These talks focus on seeking a practice of meditation that is secular in orientation but framed by Buddhist ethical and philosophical values. Exploring the role of mindfulness in embracing the suffering of life, letting go of the dictates of reactivity, experiencing the calm and clarity of spaciousness, and cultivating creative engagement as a way of being in the world.
Reflections on mindfulness and ethics, including a critique of the nationalist ethics of Burmese monks and the reduction of mindfulness to “McMindfulness.”
