“You become an imaginary cell in these times. Things fall apart, but compassion is big enough to hold all this, the mind is big enough to hold all this, and the understanding that Dharma is big enough to shine through empire, change, crisis, beauty. That’s what we have. – Jack Cornfield
In this episode, Jack and Trudy sincerely explore: you can choose all flowers, but you cannot stop the spring of navigating the cultural media machine that ends the systemic department as an opportunity to live on how to create a world of more loving, create an Ajang Chau, and welcome the world to the world to make the truth true to the world of great love, to make the world of truth, to make the world of uncertainty, and people connect with enlightenment, to lean paths and practices of loving consciousness and compassion towards kindness and generosity. Dawn Community Goddess as an antidote to loneliness see how to interact with people of extremely uneasy and avoidance who cry, shed tears, and greet those around you
“Tears feel infinite and become bottomless. When there is no chance to fall. When they fall, they fall and fall, but the tears stop because they can’t fall forever. – Trudy Goodman
“What we’re experiencing is Joanna Macy calling and a great turn. It’s a breakdown of the exploitative late stage capitalist model we get as much as we can and a harbinger of the possibility of interdependence. – Jack Cornfield
