This episode explores the deep connections between movement, body awareness, identity, and belonging, especially as experienced by people who navigate multiple cultures. The conversation dives into Marcia Bonasso Warren's unique approach to “embodied code switching,” and the role of somatic awareness in feeling at home within our bodies across shifting cultural contexts.Key Topics Discussed:What is Somatic Awareness?Originates from the Greek word for “body” (soma).Goes beyond physical presence—encompasses bodily signals, wisdom, five senses, and cultural body norms.Importance of asking: “What have my cultures told me about my body?” and recognizing how societal norms affect our sense of self.Belonging and the BodyThe sensory cues that signal belonging or otherness, from environmental context to body types reflected around us.Somatic experiences of cultural fit and difference, such as feeling physically at ease or vigilant in certain environments.Embodied Code Switching & The SIA LoopSIA Loop: Sensation → Interpretation → Action. A tool for attuning to both internal body messages and cross-cultural cues, slowing down reactions, and choosing responses intentionally.The cross-cultural transition is often first detected in the body, not the mind.Examples include changing posture, tone, or movement in response to different cultural expectations (e.g., "shrinking" or shifting vocal inflection in Tokyo).The Power of Mirroring and Interpersonal SynchronyMirroring (matching movement, posture, or inflection) naturally helps connect with others and foster belonging - as long as it's authentic, not imitation.Shared rhythms (like dance, group chants, celebrations) create community and signal inclusion even without shared language.Memory, Longing, and Grief in the Globally Mobile LifeBodily memories connect us to places and cultures left behind—there's always a sense of longing (“saudade”) for experiences that cannot fully accompany us home.Creating rituals or writing can help honor these connections and process grief.Advice for Global Nomads and Culturally Fluid IndividualsYou have permission to own your unique, multifaceted identity.Being able to cross cultures with awareness is a superpower—it enhances empathy, flexibility, and compassion.Allow yourself time to know both your hosts and yourself; notice, listen, and include your body in this ongoing conversation.“Home is in my body now, because this is what's taken me to all those places. And I still have me.”“There's always a part of you that can't come with you to the next place, but your body has a memory of those places, and because of that, it stays connected.”“Folks that move in between cultures and with different cultures, with conscious awareness... it's a superpower. And I don't say that lightly.”ResourcesBook: Movement and Identity: Multiculturalism, Somatic Awareness and Embodied Code SwitchingWhere to find Marcia Bonasso Warren: https://www.linkedin.com/in/marcia-bonato-warren/https://www.youtube.com/@MarciaBonatoWarrenhttps://www.facebook.com/MarciaBonatoWarrenConnect With UsIf you enjoyed this episode, subscribSupport the showHome is Where Your Story Crosses Borders!We aim to inspire expat solutions, by helping you navigate global living with ease and grace.

Welcome to the final installment of my interview with Beth Macy, award-winning and New York Times bestselling author of “Factory Man,” “Dopesick,” and her newest book, “Paper Girl,” which uses a blend of memoir and reporting to examine the rural-urban divide through the lens of her hometown of Urbana, Ohio.Beth was the first in her family to go to college, an event that drastically changed and maybe even saved her life. She's gone on to become a Guggenheim fellow and a Nieman fellow for journalism at Harvard.In today's episode we find out what Beth knows at this moment about where her personal throughline is leading her next. And I ask her my fast final five questions about what she's reading, watching, listening to, and fantasizing about eating.We cover:- Why she's feeling called to activism- How she patched things up with her brother, who's on the other end of the political divide- Robert Guy, the Kentucky writer whom Beth considers her “Appalachian sensei”- The Netflix show “about England before it was England” her hairdresser told her about that she loved- Palmyra, her younger son's band that's touring–keep an eye out!Connect with Beth on Bluesky and/or Instagram @bethmacy.For full show notes with links to everything we discuss, plus bonus photos!, visit katehanley.substack.com.Thank you for listening!And thanks to this week's sponsor, Air Doctor Pro.

