Podcast S5 EP77
The Mindful Heart: "The World Is Not the World"
Diamond Sutra Section 96 × Mindfulness Meditation × The Life of 張忠義

He is one of a pair of conjoined twins
but also a complete and singular soul, walking a path no one else could walk.

He didn’t choose this life,
yet he responded to it with stillness, compassion, and quiet strength.

In this episode, we turn to a timeless line from the Diamond Sutra:

"The world is not the world; it is merely called the world."

A phrase that invites us back to the present moment to loosen our grip on identity, form, and expectation.
Through mindfulness, and through the story of Zhongyi,
we ask not just how he lived…
but how we might live more awake.

Highlights:
A guided meditation on letting go and coming home
The early life of Chang Zhongyi: from being defined to becoming whole
“Sometimes, it’s not he who needs help
it’s us who need to awaken.”

May this episode help you see more clearly:
The world is not what it seems and life, even in pain, is always deeper and more spacious than we think.
