The One You Feed: A Conversation with Sharon Salzberg

In this episode, Eric Zimmer and Sharon Salzberg discuss her view on Lovingkindness after teaching about it for 20 years, understanding the ways that we are all connected to each other and the difference between lovingkindness and compassion. They also discuss how lovingkindness and compassion don’t equate to weakness, life lessons manifesting during meditation, the essential question to ask ourselves, the Four Noble Truths, watching our thoughts like an elderly person watches children in a park and how the difference between happiness and misery depends on where we place our attention.