I greet you in Jesus' precious name! It is Friday morning, the 14th of November, 2025, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today. We go to the Book of Exodus 34:29: ”…Moses did not know that the skin of his face shone while he talked with Him.” Moses had just come down from Mt Sinai with the Ten Commandments. He had spent 40 days and 40 nights in the presence of our Heavenly Father, and his face was shining like the sun. Isn't that amazing? We go to Matthew 17:2: ”…and He was transfigured before them. His face shone like the sun, and His clothes became as white as the light.” That was Jesus, our Saviour, when He went up the Mount of Transfiguration. He shone like the sun when He met with His Heavenly Father. Folks, that can happen to you and me as well if we spend time with the Lord Jesus Christ, then we start to become more and more like Him. Moses had to wear a veil over his face. The people were too scared to come near Him because of the presence of God in His life. Surely that's how we should be as well. People should want to come and be with us because they see the love and the presence of God in our lives, not so much by the way we look, but rather by the way we act and live. You know, little children are very good judges of people who know God. They are drawn to people like that. I've seen them. They'll hang around and stand around and be close to people who spend time with God.I want to tell you about a man that made a big impression in my life when I was a new Christian, many many years ago. His name was Reverend Tom Parker and his dear wife, Gladys. They came all the way from Yorkshire, England and they became the ministers of the little church here in Greytown, one of the dearest men I think I've met in my life. He had a hard life. He was in the Second World War, serving on submarines. He never complained and was always gentle. He wasn't the greatest preacher that I've ever heard but he gave off the presence of Jesus wherever he went. I used to love just sitting, listening to him talking and he would get so caught up in the Holy Spirit, that you battled to follow him when he was preaching, but I want to tell you, he gave the presence of God wherever he went.You and I today as well, people just want the love of God and they are desperate to meet with the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords.Today, let's be Jesus to them. God bless you and goodbye.

Dean is away at COP, so you're getting a classic ep this week. But, don't worry! we'll have something new next week. --------------Folks, we're back at it. Last week, we refreshed our memories about the Pope's climate encyclical Laudato Si and how it connected with things like degrowth and dependency theory. But this week, we're back with some breaking news. The Vatican has released Francis' most recent apostolic exhortation Laudate Deum, and we will talk through it.Last time, we pulled out some of Francis' thoughts around dependency and the economy, and in this Laudate Deum, he's back with a lot of similar themes, but this time, he's way more cranky about it all––which makes sense given that Laudato Si came out eight years ago and things have only gotten worse.So, in this episode, we will talk through Laudate Deum and see what's changed and what's stayed the same in those eight years.

