The Topsy Turvy Logic Of Tonglen And Why It's The Better Way Of Being
from Mindsprings Podcast with Alistair Appleton · host Alistair Appleton
This is an extract from some teaching Alistair gave as part of a study day on Compassion - he is outlining the benefit of the Buddhist practice of 'tonglen' which involves giving away the good and drawing in the bad - the opposite of our usual egoic way-of-being. It's a counter intuitive practice but from the Buddhist point of view, ultimately effective.
