By combining breakthroughs in science with insights from thousands of years of mindfulness practice, you too can shape your own “Buddha’s Brain” for greater happiness, love, and wisdom.

The Heart Sutra, originally a very short set of verses, was given in privacy as a message to one of Buddha's close disciples, Sariputra, specifically addressed to him. Over time the Heart Sutra became one of Buddhism's core teachings. In these 10 talks, Osho presents the powerful message of these ancient words and brings them to a modern audience - one with different minds and needs than the original audiences of Buddha more than 2,500 years ago.

It is common in both Buddhism and Freudian psychoanalysis to treat desire as if it is the root of all suffering and problems, but psychiatrist Mark Epstein believes this to be a grave misunderstanding. In his controversial defense of desire, he makes clear that it is the key to deepening intimacy with ourselves, each other, and our world. Proposing that spiritual attainment does not have to be detached from intimacy or eroticism, Open to Desire begins with an exploration of the state of dissatisfaction that causes us to cling to irrational habits.

Written more than 25 centuries ago, the Diamond Sutra is the first text to record the Buddha's own teachings, and it remains one of the most popular.

One day, after the Buddha finishes his daily walk to collect alms, a senior monk steps forth to ask how he can best help humanity. Buddha responds, and thus begins a dialogue regarding the nature of perception.

This podcast wasn’t created to inspire. It was created to be real. I’m Chase Murphy. I didn’t start this to teach or coach—it rose out of survival. When the noise of the world threatened to get too loud, I picked up a mic and told the truth I couldn’t say anywhere else. Death, life, love, hate, loss, confusion, fatigue, hope and every blessed thing that we live. Real talk. Real truth. This is not therapy. It’s not self-help. And it’s not for children. The language is mature. The emotions are raw. The stories are honest. So if you’re looking for filters, polish, or a lesson plan...

In a world that is changing at an unprecedented pace, we are facing new challenges and demands. Traditional self-management, which is often based on control, per-formance and external success, no longer seems to be sufficient in this complex reality. We are experiencing increasing alienation from ourselves as we try to live up to the expectations of a fast-moving society. Many people feel plagued by inner rest-lessness, stress and a feeling of emptiness, despite apparent external success. It is obvious that we need a new way of self-management based on profound self-knowledge, inner peace and.

The way to inner peace is illuminated in this accessible guide to tending one's inner landscape. The lives of outstanding figures such as the Buddha, Walt Whitman, and Gandhi are used to connect the ideal of inner peace with how real people cultivate peace in their everyday lives. Peacefulness as dynamic, selective, and egoless is shown through the constructive act of choosing different ways of life, such as having a smaller family or a more modest career. A message of hope and inspiration permeates this pragmatic approach and is exemplified by the author's own practice of meditation.