The story of Saikat Chakrabarti begins in a time when his parents' and ancestors' country was being torn apart, almost literally. In this episode, meet and get to know Saikat. These days, he's busy knocking on doors and otherwise hitting the ground in a bid to represent San Francisco in the US Congress. As I write this, just last week, Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi announced that she would not run for a 20th term. Timing! Let's go back to mid-Nineteenth Century India. Because his dad's family is Hindu, they were forced to relocate after Indian/Pakistani partition, fleeing their home country of Bangladesh for Kolkata (Calcutta) in India. Folks had warned Saikat's grandfather, a school teacher, to leave, and they did. Once in Kolkata, his grandfather opened a school largely for the kids of other refugees living in the area. Owing to the school's success, he was able to secure a one-bedroom apartment for his family of 12—he, his wife (Saikat's grandmother), and 10 kids, including Saikat's father. Saikat has been back to that apartment. He says that, walking around that neighborhood all these years later, folks still recognize his dad thanks to what his grandfather did for them and their family. His mom had it better than his dad. But still, she went to a school with dirt floors. Saikat looks to his ancestors' struggles—the communities they were part of, and how those communities came together to address issues the government neglected—for inspiration today. When his dad was young, a friend took him to an office where he was pitched to come to the United States. There was a whole set-up. The sell was simply the so-called American Dream. Saikat's parents met in India through an arrangement. Their respective parents knew someone who set it all up. They met and got married about a week later in a field. The visa his dad had applied for at that office came through after he'd been married, making it a bigger decision than it would've been if he were still single. He was also the primary earner in his own family, and they didn't want him to leave. He decided to take that leap regardless. His dad showed up in the US with $8 in his pocket and no job yet secured. He slept on a friends' couch in Manhattan and hit the pavement, résumé in hand. And it worked. He got a job. Saikat's dad had studied civil engineering in college. His first job in his new country was with a company that built skyscrapers … NYC skyscrapers. It was 1979. Saikat's mom came to join her husband soon after, and they had their first kid, Saikat's older sister, while living in Queens. His dad and his mom also experienced their first cold-weather winter that year. After a stint in New York, Samir moved his family to Pittsburgh. He had visited there in the summer, liked it, got a job offer, but relocated in the winter. Once again, the weather got the better of the young family. Seeking a warmer climate, they moved to Texas, first to Houston, and then to Fort Worth. At this point in the podcast, I decided to do something I've never done in the eight years since Storied: San Francisco began. And that's because I've never had any guests on the show who are from where I'm from. I chose to dork out with Saikat about my hometown. Thank you for indulging us (me, really). The first question I had for Saikat is: What hospital were you born in? Harris Methodist. Holy shit, same! He asked me my age (52), what schools I went to (Bruce Shulkey Elementary, Wedgwood Middle School [Saikat went there for one year], and Southwest High School). What a fun turn on this podcast, me rattling off the schools I went to like born-and-raised San Franciscans do. Heh. I digress into a sidebar about the race riot that happened at my high school during my junior year. You'll have to listen, or you can read a little more about it here. Then we get to hear about Saikat's experience growing up in the same city. His family lived in a suburb (apparently not far from where my parents still live), and he describes his early life as fairly standard—hanging out with friends, going to the mall (the same mall I was a regular at a decade or so before). But, being an Indian-American, Saikat experienced racism I was privileged enough to avoid. Saikat makes a distinction, though, between intentional, malicious racism and what I'd call accidental or unintentional racism. It's an important distinction, and he says most of what he experienced in Fort Worth was the less-harmful variety. He summarizes his childhood thusly—family, school, the Bengali-American community in Fort Worth. One member of that community, Saikat's best friend from childhood, lives downstairs from him in San Francisco today. His whole world in high school was, as Saikat puts it: hip-hop, basketball, and math. He got into Harvard, which he says he didn't expect. Many of his friends went to UT Austin (my alma mater), and he figured he'd go there, too. But he wasn't about to pass up the opportunity to attend one of the most highly regarded universities in the country. But Harvard was a culture shock for Saikat. The Fort Worth community he'd known all his life was working- and middle-class. The student body at Harvard was largely kids who came from money and had wildly different interests than he did. Saikat went into his shell his freshman year. As he emerged from that shell, he found his people at Harvard. In 2007, Saikat graduated from Harvard with a degree in computer science. He'd spent a summer in San Francisco between his junior and senior years, and loved it. All his life, The City had been presented as this place where "cool shit happened." Movies, music, TV shows, skateboarding, the LGBTQIA and civil rights movements … and of course, the fledgling internet. Tech and social justice—both existed in a cutting-edge environment here. He lived in New York City for one year immediately after he graduated. We riff on life in NYC vs. life here, agreeing on most aspects. When it was time for Saikat to find a new place to live, San Francisco was the obvious choice. The woman he was dating (his wife and mother of his child today) went to school at Cornell in Ithaca, New York, where he visited often. But even her friends told Saikat that he was much more a NorCal-type. Unable to find housing anywhere else in SF, Saikat first landed in Park Merced. He was happy to have a San Francisco address, but didn't feel like he was living in The City. A trip to The Mission changed that quickly. Check back Thursday for Part 2 with Saikat.

Winston Churchill was clearly one of the most impactful persons of the 20th century—that's why so much has been written about him and his doings. But he made many mistakes, some of them huge. And that's one reason why reading about Churchill can be so fruitful. Join Kevin as we dive into the topic of intentionally learning from folks doing badly and the inadequacy of lesser solutions—with that discussion ranging from Churchill and Britain to John the Baptist and Jesus! // Download this episode's Application & Action questions and PDF transcript at whitestone.org.

The buyout gods rested. The money cannon ran out of gunpowder. The firing squad took a weekend off. Folks, we just got through a Sunday with no college football coaches fired. Do you believe in miracles? Are the firings finished for this season? Well, about that ... On today's episode, hosts Blake Toppmeyer and John Adams discuss a few SEC coaches who might not be out of the woods yet. Kentucky's Mark Stoops and Oklahoma's Brent Venables are OK for now. There's work left to do. Also, with South Carolina imploding, should Shane Beamer consider an exit for Virginia Tech? And, what to make of Toppmeyer's idea that Tennessee's Josh Heupel turn his eye toward Penn State? Adams weighs in. Later in the episode, the hosts disagree on how many SEC teams are national championship contenders. Is it two, or three? Finally, Week 12 picks against the spread!

