I offer some examples of the ways in which artworks and approaches to artmaking and appreciation can be considered as modes of conversation and as vehicles for sharing religious insights and experiences. I also introduce Edmund Burke’s ideas about the ‘sublime’ and suggest how feelings of awe and wonder can be shared experiences within arts and religious contex...2025-07-0935 minMonster Kid PlaygroundMonster Kid PlaygroundMonster Kid Playground - Ghosts, Gunpowder & Goofballs with Jonathan CrouchJohn sits down with longtime friend and fellow monster kid Jonathan Crouch for a hilarious and heartfelt stroll down memory lane.

They both offer us interesting thoughts about human nature, what we mean by ‘the self’ and how to enshrine multiple personal freedoms and rights within a vibrant society. Both writers argue for tolerance and benign scepticism. I also suggest some connections between their ideas and those of Gotama Buddha.2025-05-0132 minDharma RoadsDharma RoadsEpisode 35 - Learning, awakening & empowermentSend us a textIn this episode I explore some of the issues surrounding educational methods and processes in contemporary Buddhism and suggest changes in perspective and practice that can lead to a more empowering experience for students (and teachers).

Like Gary Snyder, who I will speak about in a future episode, Rexroth explores the natural world – both literally, as a hiker through the American landscape, and in his poetry and other writings. Rexroth belongs to the generation immediately prior to Snyder though they did know each other well in the 1950s. I will touch on various strands of his work and point out a few parallels with Buddhist ideas and practices.

I argue that letting-go and unlearning, and the making of connections, are important aspects of both mindful meditation and creativity. Taking up Jane Hirshfield’s thoughts about the role of concentration in the composing of poetry...2024-12-1338 minDharma RoadsDharma RoadsEpisode 32 - Mindful Solidarity - an interview with Mike SlottSend us a textIn this special episode I interview, Mike Slott, about his new book titled, Mindful Solidarity: A Secular Buddhist Democratic Socialist Dialogue. Mike is the founder of the Secular Buddhist Network – an organisation that has done a lot of work advocating for a secular approach to Buddhist ideas and practices, and in helping to link together secular Buddhist individuals and groups from around the world.

I also describe the way in which Daoism is complemented by Confucian ideas in the history of Chinese culture. It seems to me that there are many things we can learn from the ways in which Daoists think about change, uncertainty, the natural world and finding harmony within apparently opposing viewpoints and forces. Forgive my pronunciation of Chinese...2024-11-1235 minDharma RoadsDharma RoadsEpisode 30 - John DeweySend us a textIn this extended episode I share some thoughts on a strand of philosophy known as ‘pragmatism’ as realized in the work of one of its key exponents, John Dewey – who was born in 1859 and died in 1952 at the ripe old age of ninety-three. Here and there I will point out parallels between Dewey’s ideas and the ideas and practices of other Buddhist and non-Buddhist thinkers I have mentioned in earlier talks. Over Dewey’s long life he had a profound influence on American philosophy and on the development of psychology, politics and education...2024-10-1434 minDharma RoadsDharma RoadsEpisode 29 - Climate action & eco-griefSend us a textIn this episode I share some more thoughts on global warming, climate action and eco-grief. This is a revised and extended version of Episode 3. I argue that we need to face up to the global challenge we face, however difficult this may be, and to do what we can, individually and collectively, to address issues raised by climate change and its causes. I also suggest some actions we can take to combat, or at least lessen, the increase in global warming and to transform potential despair into a more hopeful outlook. 2024-09-1923 minDharma RoadsDharma RoadsEpisode 28 - Soren KierkegaardSend us a textIn Episode 21 I talked about existentialism and mentioned that while Jean Paul Sartre, Simone de Beauvoir and other existentialist thinkers were agnostics or atheists, there were a number of influential Christian philosophers who developed forms of existential thinking. The earliest of these was the Danish theologian, Soren Kierkegaard (1813-1855), who lived in Copenhagen for most of his life. In this episode I share a few thoughts about Kierkegaard's ideas and life. Please keep in mind that what follows is my personal view of just a few strands of Kierkegaard’s many-stranded thought.

