This week on Pilgrim Heart, join Krishna Das for chanting
and chatting about:


Buddhism and moving through life without the motivation to
harm

Unwinding the heart and opening the mind

Continuing to chant as feelings come and go

Following advice from the guru

Contemplation of the body

The Hanumat Stavan and other prayers

Loving someone regardless of what we want them to be doing

Extending our inner love and acceptance out to others

Physical pleasure, impermanence, and spiritual lessons

The inevitability of Karma

Looking within when we are upset with others



“There’s no end to the lust for pleasure until you
recognize what they call impermanence; the changing nature of
everything. When you do recognize that, pleasure actually can be
more intense because you are not expecting it to last forever.
You are not approaching it with grasping and clinging and
neediness. You approach it with joy.” – Krishna Das
