Get Into Wise Trouble

from Tea with Mara Hosted by George Beecher

“Get Into Wise Trouble” is a Dharma talk and guided meditation on courageous, compassionate action. Inspired by a moment in Babel by R.F. Kuang, and grounded in the words of the late Congressman John Lewis—this talk explores the Buddhist path of standing up, speaking out, and disturbing harm with love. We talk about what wise trouble really looks like, how the Buddha and Thich Nhat Hanh modeled it, and how we can act from clarity instead of fear—even when the stakes feel high. This one’s for anyone who’s ever wondered if Buddhists are supposed to stay silent in the face of injustice. (Spoiler: we’re not.) I’d love to hear your thoughts on what wise trouble means to you. https://bio.reverendgeorgebeecher.com
