“The whole project of The New Saints was to delve into the frustrations of paradox, of contradictions. One of the things that deepens our suffering is our attempt to make everything make sense. That’s how we get trapped in delusion, trying to make it make sense when instead we are trying to transcend it.” – Lama Rod Owens

“It’s not about your ego when you’re making music. It’s not about you. It’s about the music.
If you’re trying to perform, you want to just have the best performance possible. If you’re writing music, you just want to take the song where the song wants to go. You want to help it go. It’s not about your self-referential agenda; it’s about the music.
It’s not about you, and so you’re transcending yourself.” – Richard Wolf

It is the new year, now is the time to sit down, settle in and dig into mindfulness and meditation practice. The question is, what are you doing that gets in the way of your practice taking root? In this episode, David offers wisdom that every beginning or struggling meditator needs to hear.
Transform your meditation practice with Dharma Moon's 1-on-1 mentoring program: 1:1 MENTORING
"There is another expression of practice, 'Hasten slowly and you will soon arrive.' There is a built-in tension between our momentum to try not to be where we are... and this instinct that is coming in just to settle in and be who we are; where we are; when we are. We are going to let that play out a little bit... We are not necessarily going to outsmart it - manipulate it and bend it to our will - and then on the other hand we are not going to be able to avoid it. Then you are in the sweet spot, and I think that is a kind of texture of practice that is very powerful." - David Nichtern

"I was in a marriage for some time, but it led to me not being honest with myself because I wasn't really honoring the doubt and the fear. Fear and doubt are related. In that relationship, I was so afraid of it ending—even though it was unhealthy and the relationship wasn't even really a relationship at that point—but I couldn't acknowledge reality. I was afraid to, and that kept me stuck in the trap [of doubt], and it led to a lot of suffering." – Michael Kammers

In this timely David's View episode, Michael Kammers joins David for a discussion which dives into the importance of mindful leadership. Taking an honest look at our current leadership models in the United States, the Dharma Moon Duo offers insight into dancing and conflict resolution, ego and intention, capacity and dysfunction, as well as discernment, communication, and freedom.
"A leader has to take a big aerial view of the whole situation and somehow become a transformer. A leader has to know how to transform energy—to not reject energy, to see people's gifts, to see their obstacles, and continuously re-orchestrate the situation so that people have a chance to grow." – David Nichtern
