A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

I rely on Gil and IMC teachers for their daily dharma talks and guided meditations. So much gratitude for their wisdom and support!🙏🏼 Also: The retreats offered by Insight Retreat Center are affordable and life changing. ☸️ IMC is an integral part of my practice 💓

Kim🙏🏼 · Apr 2026

I come to Imc teachers for guidance, refuge, perspective, to hear and learn how the dharma is applied to real, current, everyday life. I don’t hear these teachers speak about the violence present in the culture today. I long to hear the essential message of non-violence central to Buddhist understanding and practice. Please, speak clearly —with no excuses, no exclusions, no exceptions, no politics, no virtue signaling, no grandstanding, non convoluted or archaic terminology, please just plain, simple, universal teachings and practices of non-violence for everyone.

I only wish I had come across this podcast earlier -- like say 1968! So much wisdom I could have used growing up. Gil has become a regular companion, and I could not ask for a better guide. ❤️

Nikki Mirghafori walks the walk. She has learned and practiced the dharma including during her own very challenging times. When Nikki interviewed on my Beat the Prosecution podcast, she riveted me with her devotion to mindfulness and to teaching others mindfulness. You will thank yourself for listening to Nikki.
