James Baraz

In Tibetan teachings the Lion's Roar is the "fearless proclamation that every situation is workable." Being humbled can lead to a profound, wise humility, doubt can lead to strong confidence and vulnerability and can be the path to fearlessness.
James presented another version of this talk at the February 2010 month-long retreat at Spirit Rock. |
