A Note from Laura Chandler

I want to take a moment to thank all of our generous supporters and volunteers who help make the Sacred Stream Radio Podcast possible. I began this podcast as a labor of love and to share the stories of the remarkable, talented, famous and not-so-famous people I have the great privilege of meeting and engaging with as a result of my work in the world. These are people I am moved by and who inspire me and I hope that they move and inspire you, too.

On this episode, we are sharing an excerpt from a recent talk at the Sacred Stream by esteemed author, former Tibetan Buddhist monk, and renowned Buddhist teacher, Thupten Jinpa, Ph.D. Jinpa has been the principal English translator for the Dalai Lama since 1985 and has translated and edited more than ten of his books, along with writing several of his own. He serves as the Board Chair of the Mind & Life Institute, is the founder and president of the Compassion Institute, and is a visiting research scholar at the Stanford Institute for Neuro-Innovation and Translational Neurosciences. In this insightful talk, Jinpa explores the importance of befriending our minds—an essential practice for navigating challenges and fostering a more joyful, fulfilling life. He has written and lectured extensively on Lojong, the Tibetan practice of Mind Training, and offers wisdom that is both practical and deeply transformative.
