World Wide Wise Speech | 8/17/2023 Mindful Q&A #11

In this eleventh installment of the ongoing live series with Wendy Nash inquiring into meditation practice on and off the cushion, we chat about how complex speaking wisely can be. We get into the confusion of words spoken amongst various social and cultural contexts and situations; guidelines; kindness; authenticity; perceptions, intent; responsibility; non-harm; assumptions; dogmatic ideas; entitlement; empowerment; being of service; infringement; and various polarities like callousness and oversensitivity, saying something despite knowing better and not speaking up when you know you need to, and differences amongst and between genders.
