Why Do We Get Bored of Things?

Dharma Q&A session at Jogye-sa Temple, Seoul, South Korea (June 15, 2018)

March 28, 2021

Q: I was wondering about why we get bored of things. I have a smart phone, I bought it last year, but now I’m bored of it. I have a girlfriend now but maybe in one year or maybe in three years, I will be bored and maybe move on. I just want to know, why humans always wait for something to happen, wait for something new to arrive? Why we cannot be satisfied with stability and just enjoy the things we have without having more?

Wisdom For You

What kind of nourishment are you feeding your mind for happiness?

The medicine is awareness. Recognize your own state of mind.
Like steady drops of water hollow out a stone,
be persistent in your practice of recognizing your state of mind.
That’s the nourishment your mind needs for happiness.
