Welcome to another episode of A Buddhist Podcast. Tonight we have the chapter on Being Understood from the amazing toolkit book called The Talking Revolution (a great read!). The book written by Eddy Canfor-Dumas and Peter Osborne is a great book that I suspect will be in use for a long time to come.

We play a song, Supermoon by the New York band, Ikebe Shakedown, from their radio program, Live at WFMU for Surface Noise with Joe McGasko. The music is available online The Tribe of Noise and we thank Ikebe Shakedown for giving us permission to play it under the auspices of the Creative Commons license platform.

Have a great week.

Hi Everyone! Thank you so much for your patience! Tonights show is based around the next section of the book, The Talking Revolution written by Eddy Canfor-Dumas and Peter Osborne. Published on Amazon and getting read by more people everyday! The subject is Openness!

Tonight we play a track called, Love Never Wasted, written and performed by the extraordinarily talented Howard Jones. This track is from the album Ordinary Heroes. Howard is often touring and appears in the most surprising places, so keep an eye out! His new album, Transform is available for preorder from ITunes and elsewhere and will be available from May this year.

Eddy, Peter and I have a conversation about the Openness chapter from a Buddhist perspective, something for everyone! Thank you for downloading the show, have a great week and treasure everyone in your life!

Hello Everyone! Our show tonight continues with The Talking Revolution and the subject is Responsibility. A great way to share Buddhist concepts with friends and family as there is no jargon or language to get in the way! Published on Amazon, this book is making more headway in organisations and companies than you would believe.

The music tonight comes from another SGI-UK member, Howard Jones, who wrote and performed Building our own Future. Even this track is packed full of value. 

Suitably inspired, the authors Eddy Canfor-Dumas and Peter Osborne, talk with me about responsibility from a Buddhist perspective. A lot for everyone to relate to. Thank you so much for taking time to listen. Have the best week of your life.

This is a wonderful SGI centre in the South of France.

Happy New Year everyone! On this show we have Peter Osborn and Eddy Canfor-Dumas , back with the second installment of The Talking Revolution. This is a great show to share with those who don’t practice as its completely free of jargon and really helpful! Its called, We are relationships. The book, The Talking Revolution has just been published on Amazon and Eddy and Peter are busy responding to queries about it from across the world. 

In tribute to all the great men out there in the world, who may or may not use Gillette products, I play a great record called Big Hearted Man by my long time friend, Jimmy Golding!

Following the them we have some more conversation on the We are relationships chapter of the book. In an age when sometimes there is so little to rejoice about, it’s great to hear such positive conversation. I’m excited as I’ve heard the next chapters and I can’t wait to share them all with you this year.

Thank you for all your feedback! Keep an eye out, this website should be upgraded very soon! Sending you my best for a wonderful week.

Welcome back to another new podcast! Sadly I was not able to finish part 2 of The Drum at the Gate of Thunder, but we do have the amazing William Woollard reading Chapter 11 from his wonderful book, The Case For Buddhism. Its all about Buddhism and money! Tonight we play a jaunty little jazz number by the amazing Robin Lukas, its called Le Fin and it from her album, Chianti and Olives! We will back soon, have a great week!

My dear friends, William, Donna and Dash

Tonights episode is the first of a few lectures on a letter Nichiren Daishonin wrote to Sennichi-Ama known as The Drum at the Gate of Thunder.Â

As the first lecture in some time, Jason talks about Buddhist study and goes into some depth on the background to this letter. He starts to explain some of the first passages and then, realizing he has run out of time, rather abruptly ends. Seriously, he has already started writing the next part! The podcast finishes with a wonderful song by the incredibly talented Jody Gnant, from the album Pivot, Great Day is one of Jasons all time favourite tracks! Check out her Jody’s website!

Thank you so much for listening, have a wonderful week!

Well, this one might come as a surprise! After reading the news last week and thinking about the news of this week and next, I thought I would try and get a lead on it with two brilliant talks from William Woollard on Negativity and Anger. William reads from his book The Case For Buddhism

I felt both of these chapters would be a compliment to one another and something to hold in mind as we go through these turbulent times. To keep our spirits up, Robin Lukas sings “Smile” from her album Beyond Paradise Edge.

More coming soon! Have an amazing week.

October 20th, 2018

Welcome to a fresh new podcast! William Woollard reads Chapter 8 from his very readable book, The Case For Buddhism. Its a slightly longer chapter about Buddhism in Daily Life. We play one of my favourite tracks called Pettigoe by Cat Malojian. More coming soon! Have a wonderful week.

July 29th, 2018

Welcome to another episode of A Buddhist Podcast! Tonight William Woollard reads Chapter 5, Buddhism and Ethics from his book, The Case for Buddhism. Its a great chapter that I’ve learned a lot from. Williams use of accessible language makes this a great book to give people who know nothing about Buddhism.

We play a fun track by Robin Lukas called How are you? I love it! As soon as there is an official final version, we will post links here! After getting some emails from listeners with huge challenges I decided to talk about my experience of taking on challenges and lose grief to help me become a better person. So lots of voices tonight and a couple of experiences too. The artwork for the episode is the last picture I had taken with my uncle, Barry Brooks who recently passed away. Barry introduced me to this practice.

Thank you to everyone for your support. The show continues to evolve!
