  • Less politics… more Buddhism.

    2 years ago i would have given this podcast 5 stars. However, I’ve noticed with great sadness that this has become a platform that is less about zen living and Buddhist teachings… and more about politics. Even if done indirectly and in a roundabout way.

With 1000 people attending there, I felt this event was a... more

  • The way out is sometimes in

    This podcast is wonderfully informative and helpful when it sticks to Buddhism and the teachings of the Buddha, but when they stray into politics I just feel embarrassed for them and their Sangha. To think that they have the right view about trans kids (which is child abuse IMO), “climate change”, or Trump is both arrogant and ill informed. They need to get out of their political echo chamber or just stick to what they do best: Buddhism.

  • Truly Amazing

    I found this show a couple months ago and can’t get enough of it! I have gone all the way back to the beginning recently and find the newer episodes just and engaging and easy to listen to as the newer ones. I love how they humanize the monastic’s and the practices. I am grateful for Brother Phap Huu & Jo! Please never stop!
