282 – Cutting Moral Corners: Is Buddhism Compatible with 21st-Century Life? (2 of 2)

The Zen Studies Podcast

This is part two of my discussion "Cutting Moral Corners: Is Buddhism Compatible with 21st-Century Life?" In Part 1 I talked about the moral stress that arises from living a modern life, where almost every decision we make becomes a moral choice. I discussed how home leaving – or monasticism – was early Buddhism's prescription for avoiding moral stress, and then how the Mahayana bodhisattva ideal become a model for lay practice. In this episode I address the matter of moral stress and how we might practice in the midst of it in order to free ourselves from dukkha, or suffering.
