Following A Path with Heart

Aired Thursday, 4 July 2019, 4:00 PM EST / 1:00 PM PST

Pennie and Matthew will be discussing Following a path with heart. To follow a path with heart, we must understand the whole process of making war, within ourselves and without, how it begins and how it ends. War’s roots are in ignorance. Without understanding, we can easily become frightened by life’s fleeting changes, the inevitable loss, disappointments, the insecurity of aging and death. Misunderstanding leads us to fight against life, running from pain or grasping at security and pleasures that by their nature can never be truly satisfying. Our war against life is expressed in every dimension of our experience, inner and outer. Our children see, on average, eighteen thousand murders and violet acts on TV before they finish school. The leading cause of injury for women in the west and east is beatings by men they live with (and also women beating men and committing verbal violence). We carry on wars within ourselves, with our families and communities, among races and nations worldwide. The wars between peoples are a reflection of our own inner conflict and fear. Hope you can join us for this amazing show.
