#71: Finding Your Question in Spiritual Practice, Ken McLeod

In this episode I have a privilege to discuss again with Ken McLeod, who began his study and practice of Buddhism in 1970 under the eminent Tibetan master Kalu Rinpoche. We will be doing in-depth exploration of topics such as:

What is the nature of prayer in Buddhism - and what is the role of dilemmas in spiritual growth? Are religions really a centuries long conversations about a certain question - and what are these different questions?

Ken McLeod began his study and practice of Buddhism in 1970 under the eminent Tibetan master Kalu Rinpoche. After completing two three-year retreats, he was appointed as resident teacher for Kalu Rinpoche’s center in Los Angeles, California, where he developed innovative approaches to teaching and translation. After his teacher’s death in 1989, Ken established ⁠Unfettered Mind⁠, a place for those whose path lies outside established institutions. His published works include The Great Path of Awakening, Wake Up to Your Life, An Arrow to the Heart, Reflections on Silver River, A Trackless Path and The Magic of Vajrayana.

Here are some blog post in Finnish I wrote on his book Trackless path: ⁠https://tietoisuustaidot.com/2016/07/23/poluton-polku-1-1/
