A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

You won’t regret listening to these talks by some of the best Buddhist insight practitioners and instructors in the world. You can listen to many different teachers and decide which ones speak to you ( or not). Highly recommend. Also: they need our support to keep their centers going and to make a living themselves. Thank you!! 🙏🏼

This community is full of well educated, wise people who care about the craft of an hour talk, a dharma talk, a lecture, a sermon. They often include humor, quotes, poems, and their life experiences. I was an occasional meditator prior to this podcast. Since, discovering the plethora of material here I’ve gone on retreats and my practice has deepened and grown in incredible ways. I personally found a spiritual home in this community which I view as grounded, sensible, inclusive smart and wise. It’s a total refuge in a wild world. Regularly listening to this podcast has been an ongoing educations. I would suggest people try and find specific teachers whose voice and approach works for them. Not every lecture/teacher is going to work for everyone but there are a lot of great ones featured here.

So much to choose from and a terrific variety of teachers. Excellent for anyone wanting to learn more about Meditation, Buddhism, or just basic mindfulness practice

I just wanted to second the other reviewer a few posts down from me; though I've slowly made my foray into the Dhamma since junior year of high school — these past two years, age 20 and 21, have been years of massive waves of confusion, loss and grief, and self-judgement. I am so glad for having found the Dharma early in my life, and for a reliable source of the teachings from organizations like DharmaSeed. It would not be overdramatic to say that they have saved my life. The Dharma is, truly, my excellent refuge.
