“Amazing teacher and podcast. Here’s a sample:
“We’re here to increase our vulnerability, not our endurance. Our practice should soften, not harden us. It should allow us to open our hearts to our whole life, our whole emotional world; sadness, grief, love, because we’re willing to take our life whole. All the parts of our life including the losses, the inevitable ending that we will all come to. This very body, this very mind, is Buddha. How is the wisdom and compassion of Buddha expressed here? Wisdom to realise we have to take life whole, with it’s impermanence, with its pain, and yet see the perfection of life.
Our task now is to love the mutilated world. We have to love our mutilated life, our mutilated bodies, the bodies that will be ravaged by time, inevitably.
Compassion, is that we love each other in our imperfection. That we see ourselves as Buddha means that we are not forever falling short of some ideal. That we treat each other as Buddha’s, not as failing Buddha’s always falling short, doing something wrong. We cherish the uniqueness and vulnerability of ourselves and each other. This is what are practice can bring us to. Not a calm likeness. Not a hard capacity to endure. But an opening of our hearts.”
