189 - The One You Feed

Episode 189

dimanche 28 juillet 2024Duration 57:58

Welcome to a unique episode where I'm excited to share the audio of a thought-provoking conversation I recently had with Eric Zimmer, the esteemed host of "The One You Feed" podcast. In this compelling discussion, we delve into the ancient parable of the two wolves that reside within each of us, exploring the profound wisdom behind the teaching that the wolf you choose to nourish ultimately prevails.


Our dialogue centres on the complex topic of suffering, but we also traverse a range of interconnected concepts that shed light on the human experience. This special episode offers a rare opportunity to eavesdrop on an unscripted, in-depth exchange of ideas that I believe you'll find both enlightening and engaging.


So, settle in and prepare for an intellectual journey as we unpack age-old wisdom and apply it to modern life. I'm confident that this unique episode will provide you with fresh perspectives and valuable insights. Enjoy the discussion!

180 - Meditation: The Pause Button for Habitual Reactivity

Episode 180

mardi 16 mai 2023Duration 29:02

In this episode, I delve deeper into how meditation acts as a massive pause button for the cycle of habitual reactivity. I'll explore beliefs, thoughts, emotions, feelings, actions, and consequences, discussing how they influence our lives and the lives of others. We'll look at how we can cultivate skillful habits through meditation or mindfulness. By taking a pause from our habitual ways of living, we can achieve powerful self-reflection and lasting change.


We also examine the two primary types of meditation - fixed attention and open awareness - and why it's essential to practice both to create the Middle Way.


So, take a break from your busy life and give this episode a listen! Let me explain how hitting the pause button in the cycle of reactivity can lead to a more balanced life. Make sure to stay tuned for my upcoming online course, where I'll share specific techniques for both types of meditation.

90 - Ultimate Authority

mardi 29 janvier 2019Duration 17:16

The ultimate authority in your life is YOU. If you're familiar with the Kalama Sutta, you're aware of the teaching to analyze things against your own experience and to be cautious about relying on external sources for authority. Knowing this, why do we still care so much about external authority? In this podcast episode, I will talk about the idea of ultimate authority.

89 - Killing The Buddha

vendredi 11 janvier 2019Duration 18:13

There is a famous quote in the Zen tradition that says “If you meet the Buddha, kill him”. This quote is attributed to Linji a prominent zen master. What does it mean? How can this teaching help us in our day to day lives as we seek to be less habitually reactive? In this episode, I will discuss this koan and dig deeper to see if we can all apply this teaching to our own lives.

88 - Radical Okayness

dimanche 30 décembre 2018Duration 21:43

What is the state of radical okayness? There is a very clear message that seems to permeate through many of the Buddha’s teachings, that is, the importance of getting to know yourself, knowing your own mind. I believe that when we learn to look past our own stories and narratives we have about ourselves, others, and life, we begin to experience a state of radical okayness.

86 - Listening To Understand

mardi 18 décembre 2018Duration 17:33

We seem to really struggle when it comes to having conversations about difficult topics. Are we listening with the intent to understand the other person or are we simply assessing to determine what team the other person is on? Are they team "us" or team "them". In this episode I will discuss the idea of listening to understand.

85 - Sometimes We Try Too Hard

dimanche 2 décembre 2018Duration 16:57

Sometimes we fail because we try too hard, other times because don't try hard enough. The trick is to find the right balance, the space in between, the space that is often referred to in Buddhism as The Middle Way. In this podcast episode, I will discuss the idea of the Middle way in terms of space and time.
