58 - Upajjhatthana Sutta: Subjects for Contemplation
Curious Bodhi
01/14/20 • 8 min
This Sutta is the Buddha's reminder that we all carry the same prospects for aging, sickness, death, separation, and acting in the world. The Buddha reminds us that we harbour our own actions, as all other beings harbour them, too. One person gets sick, but so does another. We are not immune nor separate from these facts. If we can take these facts as facts and not as hindrances, then we grow stronger and rest in the liberative affects of the Dhamma through contemplation, meditation, and practice. - Tipitaka: Anguttara Nikaya: AN 5.57

1 - Introduction: Spirituality is Realistic
Curious Bodhi
10/14/18 • 20 min
Food for every level of awareness, starting right at the beginning: somewhere or nowhere at all. It doesn't matter. Since we're all unique beings in various ages and contexts on this planet, we will all be in different stages of our spiritual development. Don't let that stop you! Dig right in and get into the silly metaphors for a while. Send me a voice message - make it easy, @ https://anchor.fm/curiousbodhi/message

Nowadays, it's preferable to call Hinduism by another name: "Sanatana Dharma", which has Dharma right in the name. The Sanskrit word Dharma has a difficult direct English translation, but the closest is akin to "Cosmic Law". In Indian society, it's no secret that upholding Dharma also has various practical implications for the family, social roles, morality, health and diet, and later on - and preposterously out of context, the caste system. Because Dharma is included in these various systems, the Dharma-code is possible to break. For example, if a woman who knows she should have children refuses to have children, then she is breaking the Dharma. It got so bad at one point in history that Lord Krishna had to come back to earth just to restore Dharma, because the world was so terribly out of order... and this is the Bhagavad Gita. When the Buddha came along, he too uses a similar word: Dhamma (Pali). This is exactly the same Cosmic Law, but it cannot be broken by anything. For example, beings who are professional criminals or people with little interest in morality cannot not follow the Cosmic Law; it is still functioning whether they like it or not. After all, gravity keeps us tethered to the earth whether we like it or not! However, that does not mean there are no repercussions in the Cosmic Order. In the Dhamma, the depiction of Bhavacakra / Wheel of Life and Death, demonstrates how beings are reborn for their actions - endlessly and timelessly - until they become enlightened. So the Buddha takes a broader approach and simply holds out his palms and says: "Friends, from my own direct experience, I have found the way to fall seamlessly into the Cosmic Law, and here are some tools and teachings to help you get there swiftly and easily... without being reborn so many times!"

I interview Jeffrey Segundo, a tattoo artist from Australia who speaks about how hard times can turn into gold from the perspective of the absolute. We met through a series of serendipities, and it was his attraction to our tattoo studio's spiritual vibe that caught his attention (Fifth Dimension Tattoo & Piercing) which is a fascinating reason to choose a job overseas! Jeff covers his background, the law of "I AM", and who he is as a person on this great earth. You can catch Jeff's artwork on Instagram @juxtagram.

3 - Organic & Spontaneous Satsang in London
Curious Bodhi
10/28/18 • 19 min
In this organic Satsang, which means "sacred gathering", we will traverse together to see if we connect on the insights that have been handed my way as of lately. This episode touches on the notions of "nothing" and non-separation; little paradoxes; language; clinging; and even guidance into the ever-present open space of You and what it is to open, open, open up! I even lose my train of thought at one point... that's what happens when you go organic. Send me a voice message - make it easy, @ https://anchor.fm/curiousbodhi/message

9 - Manifestation Takes Time, So Keep Going
Curious Bodhi
12/09/18 • 6 min
I recorded this short episode after a long run outdoors, when insights often arise about the nature of life -- what is the difference between recurring thoughts and those of manifestation? When thoughts and feelings, aka "inspiration" about a project arises, I talk about where this comes from and the inevitable endpoint as manifestation.

10 - The God Button: Bufo Alvarius
Curious Bodhi
12/18/18 • 27 min
In this emotional interview, I catch up with a friend who came face-to-face with Reality via Bufo Alvarius from the Amazonian jungle. "Bufo", for short, is an altogether transcendent experience for the soul, illuminating the gifts that God bestows on humanity -- lest we forget. It is not a trip nor a hallucination but a short travel in the hands of God, our creator and destroyer -- which vastly changes the life of a person for the better during his waking moments on earth.

14 - The 8-Fold Path & The 4 Noble Truths
Curious Bodhi
01/29/19 • 35 min
When the Buddha was enlightened under the Bodhi tree, he became aware of the 4 Noble Truths and the 8-Fold Path. Ultimately, he got this beautiful information by his own initiative. If we are willing to take a look at our own conscious experience, we might begin to let go... Send me a voice message - make it easy, @ https://anchor.fm/curiousbodhi/message
