  • Contemporary yet authentic

    I appreciate the way these talks engage aspects of modern life that had not yet arisen at the time that most Buddhist discourses were composed. This makes their wisdom more readily available to someone such as myself. But make no mistake: this isn’t “Buddhism Lite.” These talks will make you question yourself if you listen to them.
