Update: 2025-03-10

Description

In this episode we're once again joined by Richard Josephson for a Dharma discussion centred around family life as a vehicle for practicing Buddhist and general liberation teachings. With over 50 years of practice experience both as a monk and a family man, Richard Josephson is perfectly placed to give a wise perspective on how we can best practice, whatever our circumstances.

Listen for insights on:

Why you should or shouldn't become ordained
The challanges of being a monk or nun
How to find time in family life to practice well
How to cultivate an attitude and find motivation to pursue the noble path
How to find stillness and release from stress no matter what
