2 min - A Bird Needs Two Wings: Wisdom and Compassion
The wisdom wing is all the nuts and bolts of Buddha's teachings, the four noble truths (what is suffering, it's causes, that you can get rid of it, and how to do the job). Buddha is the same as a scientist, in that belief is the starting point but you've got to prove it, make it your own experience. Karma and ethics, we create ourselves moment by moment, you are the main cause of you. The vast majority of all humans on this planet have absolutely no idea that what goes on in their mind plays any role at all in their lives. Every thought produces the person I become. The first level of practice is to control the servants of the mind - the body and the speech, because every negative action (an action that harms another) - it will harm you! Ignorance, attachment and anger, the three poisons. If you want to help others, practice compassion; if you want to help yourself, practice compassion. When you're with others, watch your body and speech; when you're on your own, watch your mind.
Questions include - the Dalai Lama's album - Inner World, working with death row prisoners, understanding karma, activism and Buddhism, Nelson Mandela, psychedelic therapy, people who don't want to help themselves, books on Buddhism, practising to improve samsaric existence, do wisdom and compassion grow together, eating meat, karma and ignorance, and daily practice. The Buddhist Society London, 17th June 2020.

About The Workshop is in the Mind
From the publisher's feed
Venerable Robina Courtin weaves a tapestry of modern Buddhist commentary as she illuminates this ancient spiritual path with humor, wit and intensity. This Buddhist program aims to give every listener an opportunity to ponder some of life's deepest questions such as:
"Why do bad and good things happen? Is it karma? How can I overcome insecurity and start to care deeply for other beings? Can I lessen my depression and fears? Is reincarnation real? What is the mind? Exactly what is enlightenment?
A Buddhist nun since the late 1970s, Robina Courtin has worked since then with the Foundation for the Preservation of the Mahayana Tradition, a worldwide network of Tibetan Buddhist activities of Lama Yeshe and Lama Zopa Rinopche. She has served as editorial director of Wisdom Publications, editor of Mandala magazine, and executive director of Liberation Prison Project. Her life, as well as her work with prisoners, has been featured in the documentary films "Chasing Buddha and Key to Freedom".
