What does early Buddhism have to tell us about our everyday obsessions and compulsions? We'll look at the centrality of such syndromes in Buddhist dharma, particularly around the idea of "papañca" or "mental proliferation". Note that I will not be discussing OCD as such, though there is a link below to a NIMH article about OCD for those who are interested.