What if your different wiring isn't something to overcome—it's the foundation for building a business that actually works for you?For years, many neurodivergent professionals have spent enormous energy trying to decode unspoken workplace expectations, masking their natural tendencies, and wondering why traditional employment feels so exhausting. But what happens when we embrace the brains we've got instead of trying to mind-read what's expected of us, and start building businesses that work WITH our wiring instead of against it?In this milestone 50th episode of Thinkydoers, Sara sits down with serial entrepreneur Peter Shankman—creator of five startups with three exits, founder of Help a Reporter Out (now Source of Sources), and co-founder of Mental Capital Consulting. Peter shares his journey from spending decades believing something was wrong with him to building multiple successful companies powered by his ADHD brain.Whether you're a shy introvert wondering how to gain visibility, a neurodivergent professional considering entrepreneurship, or a leader trying to understand how to build truly neuroinclusive workplaces, this conversation will challenge everything you thought you knew about "fitting in."Episode Highlights:How accidentally falling into PR and media led Peter to discover that the only way he could truly thrive was by making his own rules.Why decades of being told you're “disruptive” can feel like a burden—and how unlearning that narrative helped Peter see his neurodivergent brain as an asset, not a liability.Media visibility for introverts: why letting press coverage do the talking can be a game-changer when self-promotion feels impossible.What every company should understand about neurodiversity—and why resistance to change is holding workplaces back.Don't hide your different brain: Peter's powerful message about embracing neurodiversity without shame—it doesn't have to define your whole identity, but it shouldn't be your secret either.Key Concepts Explored:Accidental career in PR and media: How starting out in an AOL chatroom led Peter to discover that he thrives when he creates his own rules.Entrepreneurship as a fit for neurodivergent brains: Why traditional employment can feel restrictive and self-employment allows your wiring to become an asset.The “broken” narrative: Unlearning decades of being told you're disruptive and embracing neurodivergence as a benefit rather than a liability.Media visibility for introverts: How earned media and press coverage can do the talking for you when self-promotion feels impossible.Building neuroinclusive workplaces: Why companies resist change and what they can gain by embracing employees who think differently.Don't hide your different brain: Embracing neurodiversity without shame—it doesn't have to be your entire identity, but it shouldn't be your secret either.Creating your own sandbox: Designing your environment and work to meet your unique strengths and needs.Common Questions Answered:How can I turn neurodivergence into an asset in my career or business?Why do traditional workplaces often feel limiting or frustrating for neurodivergent people?How can media visibility help introverts or high-expertise thinkers get noticed without self-promotion?What does it take to create a neuroinclusive workplace that supports different ways of thinking?How do I embrace my “different brain” without shame or feeling like it defines me?Notable Quotes: "If you didn't know what to do, fake it and figure it out" – Peter Shankman [00:04:00]"The majority of us have been told our whole lives that we're broken. It took me 20 years to realize I could make my brain...

I greet you in Jesus' precious name! It is Monday morning, the 10th of November, 2025, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today. The Book of Acts 7:51 - this is Steven speaking just before they stoned him to death.“You stiff-necked and uncircumcised in heart and ears! You always resist the Holy Spirit; as your fathers did, so do you.” I want to speak about being stiff-necked. Folks, we must be so careful about that one. To be stiff-necked is to be stubborn, to be rebellious, to be disobedient, refusing to listen, not obeying the word of God. To be rigid and obstinate sounds terrible, doesn't it? That's what a stiff-necked person is like.I've got a son on the farm here and he specialises in training horses that are a trouble to their riders. They send the horse here for three or four months, and he schools them correctly, and one of the hardest things that he has to deal with is a horse that has got a stiff neck. The horse refuses to bend its neck. Now he has to teach it to bend its neck and basically to humble itself so that it can respond to instructions. I don't know how much you know about a horse, but I want to tell you that if a horse has got a stiff neck and it starts to gallop away with you, and it gets the bit in its mouth, it is totally out of control. It cannot see where it is going because its head is in the air. It is a danger to itself and to the rider, and by the way to any passersby, any pedestrians. That horse will run over the edge of a cliff, no problem, run through a barbed wire fence. I've seen it myself because it refuses to listen. I know people like that, people who have hurt themselves terribly because they refuse to say sorry, they refuse to change, and they refuse to listen. The children of Israel were like that. Our Father God in heaven spoke about them as being a stiff-necked people and it cost them severely.Today, you and I, let us start to become soft, pliable, teachable, people who are pleasant to be around. Those are the people who have lots of friends. Don't be standing in the corner like that stiff-necked horse that refuses to change. By the way, if it doesn't change, it has to be put down because it becomes a danger to all those around it. Do not be like that. Today, be a child of God and then God will use you. Jesus bless you and have a wonderful day, Goodbye.

