Lama Tsultrim is joined by her long-time friend and the founding teacher of the Insight Meditation Society, Jack Korfield. Together, they explore the difference between mindfulness and awareness, what it means to go beyond Samsara and Nirvana, the meaning of enlightenment and more. Jack describes how meditation can free us from our patterns, increasing our ability to love and, in turn, enabling us to become loving awareness itself. He also talks about the transition from monastic life into intimate partnership and the important role that therapy has played in his own life. About Jack Kornfield: Jack Kornfield trained as a Buddhist monk in Thailand, India, and Burma. He holds a Ph.D. in clinical psychology and is a founding teacher of the Insight Meditation Society in Massachusetts and Spirit Rock Meditation Center in California.
