Listen "Practicing while the world is on fire"
Episode Synopsis
This talk was recorded at Misfit Sangha in Albuquerque, NM. This talk explores the relationship between the liberating teachings of the Buddha of the early discourses and our responsibility to be engaged and responsive in everyday life in the face of individual and collective suffering. How can we remain connected to the aspiration to awaken while also remaining grounded in the world with the intention to benefit others.
The Buddha encourages us in this way: “Perceiving one’s own benefit, one should practice tirelessly. Perceiving the benefit to others, one should practice tirelessly. Perceiving the benefit to both, one should practice tirelessly.”
