Learn how to access wisdom through intentional action and radical honesty with Buddhist teacher Trudy Goodman.
“When we’re honest we can look at ourselves directly. We can look at our own behavior. We can admit when we made a mistake and we can learn how to change at least some of our ways so that we do not cause that particular kind of harm again.” – Trudy Goodman
In this episode, Trudy Goodman lectures on:
- Discontinuing harmful activities
- Honesty and being direct
- The Dharma as our safety
- The consequences of our actions
- Integrity and looking at our motivations
- The coexistence of Love and Hate
