Larry stepped out of his role as a consultant and into one of advocated in 2009, when the country faced the threat of unconstitutional regulation of the Second Amendment. Larry launched the Gun Appreciation Day project, a successful rebuke of the anti-constitutional efforts.

"Are you sure?"... Perception, the process of recognizing and interpreting, holds immense power. It shapes our lives, our worldview, and how we interpret the news.Before reacting to the stories you hear, pause and ask yourself, "Are you sure?" This simple yet profound question became a lifelong practice for Dr. Larry Ward, inspired by his teacher, Thich Nhat Hanh, the founder of the Plum Village Community of Engaged Buddhism.Nothing can happen without our mind being involved in what comes in and what comes out. And when we cling too tightly to perceptions, says Dr. Ward, we close off the possibility of life itself. True perception is found in a clear mind and an open heart. Release from the thickets of opinions that flow out of modern media.Go deeper with these practice questions:What news stories reinforce your perceptions?What challenges how you perceive the world?Whose voice is missing from this story?What feeling tones were invoked in you when you read the headline? What did you feel in your body?Who will feel better, and who will feel worse, as they read the story?Support the showBeyond the News is made possible through the generous support from Hemera Foundation and the Frederick P.

Mark Russo, 2018 MAPGA Teacher of the Year and Golf Digest ranked instructor, takes you to the dining room table in Orlando, Florida for the PGA Show 2023. Joined by Larry Ward, Tim Conaway, and Chris George, the group discusses subjects from all over the game of golf. Learning environments, what you should be sharing with your coach, and what a good club fitting ACTUALLY is are just a few topics covered. The group also gives you some helpful advice on misconceptions that may be killing your practice and improvement. These nuggets and a whole lot of laughs coming to you from the PGA Show in Orlando!
In this episode, Dr. Larry Ward offers insight on how to listen to your body's reaction to the news—before responding. To take a step back and pause so that you better understand the messages your body is receiving and can then respond in a way that doesn't harm yourself or others. Learning to live in the world with your heart undisturbed by the world is not easy, but it is an essential practice to help us live a life with equanimity. It all begins with recognizing, naming and responding to the sensation in the body as we receive the news. Every news story mentioned, whether from the past or current, is a teaching example. Go deeper:Tracking and creating your own language of your body sensations. Create a journal. Call it “Befriending my nervous system”. Write down the times when you notice sensations in your body that are pleasant, unpleasant or neutral. Create your own language of these three sensations that you uniquely feel. And note how you want to respond to the information you receive in the news.Notes:Buddhist sutra on the Four Foundations of Mindfulness. The first being mindfulness of the body in the body.The vagus nerve. The longest nerve of the autonomic nervous system in the human body. Carrying signals between your brain, heart and digestive system.Somatic practice of tracking bodily sensations.Support the showBeyond the News is made possible through the generous support from Hemera Foundation and the Frederick P.

Larry Ward is the President of Constitutional Rights PAC. The "We Want Don Ron" Movement Launches Calling for Trump-DeSantis Ticket in 2024. Elections.
Today's show rundown: You know, it's kind of interesting, when you buy a new car, the the one you always wanted - there comes a time when you close it up and walk away....you turn around and say to yourself "I love this thing". One day eventually its normal - this is what's happening with Donald Trump and the main stream media. It has become normal for them to just dump on this guy, it has become normal for us to expect this over and over again. Our guest today is returning guest carry Ward, a fellow Advertising & Marketing guy too, who mark says are the smartest guys around. Larry talks to us about his PAC for DONRON - Donald Trump and Ron Desantis. This could provide us with 12 years of repair from the 12 years of Obama that we have been weathering. Chuck has always wanted this, Ron DeSantis to run with Trump. Larry goes into what the struggles could be - they both have big personalities, and big egos. The Media is going to do everything in their power to divide these guys. We could have 12+ years of America First in the White House. Larry says let Ron DeSantis be in charge of all Government Personnel. DeSantis would have 4 years to fill spots with America First people, so in 2028 he could hit the ground running with an administration that would back him. We also do not want Ron DeSantis to leave Florida. Larry Ward brings decades of political, corporate, and non-profit experience and expertise to his role as the head of marketing, experience that allows him to direct a new company to success. From a New York communications and advertising background, Larry turned his attention to Washington in 2002, as a reaction to the over-regulation that was choking the aggressiveness out of capitalism and liberty. His immediate impact was felt where, under the tutelage of political consultant Dick Morris, Larry was able to influence key congressional and gubernatorial elections.

