Best of the Archives: Improving Your Relationships - Buddhist Style | Martine Batchelor

This great deep-Dharma episode is all about using an ancient, fascinating, and readily-accessible Buddhist concept as a way to improve your interactions with other human beings. 

The concept in question is called vedana, or “feeling tone.” 

Our guest Martine Batchelor will explain. She was a Buddhist nun in Korea for ten years and is now a lecturer, spiritual counselor, and author of such books as “The Path of Compassion” and “Women in Korean Zen”. 

Just a note, this episode is a re-run, which we’re doing a few times this summer in order to give the staff a breather, and also to resurface some of our older gems for our newer listeners.
