Buddhists in Babylon with Devin Berry and Molly Zapp
What can spiritually engaged lives for laypeople in these times look like? Could they be... funny? Enjoyable? Authentic and meaningful? Buddhists in Babylon is a student-teacher dialogue where Insight meditation teacher Devin Berry and journalist Molly Zapp try to live in the Dharma without pretending the world isn’t on fire - or being consumed by the flames. Off the cushion, and into the streets, classrooms, crisis zones and kitchen tables of modern life.

"We don't have to outsource the belonging. We can be with ourselves," - Devin Berry
Welcome to Buddhists in Babylon, a student-teacher dialogue between Insight Meditation teacher Devin Berry and journalist Molly Zapp. In this first episode, Devin and Molly consider what it is to lead a spiritually engaged life in these times. What is gained, and what might be lost, by going on meditation retreats, but not to church? What is the value of spiritual community?
Greed, aversion, ignorance, dukkha: yep, all still here. What can the dharma teach us about how to live through difficult times with skillfulness and a mind that touches peace? How can we practice compassionate responsiveness to the suffering of the world without stabbing ourselves with the second arrow of suffering (or the 27th arrow)?
