Conversations on Buddha-Nature
Regular live interviews with Buddhist practitioners, scholars, and thinkers.
This is a space for stimulating and inspiring conversations on Buddha-Nature and related subjects. As a part of the Buddha-Nature Project of the Tsadra Foundation, Karma Phuntsho will host conversations with a Buddhist leader, influencer or expert each month on the theories and practices of Buddha-Nature, which will be live on Facebook. The conversations aim to enhance the understanding and awareness of Buddha-Nature and promote the ethos of innate goodness and positive perception. Styled on Krista Tippet’s On Being program on NPR, it will be an exercise of mindful listening, right speech, and wholesome exploration of meaning and nature of life and existence.

Happiness as Human Flourishing
In his writing and in his life, he explores happiness not as pleasurable feeling but as a way of being that gives you the resources to deal with the ups and downs of life and that encompasses many emotional states, including sadness. We take in Matthieu Ricard’s practical teachings for cultivating inner strength, joy, and direction.
