Teaching Peace

Ch. 3: Mind Matters


Listen Later

In this episode of Teaching Peace, we explore Chapter 3 of the Dhammapada: Mind Matters—a focused reflection on the restless, powerful, and often untamed nature of the mind.

These verses describe the mind as elusive and difficult to control—yet capable of shaping our entire existence. Through a liberationist and trauma-informed lens, Jason Storbakken invites us to consider how taming the mind is central to spiritual practice and personal transformation. What happens when we learn to guide, rather than be ruled by, our thoughts?

Join us as we contemplate the discipline, compassion, and awareness needed to cultivate a mind that leads us not toward harm, but toward healing and peace.
