Outlining our inevitable oneness with the world, Buddhist scholar Jack Petranker joins Raghu to explore letting go of habitual stories and fully inhabiting each moment.
Krishna Das’s perspective on the stories we tell ourselves
Treating each moment as an ongoing adventure
The logic of experience and our inevitable oneness with the world
The habitual beliefs that get us into trouble
Ways in which the self makes us small
Causality vs. the truth of the way things are
The quiet courage to accept whatever arises
“If we learn to inhabit our experience fully, then, every moment becomes a kind of ongoing adventure and opportunity to open out into our experience in new ways. That’s really what I mean when I talk about being one with the world. In the logic of experience, we are inevitably one with the world—there’s no choice in the matter.” –Jack Petranker