I hope to show how this bundle of ideas and practices can have a practical application in helping us, and all beings, to liv2024-07-2030 minDharma RoadsDharma RoadsEpisode 26 - Cultivating mindful ethicsSend us a textIn this episode, I return to the question discussed in Episode 22, that is, what kind of ethical values may be necessary to the development of a just and peaceful society – describing in more detail what I have called ‘mindful ethics.’ In a sense what I say here is repeating what I had to say in Episode 7, though with some significant changes. In particular, I provide a slightly different way of articulating, and thinking about, the ‘Eightfold Path’ – one of the key features of most accounts of the Buddha’s teaching.

I suggest that in the work of both of these figures we find echoes of the ideas and values of earlier sceptics – particularly Pyrrho of Elis and Sextus Empiricus.

I relate this development to the twin functions of teaching and learning - that is, transmission and transformation – as first suggested by the Brazilian philosopher of education, Paolo Freire. I suggest that it is possible to develop a secular twenty-first century approach to Zen that is not bound by t...2024-04-2423 minCatholic School MattersCatholic School MattersInnovation Spotlight: St. John's Prep in Danvers, MADr. Ed Hardiman, the Head of School at St. John's Prep, and Dr. Keith Crowley, the Principal/Associate Head of School at St. John's Prep, join Dr. Tim Uhl on the Catholic School Matters podcast to discuss their efforts to make St. John's Prep an inclusive school and make every student feel loved and included, tying these efforts to their mission.

Zazen is a very simple practice but not always easy. It consists of sitting quietly, paying attention to whatever arises in my embodied mind and in the world immediately around me – without comment or judgment - expanding awareness outwards from my breath to encompass all that happens while I’m sitting - simply being awake and open to the everchanging stream of phenomena that cons...2024-03-2523 minDharma RoadsDharma RoadsEpisode 22 - Mindful ethics, capitalism & sustainabilitySend us a textIn this episode I suggest that the current neo-liberal forms of capitalism are unsustainable insofar as they are damaging to our planet and its life-supporting atmosphere, and as they generate, in the human realm, divisive and deeply inequitable social structures. I argue that we need to develop more beneficial modes of living, working and doing business, grounded in what I think of as mindful ethics – an ethics of compassion, clear-sightedness and sustainability.2024-03-1222 minFilm Fanatic CommentariesFilm Fanatic CommentariesTrue Detective (2024) *FIRST TIME WATCHING* S4.E6 - TV Fanatic Commentary - Season 5An Audio-Only Commentary on the 2024 TV Series True Detective by John Doe.In Ennis, Alaska, the men that operate a research station vanish.

We live in a universe of interwoven and interactive processes and energies – a universe in which things are actually events, with no fixed essences or identities.

In the act of making poems, poets practice a kind of mindful attention – taking notice of what is happening in, and around, themselves in a clear-sighted yet caring and compassionate way.

I relate these thoughts to the practice of mindful meditation and suggest ways of being a mindful sceptic.2023-08-1123 minDharma RoadsDharma RoadsEpisode 16 - John Cage & Zen: a chattering silenceSend us a textIn this extended episode I explore some of the ideas and works of the American multi-disciplinary artist, John Cage – who was born in 1912 and died in 1992 – particularly noting parallels with the practice of zazen and mindful meditation. In 1950, Cage met D.T. Suzuki and began to learn from him about Zen. Cage was never a Zen practitioner, in the usual sense, but his understanding of Zen ideas, along with his study of Daoism and Vedanta philosophy, had an enormous impact on his work as composer, writer and artist. It was in 1950 that Cage bega...2023-07-2135 minDefenders on TV Podcast IndustriesDefenders on TV Podcast IndustriesSecret Invasion Episode 2 PromisesOur podcast all about Secret Invasion Episode 2 Promises is available now.

