Personal Responsibility with Noah Levine
June 30, 2025
Non-Theistic Approach To Life
Today, I will be discussing the concept of personal responsibility—the notion that we are accountable for our own happiness as well as our suffering. Buddhism presents a non-theistic approach to life, which frames this perspective.
I encourage you to participate regardless of your beliefs; there is no requirement to identify as Buddhist or accept any specific doctrine. You are welcome to join us, explore these concepts, and maintain your current beliefs. I am always interested in examining our individual convictions, and I find it valuable for us to reflect on what we truly believe.
Are you an atheist? Do you believe in grace? Do you believe in blessings? Do you believe in personal responsibility?
