In this episode, Bhante Sathi explores the intricate relationship between time and desire through the lens of Buddhist teachings. He explains how desire arises, evolves, and often fades once fulfilled — yet rarely brings lasting satisfaction. Drawing on Pali concepts like Tanha (craving) and Chanda (interest or inclination), Bhante highlights how our desires can be shaped by culture, ego, and personal perception, and how awareness plays a key role in relating to them skillfully. Whether desire feels positive or negative, its true nature lies in how we engage with it.

In this lovely talk following Sangharakshita's death, Ratnaguna urges us to get to know Bhante through his poetry. He then gives us a commentary on some of his favourite poems.

Dayanandi shares how she was encouraged and inspired by Bhante's teachings on the Bodhicitta spirit. "Bhante encouraging shared collective community the creative conditions challenged us to go beyond us. As we were young and had a lot of energy, we took on Bhante's task of creating the conditions for the Bodhicitta to arise. It was spiritually nurturing to attend Bhante's lectures. They were very strong. It was through Bhante's dedicated, clear mind and friendliness, by him sharing his heartfelt inspiration, that contributed to the energy and spark in our dedication to his vision." This talk was given at Dharmadhara in California, USA, on a women's ordination training retreat as part of the series The Bodhisattva Path for the Triratna Buddhist Community, 2019. *** This month's FBA Podcasts and Dharmabytes celebrate the one hundredth anniversary of Sangharakshita's birth, founder of the Triratna Buddhist Community and Order.

What is Pureland? In this podcast, Bhante Sathi explains that the Pure Land is one of the higher planes of existence described by the Buddha, where beings with pure minds are free from desire and naturally progress toward enlightenment. While Pure Land practice often aligns with esoteric beliefs, Bhante clarifies that true progress comes from aligning one's mind and actions with wisdom and practice, not from passive belief.

Bhante Sathi explores the Buddha's teachings on the shadow self, explaining that rather than labeling parts of ourselves as “dark” or separate, we should mindfully recognize and transform unwholesome qualities like greed, anger, and self-centeredness through wisdom and compassion. He discusses Mara, the internal force of delusion and self-attachment, illustrating how enlightenment arises from overcoming these inner obstacles with mindful awareness. Ultimately, Bhante emphasizes that true growth comes from shining the light of wisdom on our imperfections, cultivating wholesome qualities such as generosity, patience, and loving-kindness to dissolve the shadows within.

Tejopala likens the current global climate crisis to a village with a fire that threatens everyone in it and asks what a community of monks living in such a village might do in such circumstances. He also draws on the advice given by Urgyen Sangharakshita in his talk given in 1984 called 'Buddhism, World Peace and Nuclear War' as to how Buddhists should act to address an overwhelming existential threat, in which Bhante urges civil resistance. This talk was given at the Melbourne Buddhist Centre as part of Buddhist Action Month, 2019. *** Help us keep FBA Podcasts free for everyone!

You might think of love as a fleeting feeling, reserved for family, friends, or romance, but what if love was just the starting point? What if true transformation came not from emotion, but from practice?In this heartwarming episode of Cultivating Inner Peace, host Anshu Bahanda is joined by Venerable Bhante Sujatha, a Buddhist monk and the founder of the Blue Lotus Temple in the U.S., to explore loving kindness not as a mood or virtue, but as a daily discipline that reshapes how we relate to others, to pain, and to ourselves.Together, they unpack what it means to turn love into a lifestyle, and how practicing loving kindness can rewire your reactions, shift your inner dialogue, and soften even your toughest relationships, including the one you have with yourself. Through real-life stories, gentle wisdom, and unexpected truths (like why competition and kindness cannot co-exist), Bhante shows us how love becomes stronger, deeper, and freer when it is trained like a muscle.Have you ever struggled to forgive someone? Or found it easier to be kind to others than to yourself? Or wondered if kindness makes you weak?

Show notes / PDF & Infographic / Free Audiobook / Have you ever wondered why your brain feels like it's on a hamster wheel that never stops? Today, we're diving into the game-changing classic Mindfulness in Plain English – the book that's transformed millions of scattered minds into islands of calm. Key figures and topics: Mindfulness, Meditation, Present-Moment, Awareness, Self-Discovery, Buddhism, Self-awareness, Meditation, buddhism, personal development, Mindfulness, Audible, Mindfulness in Plain English, Vipassana Meditation, StoryShots, Bhante Henepola Gunaratana, Eight Mindful Steps to Happiness, Journey to Mindfulness, Bhavana Society, story shorts The episode explores Bhante Henepola Gunaratana's book 'Mindfulness in Plain English', offering an in-depth look at mindfulness meditation and its potential to transform personal awareness. The book provides a practical, accessible approach to meditation that demystifies the practice, showing how it can help individuals break free from mental habits, reduce stress, and find inner peace. Gunaratana, a Buddhist monk with over 80 years of teaching experience, presents mindfulness as a method for understanding one's inner world and developing a more present, conscious way of living. The episode delves into key concepts of mindfulness, such as the illusion of a fixed self, the impact of ego, and the importance of observing thoughts without judgment. It explains Vipassana meditation as a technique for developing awareness, helping practitioners learn to focus on their breath, notice sensations and emotions without labeling them, and gradually build mental strength and clarity. The discussion emphasizes that mindfulness is not about achieving a mystical state, but about developing a practical skill that can be integrated into daily life. Ultimately, the book and podcast suggest that mindfulness is a transformative practice that extends beyond formal meditation, offering benefits in personal growth, emotional regulation, and interpersonal relationships. By practicing consistent awareness, individuals can learn to respond more thoughtfully to life's challenges, reduce suffering caused by disconnection from the present moment, and cultivate a deeper appreciation for everyday experiences. The key message is that mindfulness is accessible to everyone and can be developed gradually through patient, consistent practice. (00:00:00) Introduction (00:03:06) About Bhante Henepola Gunaratana (00:03:34) Modern life lacks fulfillment (00:10:38) How to Begin Meditation. (00:12:32) Embrace the struggle. (00:13:43) Why does meditation feel difficult? Mindfulness is a practical approach to finding inner peace by developing present-moment awareness, not an esoteric or religious practice Most human suffering stems from living in the past or future, rather than experiencing the present moment fully Meditation is a skill anyone can learn, requiring only consistency and patience, not special abilities or long hours of practice The 'self' is an illusion - our identity is fluid, and we can free ourselves from ego-driven reactions by observing our thoughts without judgment External achievements and material possessions cannot bring lasting happiness; true contentment comes from internal awareness and acceptance Vipassana meditation helps train the nervous system to respond calmly to stress by developing insight into the impermanent nature of thoughts and emotions Mindfulness is a transformative practice that extends beyond formal meditation, potentially improving relationships, emotional regulation, and overall life satisfaction Personal growth through mindfulness is gradual - small, consistent practices accumulate to create profound changes in perception and response to life's challenges Related books: The Power of Now Learn more about your ad choices.
