Jon Sensei Hits The Airwaves

Jon Turner Sensei recently appeared on the Paths of Practice (PoP) podcast with host Vincent Moore. PoP features interviews with people sharing their experiences with Buddhism and Buddhist practice.

In his discussion with Vincent, Sensei recounts his personal journey of embracing Buddhism after growing up in a Protestant household. He reflects on his transition from being a 'nightstand Buddhist' to becoming an active practitioner. Jon Sensei explains how integrating Buddhist practices into our daily lives can be achieved through small adjustments to our existing routines.

Other topics explored in the episode include the perception of Mahayana Buddhism in the United States, as well as the challenges faced by Westerners in understanding Shin Buddhism and its place within the American interpretation of Buddhism. Jon Sensei talks about Everyday Buddhist's distinctive Buddhist Course Pathway model and how it sets itself apart from other online Buddhism classes. From the Beatles to Shinran, it's an engaging and inspiring conversation.
