What Sages See and Know

Gil Fronsdal is a dharma teacher at the Insight Meditation Center in Redwood City, California,  and at Spirit Rock Meditation Center in Woodacre. He has practiced extensively in the Soto Zen and Theravada Buddhist traditions, and he draws from both traditions in his framing of what he calls naturalistic Buddhism.

In this episode of Tricycle Talks, Tricycle’s editor-in-chief, James Shaheen, sits down with Fronsdal to discuss what he means by naturalistic Buddhism, how we can train ourselves in what we want to become, and how the practice of naturalistic Buddhism can help us become free.
