranquillity PodcastAuthor: The House of Inner Tranquillity Podcast
The House of Inner Tranquillity is a Buddhist Insight meditation centre located in south-west England. The centre was established in 1980 for those in search of a practical approach to the Buddha's teaching. Stripped of ritual and cultural accretions, the path is presented in a manner ideally suited to the needs of the modern westerner. Today, just as in the times of the Buddha, someone committed to truth can travel right to the end of the path and realise the goal of enlightenment. Countless talks on all aspects of the Buddha's teaching have been given at the Centre over the years. We have created these weekly podcast programmes as a way to make some of these talks available to a wider audience.

S9 Ep11: "The Uncertainty Principal" by Paul Harris
Episode 11
Friday, 28 November, 2025
Although appearing relatively stable, life is actually very unpredictable. We seek greater knowledge of life as a way to master the uncertainty. Meditation is voluntarily choosing to remain in the uncertainty of the present in order to investigate our subjective experience - something we have never done before. The hindrance of doubt, which is the attempt to ensure certainty, is prolific amongst meditators and highly destructive. It must be understood and overcome. This talk describes the amount of information it is necessary to have in order to practice Insight effectively. Paul Harris is the Spiritual Head and principal meditation teacher at the House of Inner Tranquillity. This talk was given in November 2012
