DP #10 Stephen Batchelor - Practicing here and now
from Upaya Zen Center's Dharma Podcast
Recorded at Upaya Zen Center, June 2nd, 2006 Time: 1:12:16 Morning Session Stephen began to lay out for us his view of the Secular Buddha where dharma practice is primarily concerned with this world, as the focus for our love, compassion and enquiry. He continues this exploration with an explanation of his view of contingency - dependent origination, everything in this world is a condition that brings about something else. Stephen locates the Buddha's teachings within the spiritual culture of his time, with references from the Upanishads, and with an introduction to the work of Nagarjuna. We are invited to consider these different historical perspectives on the "self" and our relationship with it. We gratefully thank our friend of Upaya, Ottmar Liebert for his contribution of music and bells used in our Podcasts.