Folks from our congregation who went to the Anabaptism 500 day-long event in Zurich, Switzerland tell histories, stories, experiences and places with us. Jonas & Laura Beachy brought us the historical backdrop to our 500 year anniversary. Nancy Chupp brought us thoughts on "Who Are These People" from today, back to the 70's, and back to the 1500s. She reflects on the lack of women's stories and how she didn't know any early Anabaptist women's names - and now she does. John Flickinger brought us insights into Mennonite World Conference and what Mennonites look like around the globe, and milling around outside big churches. Finally, Doug Basinger brought details about the experience itself and about how Mennonites have spread their history and stories. You should ask them all to share their photos, and to explain about that stolen baptismal font.Stories begin at minute markers:Jonas & Laura Beachy, history - 3:22Nancy Chupp, Who Are These People (especially the women) - 16:12John Flickinger, Global Mennonites in Zurich - 24:25Doug Basinger, Zurich event and Mennonite stories - 31:02 Acts 8.26-40Resources:Poem: Sarah Kinsel, “You are like trees planted by streams of water,” Drawing Near: A Devotional Journey with Art, Poetry & Reflection, ed.

Welcome to Season 7! As we are now a quarter of the way through the 21st century, like Bill Murray in Tootsie, Paul and Corey are asking, "What happened?" This season we are looking at the trends, genres, styles, and more that make up cinema of the past 25 years. This week, Paul took a cue from Corey and his son to canvass the youth to see what else they may be watching in the 21st century. Thanks to his friend, Matt, Paul chose Robert Rodriguez's Spy Kids (2001). Folks, it's good! Paul and Corey discuss the charming, homemade, we're-putting-on-a-show quality to the film. It really is a film for the whole family. The only note is that Eleanor, Paul's cat, woke him up at 4:30 a.m. on the day of recording, so Paul is not operating on his normal level.

On episode 104 of Native Land Pod, hosts Tiffany Cross, Angela Rye, Andrew Gillum, and Bakari Sellers go through this week’s election results and take an account of how our Black candidates (and voters) performed. The race for NYC’s mayor dominated the airwaves, where Democratic Socialist Zohran Mamdani won. BUT there were other important races. Black mayors were elected across the country, the governor race in Virginia and New Jersey went solidly Democratic, and State-level elections in the South saw typically conservative seats flip blue. Folks are wondering if Mamdani is the new “face of the Democratic party” which WE think is missing the point. NLP is joined by President Biden’s former press secretary (the first Black woman to hold the job) Karine Jeane-Pierre to discuss some of the election results and Democrat’s media strategy. In her new book, Independent: A Look Inside a Broken White House, Outside Party Lines, Karine shares some pointed critiques of a party she no longer identifies with, and our hosts ask some pointed questions of Karine. And our hosts respond to your questions! There’s an interesting one about infiltrating the Republican party and another from a chef asking who is keeping our legacy “recipes.” If you’d like to submit a question, check out our tutorial video: http://www.instagram.com/reel/C5j_oBXLIg0/ and send to @nativelandpod.

There are places where the veil feels thinner—where laughter echoes in empty forests, where shadows on the roadside burn brighter than the night around them, and where voices call your name though no one is there. Some of our listeners have stood in those places, and tonight, they share what they found waiting. From strange lights and woodland whispers, to blacker-than-black beasts and the hag who leans close enough to breathe your fear, these are the kinds of encounters you don't just remember—you carry them with you. Volume 12 of our Listener Stories dives deep into the unexplained, the terrifying, and the beautifully bizarre.