In a recent talk, dharma teacher Larry Ward mentioned living rather than believing. Mary spends time unpacking what this might mean and how one could go about just being present without ties to fixed views and beliefs.Recorded July 21, 2022 in the virtual world
In this episode of For The Wild podcast, we plumb into racial karma and healing systemic trauma in the American context with guest Dr. Larry Ward. Covering the neuroscience of trauma, the habit of racism, and various typologies of systemic trauma, Dr. Ward provides insight into how we might consciously choose to activate our neuroplasticity toward justice rather than collectively rewarding our neuroplasticity for violence and oppression. We are reminded in this episode that we are more than our colonial traumatic memory; we are, in fact, part of the one living reality of the natural world. According to Dr. Ward, cultivating a spiritual practice of awareness of our embeddedness with the world allows us to transcend the conditioning of the colonial mind. Harkening to the potential for anima mundi, the creation of a new world soul, we are invited to lead in the direction of the positive deconstruction of the current world order and to be vigilant in putting our minds and behaviors toward creating generative possibilities for the planet and generations to come. Dr. Larry Ward (he/him) is a senior teacher in Buddhist Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh's Plum Village tradition, author of the book America's Racial Karma, and co-author with his wife Peggy of Love's Garden, A Guide To Mindful Relationships. Dr. Ward brings twenty five years of international experience in organizational change and local community renewal to his work as director of the Lotus Institute and as an advisor/dharma teacher. He holds a PhD in Religious Studies with an emphasis on Buddhism and the neuroscience of meditation. Larry is a knowledgeable, charismatic and inspirational teacher, offering insights with personal stories and resounding clarity that express his dharma name, “True Great Sound.” Music by Daniela Lanaia, Curran Runz, Lady Moon and the Eclipse, and The New Runes Visit our website at forthewild.world for the full episode description, references, and action points.

Welcome to episode 19 of The Way Out Is In: The Zen Art of Living, a podcast series mirroring Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh's deep teachings of Buddhist philosophy: a simple yet profound methodology for dealing with our suffering, and for creating more happiness and joy in our lives. Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh passed away on January 22nd, 2022. As we grieve our dear teacher, we also want to celebrate his enduring legacy with the podcast's first special edition.Therefore, we are sharing an edited recording of Thich Nhat Hanh interviewed by Krista Tippett during a USA tour in 2003, at a lakeside Christian conference center in rural Wisconsin. The interview is reproduced with kind permission of Krista Tippett and her podcast and radio show On Being.Peabody Award-winning broadcaster Krista Tippett is a National Humanities Medalist and a New York Times bestselling author. She attended Brown University, then worked as a journalist and diplomat in Cold War Berlin. Subsequently, she lived in Spain and England before receiving a Master of Divinity at Yale University in the mid 1990s. The episode starts with an introduction by Brother Phap Huu – Thich Nhat Hanh's former attendant, and the current Abbott of Upper Hamlet, Plum Village. The brother recites one of Thay's best known poems and pays tribute to his beloved teacher.In the interview, Thich Nhat Hanh offers gentle wisdom for living in a world of anger and violence, through concepts such as engaged Buddhism, ‘being peace', and mindfulness. He shares the story behind his classic book The Miracle of Mindfulness, and discusses the Vietnamese connotations of the word ‘mindfulness'; transforming suffering; and building a community of practice and teaching mindfulness to different groups – from members of the US Congress to Hollywood filmmakers and law enforcement officers.One segment of the interview focuses on dealing with war and ‘enemies'; the repetitive patterns of war, with a focus on the Vietnam and Iraq wars and the ‘war on terror' taking place at the time. He further delves into: the root causes of war, anger, forgiveness, and peacekeeping; collective awakening; and viewing the world through the eyes of compassion. What is compassion in the wake of a terrorist attack? Does the practice of mindfulness cause forgiveness to become instinctual? And what were Thay's pressing questions in 2003? Thay also recites poems in both English and Vietnamese and comments on their meanings and shifting contexts, such as the relevance of his 40-year-old poem ‘Illusion Transformed' to the realities of 2003.

When you are mindful, you are fully alive, you are fully present, you can get in touch with the wonders of life, which can nourish and heal you. And you are stronger, you are more solid, more able to handle the suffering inside and around you. When you are mindful, you can recognize, embrace, and handle the pain, the sorrow in and around you, to bring relief. And if you continue with concentration and insight, you’ll be able to transform the suffering inside and help transform the suffering around you.” “Suffering and happiness are both organic, like flowers and garbage. The flower is on her way to become a piece of garbage, and the garbage can be on its way to become a flower. That is why you are not afraid of the garbage, and you know how to handle it so that flowers can be created. And that is all. There's no attempt to run away from suffering. And you handle suffering in such a way in order to create wellbeing and happiness.” “Awakening, understanding, compassion, and reconciliation can take place after a few days of practice. People need an opportunity so that the seed of compassion, understanding in them can be watered. And that is why we are not discouraged. If more people join in the work of offering that opportunity, there will be a collective awakening and we shall have enough collective understanding and compassion to help us out of this difficult situation.” “When you have compassion in your heart, you suffer much less. And you are in the situation to be and to do something to help others to suffer less.” “Understanding brings compassion; understanding is compassion itself. When you understand the difficulties, the suffering, the despair of another, you don’t hate him or her anymore. And you are motivated by the desire to do something in order to help them transform the suffering inside.” “You have to remain human in order to be able to understand and to be compassionate. And you have the right to be angry, but you don’t have the right not to practice in order to transform your anger. You have the right to make mistakes, but you don’t have the right to continue making a mistake: you have to learn from your mistakes.” “Zen is not merely a system of thought. Zen infuses our whole being with the most pressing question we have.” “I hold my face in my two hands.No, I am not crying.I hold my face in my two handsto keep the loneliness warm—two hands protecting,two hands nourishing,two hands preventingmy soul from leaving mein anger.” – ‘For Warmth' by Thich Nhat Hanh
