    Description

    Inspired by a Tamar Adler quote in this Vox article, I explore the ways that greed and capitalism lead us to abandon our felt experiences and 4 Buddhist tools we can use as antidotes to greed. I also share quotes from Sharon Salzberg and Ruth King.

    A weekly podcast exploring early Buddhist teachings and how they apply to 21st century life. Kate Spina is trained to share Buddhist teachings in the Theravada lineage. IG: @towardlight108www.towardlight.netinfo@towardlight.netToward Light is committed to continuing the tradition of the Buddha by making Early Buddhist teachings accessible to all who are interested in them. We offer multiple tools to help people cultivate and maintain a meditation practice and a spiritually-oriented life. Toward Light was founded to fill a gap in Early Buddhist meditation offerings, which have often been passed down through patriarchal lineage, and do not always take feminist and 21st century perspectives into account.
