Tricycle Week - Exploring Emptiness by Courtland Dahl

10/16/24 • 23 min

Even though they are different authors, the writers of yesterday post and today’s explore the theme of emptiness and self. While they are quite different views on the same subject, there is one similarity: by understanding what is not present, we can understand what truly is. Courtland ends his article with a wonderfully succinct and impactful meditation.

Tricycle Week - Welcome to Delusionville by Peter Coyote

It’s been way too long since we were graced by the wisdom of Tricycle, the Buddhist magazine. But thankfully, that ends this week, starting off with a phenomenal article by Peter Coyote. In it, he helps us explore the nature of self. Or more to the point, the absence of self. He let’s us know that when we given up the need to define ourselves, we understand we are connected to everything. You won’t want to miss this one.

Tricycle Week: Everyone Wants to Save the World... by Mark Van Buren

On day three of Tricycle week I thought we would switch gears and read about something a bit lighter, compassion. Mark Van Buren shares a great post that talks about the ways the little things we do to end people’s suffering, are just as impactful as the bigger things.
