I've known Emily Hsu since she first started teaching Buddhist philosophy and meditation at the Tse Chen Ling Center for Tibetan Buddhism 15 years ago in San Francisco. She's a lucid, humble, and kind teacher who speaks from both deep education and rich personal experience.Emily Hsu completed the seven year FPMT Masters Program at Institute Lama Tzong Khapa in Italy in 2004—a condensed version of the Tibetan Buddhist Geisha studies curriculum—which qualifies her to teach subjects normally taught only by Tibetan Buddhist Lamas. She served as the resident teacher at California's Ocean of Compassion Buddhist Center and has spent long stretches of time in solitary retreat deepening her practice.Emily and I got together in person recently to talk about the Buddhist view of the mind, what the mind is, navigating disturbing emotions, and how to understand reality.Episode 126: The Buddhist Understanding of the Mind with Emily HsuUnlock Your Innate HappinessLearn a 9-step process of analytical meditation in Skeptic's Path's first online course that starts March 5, 2023SIGN UP NOWSupport the show
