In this episode, Wendy speaks with Tibetan Buddhist teacher Mingyur Rinpoche about how contemplative practice can lead us to awareness, compassion, and wisdom. Their conversation covers many topics, including:
his involvement in early contemplative research;
translating concepts between Buddhism and science;
what Buddhists mean by "emptiness";
non-conceptual meditation, open presence and foundational awareness;
the three kinds of self, and which one is like shaving foam;
the problem of othering;
making friends with panic and difficult emotions;
the experience of a "wandering" retreat;
and building trust through contemplative practice.
