I'm finally back after a bit of an unintentional hiatus, which we review in the podcast. The highlight of which is that I was recording podcasts for the Shambhala Meditation Center of San Antonio.
Today's podcast was inspired by something that Shawno from the HyperNonsense podcast when he said, "I denounce your reality and replace it with my own."
We take a look at your reality, my reality, and everyone elses reality. And yes, we spend some time denouncing them. It really quite fun!
Happy New Year! Welcome to the 33rd episode of the Enlighten Up Podcast and our first podcast of 2008. On today's episode, we talk about how you become a Buddhist. Again, we do a little compare and contrast with other religions then we talk about the Refuge Vow ceremony, what happens and what it means.
In the new voice mail segment (actually I think we have had a voice mail segment for awhile, just no voicemails) we hear from our very first voicemail caller, Brad P. from NJ from the Whole Lot Of Nonsense podcast, who gives me some much appreciated positive feed back and then gives me something to think about: "There is truth in all spiritual paths but no single spiritual truth." This seems to make a lot of sense.
We're back! After a full schedule of National Podcast Post Month I took a couple of weeks off to relax a little but it is definitely time for another podcast!
This time talk about Finding Happiness, and how this relates to ego. Do we find happiness, create it, or is there some third option?
