Episode description

The Buddha taught that we don't hold to fixed views.   Politics often finds its way into spiritual context and can be a slippery slope.    Some of us may assume that all Buddhist have the same stance on particular issues but this is rarely the case.    Some political situations are important to bring up in a Buddhist context and a definitely place of investigation. How do we work with our own fixed views and the fixed views of others.   Our practice, may bring us to a place of softening such views which then might  create a place of common ground.
