392: The Hero's Journey to the Food Bank (The Dharma Toolkit Daily, Episode 17)

Two great friends from Australia and New Zealand evoke a mythic vision of beautiful community, founded on, knit together by stories. Stories from school, from war, from the Shambhala Buddhist tradition, from long, steady personal and communal Dharma practice. We look at how technology can make people - kids! - more courageous. And the everyday challenges when trying to develop kindness in the face of fear. A re-definition of the heroic in the light of empathy, connection and the possibility of hopeful exemplification when imagining the future of our species.***Check out our Dharma Toolkit space for details of all we have on offer to help you make it through the weirdness and stay inspired.Come meditate with us any week day!***Theme music by Ackport!
