"People say the world is going to hell in a hand-basket, but that's only half the story. There is a lot of suffering that really needs our honest compassion and tending, but it also needs hope. If you go into a refugee camp and you're depressed and worried; they don't need that, they already have plenty of that. They need somebody that comes in and says, 'We human beings can make the world better." – Jack Kornfield

In this episode, Jack and Prince Ea steam in:

Meeting all facets of the world with optimism and hope
Why we should never underestimate the human heart
Mindful presence, loving awareness, and waking up to who we are
Overcoming fear and not buying into the scare tactics used in politics
What it was like for Jack to meet and learn from Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
The story of Jack becoming a Buddhism monk and finding Vipassana meditation
Unpacking compassion as a verb, rather than empathy which is inactive
