In this episode we discuss the motivations behind why awakened beings can feel called to teach. We explore how wisdom naturally emerges during awakening. 

We note the seeker's unwavering focus on ending suffering and uncovering liberating truths, and talk about the concept of the "two-turnings," transitioning from inner exploration to outward engagement after liberation.

We discuss how our ability to connect with others depends on our ability to explore our own depths and how contingent identities don't offer much safety.

We also explore the notion of the Bodhisattva as a description of awakened tendencies. Particularly in regard to the spontaneous emergence of compassion and loving-kindness. We'll also reflect on the humbling realization that  “I’m not doing anything.”

From valuing small acts of kindness to embracing broken-heartedness as a gateway to compassion, we'll touch on various paths to understanding happiness and the nature of suffering.

We talk about nondoership and how that idea is received differently in different states of consciousness.

And we discuss how the work of spiritual mentorship and teaching is richly beneficial for both mentor and mentee.

As always, much more besides. Enjoy.
