How Do You Love Without Being Attached? | Kevin Griffin

How Do You Love Without Being Attached? | Kevin Griffin

New episodes come out every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday for free, with 1-week early access for Wondery+ subscribers.

---


Today we're tackling some thorny dharma questions. For example: How do you love someone without attachment? How do you love yourself when the self is allegedly an illusion?


Kevin Griffin is both a long time Buddhist practitioner and also a 12 step participant, and in another previous episode we talked to him about the nature of craving and addiction. In this popular episode from the archives, Kevin talks about his semi-skeptical take on loving kindness – that venerable if somewhat misunderstood Buddhist concept and practice. His book is being re-released this month, with a slightly new title Living Kindness: Metta Practice for the Whole of Our Lives.


In this conversation, we talk about:

  • Loving kindness versus living kindness
  • The dangers of modern loving kindness practice
  • The idea that you don't have to feel love all the time
  • And we talk about a Buddhist text called the Metta Sutta.


Content Warning: The interview includes brief references to addiction and other forms of suffering.
