Today our guest is buddhist teacher Scott Tusa. Scott shares about his mother's passing igniting his spiritual path, cherry picking from spiritual traditions, not being a self improvement project, relating to suffering as the first step to healing and awakening, universal compassionate love, seeing flaws in our preferences and seeing others in ourselves, the problem and complexity with wanting to fix or be useful, exhaustion of identify, waffling between the absolute and relative, true failure, lacking genuine self-love, his own leeriness of success, using meditation to transform or to increase self-obsession, the suffering of the body, karma, being a monk to being in relationship, 3 kinds of awareness, the failure of individualism, blowing up our perceptions as real ~ https://scotttusa.com/
