Ever make a right decision but the outcome seemed to be "wrong?" When making decisions related to food there is a way to avoid this scenario. A technique employed by a reportedly unattractive Greek man used it so well he was eventually executed for it. Sounds strange doesn't it? What is that technique? Sensei uses it in this deeply contemplative episode. Don't worry the outcome will be good...hopefully. Sensei used it on himself and is still here to talk about it. Warning, the taste may be bitter...…
 
In this episode, Sensei Derek reads a short excerpt from chapter one of his book Eat Like a Buddha. This chapter's title is 'Contemplation of Self.'

He also mentions the 'Four Horsemen' that drive your eating decisions. You definitely want to hear what these are. Overall this a concise sharing of a portion of the first chapter that will stimulate deeper thoughts about the psycho-spiritual aspects of eating!…
 
(Apologies if sound quality is not as good with ear/head phones as without. Tried every fix but none worked) Today, many people are concerned with various systems of oppression. Systems of oppression involving gender, economics, career opportunities, access to quality healthcare, ethnicity, affordable housing, education, animals and religion are common targets that people feel need to be resisted. But what about oppression related to food? Who is railing against this? Not many people are and the real reason they are not may disturb you. In fact, you may find it quite offensive...unless...…
 
In this episode, Sensei discusses how to bring magic back into everyday life. He emphasizes that while temporary experiences like vacations or new possessions can bring excitement, true magic comes from finding contentment in everyday activities. We can make the mundane divine with conscious attention and present awareness. But how does one actually do that? Tune in for an insightful exploration of an everyday activity that can bring the magic every day of your life when done right. If you want a deeper dive into the phenomenon of food and your relationship to it purchase Sensei's book: Eat Like A Buddha. It's available on Amazon in both paperback and hardcover.…
 
Who am I? How can I find myself? I need to find myself. These thoughts are ones you have likely held on more than one occasion.

Sensei has an alternative perspective (and approach) to this that will save you from a lot of unnecessary heartache and personal conflict. Press play to hear it.…
 
In the spirit of authentic communication, Sensei addresses one of the most complex issues in our time...the conflict in the Middle East.

Do you consider yourself to be a winner or a loser? In today's climate this may sound like a harsh question to ask another person. It's probably even more difficult of a question to ask yourself. Yet, you likely are implicitly living under the daunting shadow of this question every day of your life. The internet is full of people teaching you about "how to win. " In this episode, Sensei teaches you something far more valuable...how to win at not winning.…

In this third and final episode of Sensei's intro series on meditation, he addresses the third component which is wisdom. Wisdom in the Chan tradition, and in Buddhism generally, is one of the highest perfections or virtues that can be achieved. In contemporary times, wisdom has been watered down in meaning so much that almost any common sense understanding can constitute wisdom. Sensei restores wisdom to its rightful hight station in this episode. He simultaneously explains why one is not practicing meditation where wisdom is not the both the goal and result. The Buddha dedicated a significant portion of his life to teaching specifically about wisdom. The deep insights, and precious jewels of wisdom, are preserved for those who properly persevere in their meditation practice. Press play to hear how to cultivate this wisdom via meditation for yourself.…
 
In the first part of this 3 part series, Sensei discussed the importance of establishing an ethical standard (or moral code) as an essential ingredient of practicing meditation. Here, he describes the second component of meditation which is samadhi. Samadhi is a foundational pillar in the practice of Chan. (a.k.a Zen) There are a number of meditation techniques available to the Chan practitioner to help develop and deepen samadhi. As one develops a deeper understanding and practice of samadhi the lines between the state of "meditation" and "non-meditation" become feint and eventually fade away. But what is samadhi? How does one correctly practice and achieve it? This and related topics are covered in this episode.…
 
Meditation has been misrepresented and watered down through misguided marketing. Meditation is not about what many people, especially westerners, think it is. Sensei introduces you to the first of three components of meditation in this episode. If you want to get the real value of meditating, then you should listen to this 3 part series.…

It will require that you break with some deeply held conceptions about time that are believed by most people. If you're ready now...press play.…
 
Feeling good in your body? If you are like many the answer is "no" or "sometimes." To start feeling good (not not just ok) in your body will require a mind shift away from many deep rooted conventional notions. Unwittingly, many people have set a low bar both for feeling good and for how long it's possible to do so. Sensei offers precise insights into how you can actually begin feeling good starting today no matter where you are on the feel-good scale...…
 
It may sound strange to consider taking food as your guru!

Have you ever felt your life has lost its spice? That your life is just blasé, routine or boring? You are not alone in this. Many people are feeling this way.
