[This episode originally aired on December 8, 2023] I've been thinking a lot recently about peace, especially the Buddhist view of peace • it's one of those ironic things: throughout history people have longed for peace and prayed for peace, yet we seem unable to free ourselves from conflict, war and struggle • what’s more, our desire for peace can actually manifest as aggression: “if I can defeat my enemy, then I'll be able to finally have some peace” • w...
[This episode originally aired on December 1, 2023] Buddhist training has two sides, somewhat parallel to pure science and applied science • there is the meditation aspect, the inward journey; and there is the application of that in the world, or meditation in action • we all have the capacity to help; we all have the capacity to cultivate compassion and also to cultivate wisdom and insight, so that compassion is intelligent • but each of us has to find our...
[This episode originally aired on November 30, 2023] Lately I've been thinking about the slogan, “Always maintain only a joyful mind” • at the same time, I've been haunted by the teachings that describe samsara, the nature of reality, as an ocean of suffering • if the world is marked by endless suffering, how can you be joyful? and if the world is fundamentally good and wholesome, how do you account for suffering? • the Buddha's earliest teachings on...
[This episode originally aired on November 23, 2023] In this episode, I'd like to explore such things as resistance, avoidance, procrastination — and why it’s so hard to keep going • I think such things are connected with expectations and its partner, disappointment • in one form or another, or at one time or another, I think most of us have had these kinds of experiences • but we don't need to view such things as character flaws or annoying obstacles; the...
[This episode originally aired on November 15, 2023] This episode is about groundlessness and uncertainty • how do we respond when we are no longer on familiar ground, when we feel insecure? • it can feel so uncomfortable that we might begin to panic; and often, when we reach that point, we scramble — we scramble to find some new secure ground to replace the one that we have left • so we go on a search to find some basis that is reliable, something we can ...
[This episode originally aired on November 8, 2023] One function of meditation practice is the quality of exposing and uncovering what's going on inside our thoughts and feelings • when we practice, the basic fundamental pattern that becomes obvious is how much our thinking revolves around our own needs and wants and desires • we look at what is there without judgment, without being embarrassed, without trying to prove anything • all of this provides ground...
[This episode originally aired on November 1, 2023] The “five powers” are five supports for your practice • they are: determination, familiarization, seed of virtue, remorse, and aspiration • with determination, you're willing to do what it takes to get from here to there; it is connected with having some sense of why we're doing this all together; with determination, we just keep going • familiarization is becoming familiar with our own potential of ...
[This episode originally aired on October 30, 2023] All beings truly want to be happy and content; so why do we continually and repeatedly create situations for ourselves and others that only lead to greater suffering? • so many large-scale problems in the world, such as warfare, famine, hatred, injustice, poverty, can be traced back to just four simple patterns: grasping, greed, hatred and ignorance • they are tricky, because they start out so simply and innocently&n...
