Welcome to Episode #1 of the Podcast. Thanks so much for joining me! In this episode I try to talk about discipline, especially what may be the parallel relationship between discipline, practice, liberation, and awakening. In the course of the conversation I reference Jocko Willink, Hanshan, Dogen, Xuyun, and the Shawshank Redemption...if that's not an interesting combination I just don't know what is. Enjoy!Here's link to the video: https://youtu.be/uHAkNjdgF74Here's a link to the transcript: https://thetattooedbuddha.com/2019/01/03/no-shortcuts-we-get-there-through-discipline-putting-the-work-in/Below you'll find links to all the books and content I referenced in the video, as well as all the gear I use to make videos and podcasts.
