b'In this episode we\\u2019re tackling some thorny dharma questions. For example: How do you love someone without attachment? How do you love yourself when the self is allegedly an illusion?\\xa0\\nOur guest today is a repeat customer, Kevin Griffin. He joined us a few months ago in an episode about the nature of craving and addiction. This time, Kevin\\u2019s back with a semi-skeptical take on loving-kindness -- that venerable, if somewhat misunderstood, Buddhist practice. Our conversation is centered around a book he wrote, called Living Kindness: Buddhist Teachings for a Troubled World.\\xa0\\nWe talk about lovingkindness vs. \\u201cliving kindness," the dangers of modern metta practice, and the idea that you don\'t have to feel love all the time (but can still seek to handle situations with non-ill-will). Please note: This conversation includes brief references to addiction and other forms of suffering.\\nIf you don\'t already have the Ten Percent Happier app, download it for free wherever you get your apps: https://10percenthappier.app.link/download-app.\\nFull Shownotes: https://www.tenpercent.com/podcast-episode/kevin-griffin-370\\n\\nSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.'
