  • Exudes lack of peace and joy

    I don’t mind that he is self-taught and achieved his enlightenment on his own. However, there is a very good reason that monks often wait a decade or more after ordination before being permitted to give Dhamma talks. David’s hurried speaking is a symptom of a lack of maturity in the Dhamma and quite off-putting for those used to Dhamma talks and lectures given by monks or trained laypeople. I believe that he means well and may be knowledgeable, but listeners should be wary of his self-aggrandize... more

  • Thorough and practical

    This is an excellent introduction to the teachings of the Buddha presented in clear and accessible language. Unlike many Buddhist podcasts, this one is practical rather than aspirational, and is a very useful guide and how to start and build a practice. I always thought the goal of the path was enlightenment, but now I know it's enlight-a-ment!

  • Beautiful teachings

    David Roylance is well spoken and direct in his presentation of the Buddha’s teachings. I like to mix it up, sometimes listening to a class on the Pali canon and sometimes taking a weeklong retreat. David’s approach is what I’ve been looking for for many years.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Ep. 1014 - (Group Learning Program) - Chapter 16 - Dissolving the Ego: Ego Serves No Purpose at Wat Tung Yu
Q: What is the ego in practical terms?
It's the combination of personal existence view and conceit that makes the mind cling to self-image, roles, and social superiority or inferiority, and it can be observed in daily actions and speech. The remedy is to understand these two fetters separately and apply appropriate practices to uproot them.
Ep. 1015 - (Group Learning Program) - Guided Breathing Mindfulness Meditation and Student Questions
Q: I'm really new here... what is the way that we are, does that mean that we don't have expectations or pursuing about others in the world, that we always pursuing ourselves, then not?
The unenlightened mind tends to have expectations and cravings, but the teaching encourages recognizing that expectations arise from the mind and should be released; loving others means allowing them to be as they are while pursuing wisdom and compassionate action.
Ep. 1019 - (Pali Canon Study Group) - Exploring The Path to Enlightenment - Volume 4 - (Chapter 11-20)
Q: What is the difference between aversion and dispelling contact?
Aversion is yielding to discontent by blaming external factors; dispelling contact involves wise, discerning retreat from craving to protect the mind and not fuel unwholesome karma.
Ep. 1019 - (Pali Canon Study Group) - Exploring The Path to Enlightenment - Volume 4 - (Chapter 11-20)
Q: How do I maintain joy in daily life when not actively investigating the teachings?
By eliminating the causes of craving,redirecting the mind with right effort, and cultivating unconditioned joy through sustained mindfulness and non-attachment.
Ep. 1019 - (Pali Canon Study Group) - Exploring The Path to Enlightenment - Volume 4 - (Chapter 11-20)
Q: Can some people be more sensitive to noise, or is that all craving and attachment?
All sensitivity is rooted in craving and attachment; recognizing this helps you work with craving itself rather than blaming external factors.
