When you understand the dharma, then you can say: oh, this is really what the buddha said. But there are certain things that get said over and over and over, so we're pretty sure that was what he was trying to say.
Imagine blending the wisdom of Buddhism with the practical steps of addiction recovery. That's exactly what happens in this episode of the BRN Podcast, where Kevin Griffin takes the stage. Griffin, a seasoned expert in both Theravada and Mahayana Buddhism, shares his unique perspective on how mindfulness and intention can enhance the 12-step recovery process.
Recorded live at the International Buddhist Recovery Summit, this conversation dives deep into the third noble truth, exploring why sense experiences often leave us unsatisfied and how surrendering to the dharma can lead to profound change. Griffin and the hosts discuss concepts like noble friends and non-self, offering a fresh, transformative take on the 12 steps. Whether you're new to recovery or a seasoned practitioner, this episode promises to be both enlightening and inspiring.
