In this interview, Tara Brach speaks with Krista Tippett about her varied work with The On Being Project, including The Civil Conversations Project, and the courage to awaken our hearts in the spirit of service and compassion for the collective good.
Session highlights:

Love it! what we practice, we become!
Everybody can become compassionate by practicing compassion….Thank you Krista.
Once again a profound message of the huge ripple effect of the seemingly small action of allowing the space to see through the eyes of another with whom you may be in conflict with or in opposition too. Thank you so very much.
Yet another wonderful speaker. Just when I thought they couldn’t get any better
Tara, thank you for inviting Krista Tippett into this mix of personal feelings and neuroscience exploration. Until now, these two sides of the ocean of mind and heart life so very far apart for someone like me whose studies are mostly in poetry and creative writing. I appreciate the energy and seemingly effortless choreography of all this shared learning about our human condition . . . and the possibilities of what comes next, ultimately expanding our capacity for curiosity and compassion. Blessings!
Love your comment, my very sentiments
Tara- I just want to fall down and appreciate you for what you are doing!
You are a true time spirit! guiding light to so many of us with such simplicity
I bow to you keep you in my heart and see you in your true goodness with loads of appreciation and love! gratitude & love
