Dharma and Phish
12/08/21 • 31 min
It all starts here! We discuss our first Phish shows since three-year retreat and COVID; address the discomfort of starting a meditation practice, and how that’s the same discomfort we are usually trying to distract ourselves from (hint: the distraction doesn’t actually help); and introduce the Buddha’s first teaching, The Four Noble Truths, and some ways we can apply it in life and at a concert.

Mindfulness and Awareness (Gumbo)
With Phish's spectacular Starlake '97 Gumbo in mind, we delve into the relationship between mindfulness and awareness; how cultivating our ability to place our attention brings about volition; what "monkey mind" is, and how our mindfulness can counteract it; and how we each possess the potential for transcendence in every moment.
Musical pairing: 8/13/97 Starlake "Gumbo"
