Manage episode 241382172 series 2538957
Ethan Nichtern is a Shastri, a senior teacher in the Shambhala Buddhist tradition, and currently senior teacher-in-residence for the Shambhala NYC community. His new book, The Dharma of The Princess Bride: What The Coolest Fairy Tale of Our Time Can Teach Us About Buddhism and Relationships - just came out - and I have the great honor of chatting with him about it today! We talk:
- Ethan's upbringing as a Buddhist, and when he committed to his Meditation Practice
- The Shambhala Tradition
- The Dharma of The Princess Bride (Ethan's new book)
- The Meta- like quality of The Princess Pride and how that connects to Meditation
- Friendship as being part of Spiritual Practice
- Why Trust is foundational for a good friendship
- Why there's no "Buttercup" or prince charming coming to save us, and how to live with the Uncertainty of Relationships
- Ethan's favorite part of writing The Dharma Of the Princess Bride
What are your main take-aways? Do YOU make Relationships part of your Spiritual path? I'd love to hear your thoughts.
