Donald Rothberg: The Shared Heart of Spiritual Teachings and Practices

Donald Rothberg's most recent Dharma talks (Dharma Seed)

(Spirit Rock Meditation Center) The Dalai Lama has said, “My religion is kindness," suggesting that the core of spirituality is both beyond any particular religion and does not require religion. We explore, in a similar way, how the basics of Buddhist teachings and practices-- related to ethics, kindness and compassion, wisdom, and touching nibbana--can be understood and expressed in ordinary, everyday language and at its heart is both shared by other spiritual traditions and potentially beyond any particular tradition. The talk is followed by discussion.
