Robert Thurman & Scott Snibbe at Tibet House: How to Train a Happy Mind #161

In New York City, a couple months ago, I had the honor of sharing a public conversation with one of my Buddhist heroes, the renowned author and scholar Robert Thurman. In this episode's conversation, we share an edited recording from that evening, talking about everything from overcoming self-hatred, enjoying pleasure without attachment, getting ghosted by the Dalai Lama, and how one might come to have compassion for someone as dangerous and deadly as Vladimir Putin.Episode 161:  Robert Thurman & Scott Snibbe at Tibet House: How to Train a Happy MindWe’ve just launched a new online community where Scott Snibbe leads weekly live meditations for the topics  shared in our podcast and How to Train a Happy Mind  book.
