| 5 | VideoEp. One, Noah Levine - The Dharma of Sex | Welcome to Hot Bread for the New Planet. I'm your host, Sam Benjamin - so pleased to have you here. The purpose of this podcast is to discuss a wide variety of provocative topics with exceptional educators, visionaries, and unique thinkers of all stripes. Today we speak with Noah Levine, Buddhist teacher and psychotherapist, as well as author of notable books "Dharma Punx" and "Against the Stream." Recently, I had the pleasure to study with Noah for one month at Big Sur's Esalen Institute. Always an engaging and articulate lecturer, Noah often used the word "Dharma" in his lectures to speak of a concept of "truth." Our discussions ranged from right speech to right action, from suffering to compassion - but did not often touch upon sex or sexuality for a prolonged period. I wondered whether there existed in the teachings of the Buddha a "Dharma of Sex" - which is to say, teachings that concerned honesty and close self-examination in an area of life that often defies such introspection. What follows is our short discussion. Enjoy. | 6/2/10 | Free | View In iTunes |
