The program tonight began with a short guided meditation. Shusara answered a listeners question about making changes to the personality - is this bad?The rest of the session focused on the state of mind called shame. In closing, Shusara pointed out the symbolism of the Buddha under the Bodhi Tree to all of us living our lives here.

Tonight's show began with revisitng the teaching of the Buddha: The cup is already broken, or as Shusara would say, the only thing permanent here is impermanence. Shusara answered the question of how ego is different from mind. We then looked at the need for people to begin objectively observing their own personality and stop playing the victim role. Having a sense of humor and living in kindness were both encouraged and elaborated on.

The program began with a brief discussion about the subtle, and not so subtle, physical cues people receive when they have been triggered. We then talked about the value of "self-help" work in this paradigm, pointing out the paradox that exists between how it functions here,  as opposed to within non-polarity. Shusara spent some time advising everyone on how spiritual ego wants to negate certain levels of teachings and edify others. It is imperative that we view all things as equal.

Topics for the session include: 

- staying in one's innocense during these chaotic times

- the pitfalls of having expectations towards meditation

- misconceptions about functioning in the world from an enlightened state and the subtleties of spiritual   ego
