An Interview with Suvaco

Today I'm talking to former Buddhist monk, therapist and climate change activist, Suvaco. Suvaco spent twenty years living as a monk in the jungles of northeast Thailand, getting up before three in the morning, meditating for many hours a day and walking for miles to beg for one meal a day.

Born in Denmark and raised in Italy he now lives in the UK and works as a psychotherapist. Here he talks about the benefits and limitations of his tough monastic training, why transformation is always messy, and why in the current global crisis we need to follow our conscience and our hearts and do what we are here to do, not what we are told to  do by society

This is  a long interview so feel free  to pick it up and put it down. There are show-notes on my website www.monkonamotorbike.com with timings of what is being said and when

May you be happy!
