“How can I learn to be a better partner?” 

“Am I the Scrooge in my relationship?”

“What is the secret to a happy marriage?”


What would you do if a trio of spirits showed up at your bedside tonight and asked you to examine your past, your present, and your future?

Today’s episode of Sex, Love & Elephants features a Dharma Talk I gave recently exploring the themes of the Charles Dickens' classic A Christmas Carol through a Buddhist lens. 

This talk delves into the three root poisons of suffering—greed, hatred, and ignorance—and how they manifest in Ebenezer Scrooge's life. After visits from the three spirits, Scrooge confronts his past, present, and future, ultimately leading to his redemption and a deeper understanding of interconnectedness and compassion. 


In This Episode, You Will Learn:

(01:10) The concept of Dharma can feel foreign to what we learned as children through a Western lens

(07:42) We always have a choice to begin again

(12:06) Ignorance is poison

(28:53) If we can see the bricks that led to the wall in front of our heart, we can demolish it

(59:02) We love possibilities of redemption and change
