DHARMA OCEAN PODCAST

Episode 45: Spirituality in the Modern World

The journey of meditation shows us how our ideas about everyday life are small, regimented, and suffocating. In this talk, Reggie explains that modern spirituality requires a certain bravery, a willingness to be dismantled by the raw reality of our humanity in the midst of everyday circumstances. It’s a journey that requires trust in the radical longing to open up our entire being in a completely undefended way. This approach to spirituality, he says, “is not for all people, but for the people it is for, there is a hunger to know what’s going on beyond reactivity, stories, and defensiveness. When we allow this hunger, then life becomes very interesting.”

This talk was given at a public program Reggie taught in Boulder, CO in 2011.
