We each have to find, or maybe construct, a dharma road upon which we can walk in peace with care and attention – cultivating wellbeing and living a good life. The many forms of Buddhism offer possible dharma roads but there are also other routes that may be just as beneficial. The diversity of world religions and philosophies are testament to the variety of paths that have been, and are being, taken by dharma travellers. In this episode I am going to explore some of the ideas and beliefs espoused by existentialist thinkers – ideas that have proved helpful to many people over the past century and a half. As I proceed, I will mention in passing a few parallels with the ideas and the beliefs of Buddhist thinkers and practitioners. I hope other similarities and differences will become apparent to you as we go along.