But we can extend what is called ‘dharma’ - the body of Buddhist wisdom and advice - to include many other non-Buddhist sources. In Western philosophy, other religions and indigenous cultures there are many teachers from whom we can learn. In this episode I take a look at one such teacher - the Dutch philosopher, Baruch Spinoza, (also known as Benedict de Spinoza) who lived fr...2023-06-2214 minDharma RoadsDharma RoadsEpisode 14 - Race, class & identitySend us a textAs always with these talks, I am offering my thoughts in order to prompt reflection and discussion. The theme of this episode, race, class and identity, is a huge and complex topic and I can only on touch on a few aspects. I highlight what I see as a Buddhist perspective on these matters. In some ways, this talk follows on from Episode 12 on ‘Truth, delusion and usefulness’ – particularly the point that was made about the Buddha questioning any claim to truth that was grounded in greed, anger or delusion.’ 2023-06-2018 minDharma RoadsDharma RoadsEpisode Thirteen - Learning from zazen: 'chattering mind' & Zen practiceSend us a textIn this episode I offer a few reflections on some of the things I have learnt from Zen practice and how it has come to be so central to my life. I suggest that zazen, Zen meditation, is an art that enables the practitioner to gain insights into the chattering and acquisitive self and to discover another way of being that draws on the boundless creative energy of the mind – Beginner’s Mind or Zen Mind. Anyone can learn this art and encounter the peace and unity that it can bring.2023-05-1018 minDharma RoadsDharma RoadsEpisode Twelve - Truth, delusion & usefulnessSend us a textIn this episode I discuss some of the meanings of the term, ‘truth,’ and explore the ways in which different concepts of truth affect how we see the world and how we relate to each other. I go on to suggest that it may be more beneficial to human wellbeing to think in terms of what is ‘useful’ rather than what is ‘true.’ This talk may seem more abstract and theoretical than many of the others, but I hope that it will clarify some of the thinking around notions of truth and be helpful in e...2023-05-1018 minDharma RoadsDharma RoadsEpisode Eleven - Anger & suspending judgmentSend us a textIn this episode I talk about anger – how we think about it, manage and make use of it, and how we can learn to let go of it. I then discuss how feelings of anger are often associated with making judgments – how the judgments we make can too easily give rise to feelings of injustice, resentment and anger. I then consider some of the reasons why suspending judgment is considered to be important by many Buddhist teachers and by many philosophers in the Western sceptical tradition.2023-05-0520 minDharma RoadsDharma RoadsEpisode Ten - Happiness, hope & equanimitySend us a textIn this episode I talk about cultivating equanimity and composure, even as we experience joy and happiness. I suggest that changing our relationship with experiences, to take account of the transient nature of everything we think and feel, is a crucial aspect of developing wisdom and peace of mind. This leads to some thoughts on hope and despair, optimism and pessimism. I hope you will find it to be of interest.2023-05-0519 minDharma RoadsDharma RoadsEpisode Nine - Mindful meditation & Bare attentionSend us a textThis talk is about mindful meditation, what it is and how it is described in the literature of Buddhism - with a particular focus on The Four Foundations of Mindfulness as described in the Satipatthana Sutra. I also discuss the practice of ‘bare attention’ – an approach to mindful meditation associated particularly with Zen Buddhism.2022-11-2329 minDharma RoadsDharma RoadsEpisode Eight - The Buddha's social teachingsSend us a textIn this talk I describe how the development, in an individual, of the skills outlined in the Buddha's 'Eightfold Path,' can become the ethical values for a whole society – a ‘culture of awakening?’ I also explore some of the connections between Buddhist ideas and practices and what we might call an ecological worldview.2022-10-0528 minDharma RoadsDharma RoadsEpisode Seven - Mindful ethics & the Eightfold PathSend us a textIn this episode I discuss the Eightfold Path – a well-known and important outline of how the Four Noble Truths or Tasks are to be developed and realised. These are set out in the Dhammacakkappavattana sutra, usually referred to in English as Setting in Motion the Wheel of the Dharma – an account of one of the Buddha’s first teachings. I go on to briefly explore the concepts of dukkha (suffering) and sukha (wellbeing). I also share some thoughts on how it may be useful to think of the Eightfold Path as a way of est...2022-09-1830 minOGGR Old Guys Geekly ReviewOGGR Old Guys Geekly ReviewEP 003 OGGR Old Guys Geekly Review July 2022 part 3 21st-31stPodcast Show July 21-29Welcome Gamers and Geeks!Introduce OGGRIntroduce HostsJune 1, 2021, and May 31, 2022Best live ShowLokiHawkeyeExpanse s6Witcher s2Stranger thingsBest Animated showWhat if?Star wars VisionsArcaneHit MonkeyLegend of vox machinaBest AnimeMy Dress up DarlingSpy x FamilyMiss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid S...2022-07-2157 minDharma RoadsDharma RoadsEpisode Six - the Pali Canon, dukkha and non-violenceSend us a textIn this talk, I briefly discuss the Pali Canon, the early texts of Buddhism, and also say a little more about how suffering arises from our struggle to deal with the impermanent and interdependent nature of existence. I also introduce and describe three important Buddhist terms: metta – ‘loving kindness,’ karuna – ‘compassion’ and ahimsa – ‘non-violence.’2022-07-2019 minDharma RoadsDharma RoadsEpisode Five - The Four Noble TruthsSend us a textIn this episode I talk about the Four Noble Truths – one of the central teachings of the Buddha.

