Buddhism Beyond Belief with Susan PiverMeditation, Rage, and Other Strong EmotionsWhy do we turn to meditation when things fall apart—and what are we really supposed to do with all these overwhelming emotions?

All three ways are accurate, though usually only the first is described in Buddhist writings.In this episode, you’ll hear about how to work skillfully with emotional intensity, not necessarily by escap...2025-05-0912 minBuddhism Beyond Belief with Susan PiverWhy You’re Not Meditating Consistently (and What to Do About It)In this episode, Susan reflects on one of the most common meditation struggles: staying consistent.

It’s not about being nice, it’s about being awake. True compassion is wise, fierce, and rooted in awareness.“Idiot compassion” is a term coined by Chögyam Trungpa to describe misguided kindness that stems from the three poisons:Grasping – trying to feel good or be liked.Aggression – trying to control or make something (or someone) disappear.Delusion – trying to avoid seeing what is really going on.True compas...2025-04-2520 minBuddhism Beyond Belief with Susan PiverWho Can You Trust in the Spiritual World?Trusting a spiritual teacher is one of the most important—and complex—decisions on the path.

We in the West can still expect such outcomes without relying in any way on cultural appropriation or religious beliefs.
