Buddhist Podcast Of the Day (BPOD) http://diydharma.org/DIY-audio en Bloody Noses by Michael McAlister http://diydharma.org/bloody-noses-michael-mcalister <p>In this talk, Michael discusses how we can see that those who metaphorically give us bloody noses, can be our greatest teachers, offering us great Dharma doors through which we can walk. He talks about his stint as a stand-up comic, and then uses an excerpt from his upcoming book, in order to help articulate how it is that we can learn to allow for space to inform all in us that is closed. Questions from the audience deal with observing our addictions as a way of diminishing them; and not caring what people think. </p> http://diydharma.org/bloody-noses-michael-mcalister#comments Dhamma talk 41:07 Michael McAlister Mon, 25 Feb 2008 20:01:52 +0000 sangha 2319 at http://diydharma.org