(Lander, WY) - ALCHEMY: An Artists' Cooperative, located at 202 Main Street in Lander, has officially reached the 10-year marker as a Main Street business. To celebrate this milestone, Alchemy will be hosting a 10th Anniversary Disco Party this Friday, November 7, from 4 to 8 PM. There will be music, drinks (including cocktails with choke-cherry mixers!), and appetizers available for attendees, who are encouraged to wear their best disco outfits. Folks will also be able to take advantage of a rare 10% discount at the party and during that Friday's normal business hours, as well as the following day on the 8th. Alchemy's normal business hours are Monday through Saturday, 10 AM to 6 PM. Attendees will also get a chance to meet some of the new artists who have recently joined the co-op. Co-op artists Shawna Pickinpaugh and Lennie Poitras recently stopped by KOVE's Coffee Time to chat about the celebration and to provide some history on the now-decade-old business. Check out the full interview below!

From a downloaded document from one of my online dharma dialogs — dated June 8, 2016, but otherwise unidentified — we find the following definitions of the Four Immeasurables of Buddhism: Metta (loving kindness) Karuna (compassion)Mudita (sympathetic joy or empathy) Upekkha (equanimity) I have always felt that the immeasurables of Zen practice are more important than those aspects subject to measurement. For example, it is more important in doing meditation, zazen, to never give up, as MatsuokaRoshi would often encourage us, than how long we sit when we do, how often, how frequently, how regularly, etc. More important than the quantitative dimension is the qualitative.Folks bring this up in dokusan frequently, saying they know they need to “sit more.” I ask them when do they think they can do that. You cannot sit more in the past — it's too late. You cannot sit more in the future, because it is not yet here, though you can plan to do so — and possibly set yourself up fordiscouragement by failing to live up to your own expectations — been there, done that. The only time you can do more zazen is when you are doing it. You can do zazen more by refraining from doing anything else while you are on the cushion. Such as daydreaming, worrying, planning, ruminating, regretting, and so on. Turn up the intensity knob. The list is followed by an extension of the definitions: The ease of equanimity, the full-heartedness of love, the tenderness of compassion, the radiance of joy. There follows a brief “prayer,” a term we do not often see in Buddhist teachings, a “short version” attributed to H.H. the Dali Lama:The Four immeasurables are found in one brief and beautiful prayer: May all sentient beings have happiness and its causes,May all sentient beings be free of suffering and its causes, May all sentient beings notbe separated from sorrowless bliss, May all sentient beings abide in equanimity, free of bias,attachment and anger.This sounds very similar to the familiar Metta Sutta, or Loving Kindness Sutra, from the Soto Zen liturgychanted often in Zen temples, though finding our “bliss” is not a term I would use as a goal or objective of Zen practice. While human beings are included in the panoply of sentient beings that we pray may be happy, it is also acknowledged that human beings can be a significant part of the problem, the cause of unhappiness and sorrow in their fellow sentient beings. Needless to say, we “pray” in the sense of earnestness — not to a god, to Buddha, nor to a specific bodhisattva. Our basic prayer is that we wake up, as soon as possible.It should be equally needless to point out that the prayer, or wish, for all beings to be happy does not imply a rose-colored, magical-thinking belief that somehow just because we pray for it, it shall come to pass that all beings will suddenly become happy, via some “spooky action at a distance” — thank you, Zen Master Einstein.We “transfer merit” at the end of our service because we don't want to suggest that we actually believe we personally accumulate any real merit owing to our devotional activities. Whatever merit there maybe, it must already finitely exist, and can be neither increased or decreased by what we do.Likewise, the practical worldview of Buddhism and Zen dictates that if and when all beings actually do become happy, it will be happy with the causes and conditions of existence just as they are, or in spite ofthem: the unsatisfactory nature of life, being subject to aging, sickness and death, etc ad infinitum. Zen isnothing if not realistic.“Things as it is” is an expression David Chadwick attributes to Shunryu Suzuki Roshi in his charming book, “Crooked Cucumber,” as his condensed expression of one of the central truths of Zen. It does notmean “things as they are.” If it did, there would be no reason to engage in all the necessary discipline andwork of Zen, if it were only to result in things staying the way they are. That is, if our own perception and conception of our own reality did not undergo some kind of meaningful change as a result of our efforts, what would be the point of practicing? Which begs another central question, What kind of change is that?The kind of change that can come about through the practice and study of Zen, particularly itsmeditation, is pointed to in the Heart Sutra, chanted ubiquitously in Zen centers all over the world. The linethat declares, “Given Emptiness, there is no suffering, no end of suffering.” This Emptiness is capitalized tostress the unique meaning of the Sanskrit shunyatta. It is not voidness of existence, or devoid of meaning, but the dynamic nature of change that underlies all existence, the operative meaning of dukkha, usually translated as “suffering.” The suffering that can change through our coming to this insight that Buddha experienced and coached others to find, is of the unnecessary sort — that needless suffering that we heedlessly inflict upon ourselves and others. The suffering that does not — indeed cannot — change is that of the natural type, e.g. sickness, aging and death.Metta, nonetheless, is a worthy and worthwhile aspiration to a frame of mind that, while embracing the universal givens — impermanence, imperfection and insubstantiality — continues to encourage a hopeful mindset, and an engagement in compassionate action for all, toward that ideal of all beings being as happy as is practicable, under the circumstances.However, kindness — and likewise the other three immeasurables — is not at all separable from the immediate circumstances of life. Suffering fools gladly, or humoring others in their delusions or neuroses, is not an act of kindness, but of uncaring, a kind of cop-out. Treating others in ways that may not be helpful, butthat allow one to sustain a false sense that one is being kind, is not truly kind.In Zen, we recognize that the kindest thing to do, with and for others, is sharing the dharma assets, including those aspects that are most adaptable by others, such as the unsurpassably simple method of Zen meditation. But we also recognize that, even then, the effect of Zen training upon their lives is entirely up to them. You can lead a horse to water, et cetera. It requires a sense of modesty and humility to accept that we can actually do very little to help anyone else. And that what we suppose to be the most important kind of help they need may not be so. The most we can do is to expose them to the practice and teachings of Zen — sanzen and zazen — in the midst of the universal, ongoing, relentless pandemic of ignorance. Whether the inoculation against this virus takes, or not, depends upon them.

