12 July 2021 Leave a Comment

There's a practice called taking refuge. You want to feel safe and protected, you want to feel calm. If you don't learn how to take refuge, you will lose your peace, your feeling of safety, and your calm. You will suffer, and you will make other people suffer.

Each of us has the seed of Buddhahood, the capacity of being calm, being … Continue reading

The mysticism of wide open eyes: How does spirituality connect to social change?

31 May 2017 1 Comment

"Unlike the received dogmas and hierarchies of religious and secular ideologies, spirituality can give us an actual experience of the unity of all things. This experience, when nurtured as a constant practice, roots equality-consciousness, non-discrimination, non-violence and reverence for all people and the earth deep into our core. "All spiritual paths involve the destruction or sublimation of the ego, and a surrendering to something greater than oneself—whether that’s defined in terms of the … Continue reading
