Dr. Baker explores what makes up a philosophical disposition, including an eager desire for knowledge of all real existence, hatred of falsehood, indifference or non-attachment to money, high mindedness, justice and gentleness, quick apprehension, good memory, and love of harmony. He discusses Maya, the great illusion of the material plane that we live in, the challenges of time and the constancy of change. He explains that placing faith in the substance of form invariably brings the manifestation of suffering. (87 min)
