Everyday Buddhism 112 - Buddhist Response to Election Angst with Scott Snibbe

In this episode I invited Scott Snibbe to join me for a conversation about Buddhist responses to the anxiety, apprehension, insecurity, fear, dread, anger … and on and on … that some people are feeling now.

Scott Snibbe is a twenty-five-year student of Tibetan Buddhism whose teachers include Lama Zopa Rinpoche and His Holiness the Dalai Lama.

He is the author and host of the How to Train a Happy Mind book and podcast. Scott leads meditation classes and retreats worldwide in a style that will become evident in our upcoming conversation. His light-hearted approach is infused with humor, science, and the realities of the modern world.

Scott is a new media artist whose installations have been incorporated into museums, public spaces, and performances. He has collaborated with musicians and filmmakers including Björk, Philip Glass, Beck, and James Cameron, and his work can be found in the collections of New York MoMA, the Whitney Museum of American Art, and other institutions.

Listen in as we talk about how the Dharma can help us see things as clear and non-reactive as possible. In this conversation, we talk about:

The key to non-violent communications is listening.
You don't have to agree with someone to understand them.
The antidote to anger is curiosity.
No matter what other people believe, each is driven by a desire for happiness.
Radical acceptance and how acceptance IS transcendence.
And so much more…
