Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Aging in the Dharma (Link #790)
Q: Do you have any advice on shifting our focus from the self to benefiting others as a practice?
Nick suggests examining the belief in the self, applying the three wisdoms of hearing, contemplating, and meditating to deconstruct self-centeredness, which organically leads to caring for others.
Aging in the Dharma (Link #790)
Q: When do we begin dying? Where is the transition between living and dying?
Nick reflects that this transition takes awareness of mortality, often highlighted by aging or illness, illustrating that we are continuously living in that 'Bardo' state since birth.
Time To Take Time (Link #788)
Q: Can you think back to last year and what your aspirations were for 2025, and walk through how this last year has gone according to those aspirations?
Dungse Jampal reflects on his aspirations to engage in travel, busyness, and to be open-hearted, which he feels he achieved well, and expresses a desire to continue this with a sense of ease and not be overly concerned about how things unfold.
Ignorance and Buddhanature (Link #787)
Q: How does this relate to the Lojong slogan 'drive all blames into oneself'?
It's not a contradiction. If we're not blaming ourselves and instead blaming ignorance, we are creating a more realistic picture of what's going on.
Joy, Enthusiasm, Intention (Link #786)
Q: Jill, how do you relate to attachment and love in the context of your journey?
I find that while love is present, it also comes with a complexity of attachment. I try to be aware of this and focus on the joy of connection while letting go of clinging.
