Compassion doesn't obliterate someone's karma... slowly over the years, you train your mind by repeating the practice over and over and over.
Ever wondered how an ancient practice can be adapted to our modern lives? In this episode of 'Against The Stream', Noah Levine, the founder of Dharma Punx and Refuge Recovery, breathes new life into the age-old practice of Tonglen. Known for his unique blend of Buddhist teachings and practical wisdom, Noah dives into how Tonglen—a meditation technique where you breathe in suffering and breathe out compassion—can be a game-changer for anyone grappling with life's challenges.
He emphasizes the importance of humility and acknowledges our human limitations, suggesting that compassion isn't an overnight transformation but a gradual journey. Noah also offers practical advice on dealing with fear, especially those nagging, repetitive fears that can hold us back. And it doesn't stop there; he explores the role of generosity in Buddhism, showing how giving can be a powerful antidote to suffering.
Whether you're new to meditation or a seasoned practitioner, this episode offers valuable insights and actionable steps to cultivate a more compassionate life. Tune in and discover how ancient wisdom can meet modern challenges.
