Frank Ostaseski & Vinny Ferraro: BELONGING: The Power of Community

Upaya Zen Center's Dharma Podcast - A podcast by Joan Halifax | Zen Buddhist Teacher Upaya Abbot - Sundays

Months of isolation exacerbate a pre-existing crisis of loneliness that poses a threat to public health for many. Isolation and loneliness can give rise to a deep yearning for community. Something within each of us cries out for belonging. The Buddha taught that good spiritual friends are the whole of the holy life. He encouraged us to take refuge in the Sangha, in the community of practice, in each other. Frank Ostaseski and Vinny Ferraro, two beloved Buddhist teachers, explored the power of community and the related responsibility that follows an appreciation of our interdependence, including supporting equity among people, symbiosis with other species, and the sustainability of the planet.
