Keep Calm And Carry On Skillfully
In this episode, I explore the Zen koan "There is nothing I dislike" and its connection to skillful action, especially during times of uncertainty like the Coronavirus pandemic. I discuss how investigating the "I" behind our likes and dislikes, understanding impermanence and interdependence, and recognizing that our perspective is unique can lead to greater freedom and compassion. The episode also delves into the concept of "keeping calm and carrying on skillfully," emphasizing that while we are the source of many of our difficulties, we are also the solution, and that even challenging circumstances can be viewed as opportunities for practice and self-understanding.
