Goodness Shattered w/ Dave Cuomo
Manage episode 426096133 series 2284883
“It freaks me out to even think about ordaining someone whose goodness hasn't been shattered.” - Gyokei Yokoyama
First, we learn to be good. Then we have that goodness shattered. And then, when we stop trying to do anything, the true goodness can shine through. Dave walks us through Baizhang’s three teachings to try to find out if we are inherently good or bad by nature and whether thinking like that does us any good. Did we really learn everything we need to know in kindergarten or have we just forgotten how cruel kids can be? Are dogs ever to blame (absolutely not)? Are cats (ok, maybe)? Has scolding someone every helped anyone?? Find out here!
