25 Years Sober: Darren Littlejohn on the Present, Past, and Bodhisattva Practices

The nowness of now. But is what we think is the now really the present moment, or a pervasive, consistent layer of trauma from the past?
Ever wondered how your past shapes your present? In this episode of 'The 12-Step Buddhist Podcast', Darren Littlejohn marks a significant milestone—25 years of sobriety. But it’s not just a celebration; it's an exploration of how our past traumas influence our current experiences. Darren delves into the 30th practice from the 37 Practices of a Bodhisattva, questioning whether what we perceive as the 'now' is truly free from the shadows of our past.
He also brings in insights from Internal Family Systems and discusses the concept of emptiness within Buddhist recovery. This episode is a treasure trove of practical wisdom and deep reflections, perfect for anyone navigating the complexities of addiction recovery. Tune in to hear Darren's unique blend of personal experience and Buddhist teachings, offering you tools to heal and grow.
