S1E3 Terms and Conditions, Part 2/Karma, Reincarnation, Time and All That Jazz: An Interview with Kiki McGrath.

In this episode we sit down with international interfaith artist Kiki McGrath (www.kikimcgrath.com)  to continue our series on defining what Buddhism is for both Buddhists and non-Buddhists alike.  We clarify and define terms specific to Buddhist practice so that we can have a more full conversation about the challenges facing Vajrayana Buddhism in America.   As a practitioner of Catholicism, Kiki's questions emphasize an honest curiosity in faiths outside her own and, at the same time, provide an opportunity for explanation and clarification of Buddhist terminology that is often culturally misunderstood or mistranslated.  The answers, given from the Dzogchen perspective, apply to all Vajrayana practice and create a common framework from which to build future discussions.
