Mindfully retelling ancient Buddhist Dharma stories, Jack reflects on what it means to live with a wise heart.

“For someone who wants to break free inside of the forces of ignorance, delusion, habit, and sleepwalking—you must really see that there’s something greater than just getting through each day, and devote yourself in some fashion to it.” – Jack Kornfield

In this episode, Jack opens us to:
  • Modern retellings of ancient Buddhist Dharma stories
  • The courage and mystery of the heart
  • The law of karma and the power of intention
  • The compelling nature of spiritual practice
  • Buddha’s past life as a lion living on an island with an elephant friend
  • Discovering what is love, and what is goodness in the heart
  • Learning to listen to where our actions comes from

“Find a place in yourself—in your being, your heart—that really wants to understand what life and death is about, that wants to live in a different way. Let that be the source of your inspiration, the source of your guidance.” – Jack Kornfield