These three marks, or conditions, of existence are considered as central tenets of the Buddha’s teaching within most Buddhist schools. The first mark of existence is impermanence – anicca; the second is anatta – often referred to as non-self; and the third is dukkha – usually translated as suffering.2022-06-2710 minDharma RoadsDharma RoadsEpisode Three A Buddhist perspective on eco-griefSend us a textIn this episode, I suggest that we consider eco-grief as one of many forms of suffering (dukkha in Buddhism) arising from the transient nature of existence and from our insatiable desires or attachments to things and sensations. I'll look at two aspects of eco-grief: on the one hand, a feeling of loss at what is passing, dying or being degraded; and on the other hand, a deepening anxiety about a chaotic and fearful future. I'll argue that, in order to act in a mindful, wise and compassionate manner, we need to combine clear-sighted...2022-05-2512 minDharma RoadsDharma RoadsEpisode Two - Many Roads, Many TruthsSend us a textIn this episode I explain why the Podcast is called Dharma Roads, rather than Dharma Road.

I am not suggesting that there are no truths, but that there are many truths.2022-05-1917 minDharma RoadsDharma RoadsEpisode One - Dharma RoadsSend us a textIn this first episode I explain what the word 'dharma' usually means in Buddhism and why the podcast is titled, 'Dharma Roads.' I suggest that there are many roads to wisdom and peace and that in the twenty-first century we have access to a global storehouse of teachings and traditions. What is important is that we learn from these teachings and traditions in order to transform our daily lives into a dharma road of peace, compassion and understanding.2022-05-1407 minJohn Paul - Car Doctor Radio PodcastJohn Paul - Car Doctor Radio PodcastTalking cars with Kevin and Zack Michaud of Michaud MitsubishiIn this episode we talk about the newest Mitsubishi the all new Outlander with the owner of one of the oldest Mitsubishi dealerships around Danvers's Michaud Mitsubishi | New and Used Mitsubishi Cars2021-11-2955 minDefenders on TV Podcast IndustriesDefenders on TV Podcast IndustriesMarvel's What If Ultron Won?
