    Rev. Christie Bates (Passatininna), a licensed professional counselor and ordained Buddhist lay minister of the Embracing Simplicity Contemplative Order, speaking as co-founder and teacher of Deep South Dharma, Mondays 7PM CT. This episode is a recording of the 9/20/2021 talk and discusses aspects of "practice," death and the Buddha's awakening to 1) his own cycles of death and birth, 2) how actions condition those cycles, and 3) the Practice or Path that leads to freedom from those cycles.