The elections did not go well for Republicans and New York, Virginia, New Jersey and California (which got what they wanted).

It's Halloween, and I've officially hit rock bottom—dressed head to toe as a Chili's mozzarella stick. Nobody, and I mean nobody, wanted to complete the costume with me. My wife said no. My dog ran away. So here I am, half a mozzarella stick, full of regret, wearing my Radical Rita shirt, still begging Chili's to acknowledge my existence. What are we doing?This week's episode kicks off inside the “Chili's Mozzarella Stick Studios” where I give a full breakdown of spooky stories that somehow got real. First up, Ghost Adventures star Aaron Goodwin finds out mid-episode that his wife was arrested for hiring a hitman to kill him. That's right—she literally tried to turn him into one of the ghosts he's been chasing for 46 seasons. From ghost hunting to murder-for-hire, this story has everything. Netflix true crime, prison pen pals, and a reminder to maybe double-check your spouse's DMs.Then, we head down to Mississippi where the chaos continues. A tractor trailer overturned on I-59, releasing a pack of lab monkeys across the highway. Yes, real monkeys. The kind that make you question whether the apocalypse already started and nobody told us. Officials say they aren't infected with anything, but if you see one in your backyard—maybe don't try to pet it. Meanwhile, in Texas, a Spirit Halloween shopper lost control of their pet monkey inside the store. It's diapered, it's swinging from the rafters, it's dodging animatronics. Folks, leave your monkeys at home.But it wouldn't be a true Halloween episode without a trip into the darkness of global corruption. Over in the UK, Prince Andrew has officially been stripped of his royal titles after his Epstein connections resurfaced. He's no longer a prince, no longer royal, and now going by “Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor.” Imagine being demoted so hard you lose your last name. Buckingham Palace called it “necessary.” Translation: “You embarrassed us on an international level.” What are we doing?And while the world burns, our own government's been shut down for a month. SNAP benefits are about to expire. Forty-two million Americans could lose access to food because politicians would rather argue about who gets credit than actually fix the problem. Banks are running dry, liquidity is disappearing, and nobody's doing their job. Welcome to America, the scariest haunted house of them all.To wrap it up, we talk about Neo, the $20,000 humanoid robot from 1X that supposedly makes your life easier. Except it doesn't. It can barely open a fridge. The company says it's AI-powered, but the demo reveals a guy in another room wearing a VR headset controlling it manually. We're buying expensive robots that can't even fetch water. What are we doing?It's chaos from top to bottom—haunted marriages, royal meltdowns, escaped monkeys, government breakdowns, and robots pretending to be smart. Happy Halloween, folks. Stay safe, tip your servers, and for the love of mozzarella sticks, hit that subscribe button before the Chili's PR team ghosts me too.
