Suffering and Joy
from Undefended Dharma with Mary Stancavage · host Mary Stancavage
Suffering and Joy seem incompatible, but in this talk Mary shows how they are not mutually exclusive. Joy is not dependent on outside circumstances. As teacher Larry Ward has said, "Joy is possible in the midst of suffering and without ignoring the suffering." Using the wisdom of several authors, Mary talks about how we can access joy without waiting for everything to be okay. With our practice we create the conditions for joy to arise at any time.Recorded Nov. 23, 2024 in the virtual worldBooks mentioned in this talk:Joy is My Justice by Taneet Sethi, MDJoyfully Just by Kamilia Majie, PhDAwakening Joy by James Baraz and Shoshanna AlexanderThe Book of Joy by Desmond Tutu and the Dalai LamaSend me a text with any questions or comments!
