    Yes, You Can Hold Compassion for People That You Hate. Becoming A Better Person For Humanity And Letting Go Of Hatred Once and For All. Let Healing Begin.

    In today's episode we talk about finding peace within ourselves and in the chaotic world we live in and holding compassion for those that we hate. With so much hate and greed taking over the news cycles we may find ourselves expressing similar emotions towards others. But what if I told you that you can hold compassion for those that cause you pain? It is our job to recognize our reactions to further limit pain for ourselves and others. That's right, reacting with hatred to hatred only creates more suffering for ourselves and others. Finding peace is not avoidance, it's honoring the present moment without being wavered. By recognizing our own reactions we can begin to see why others act in ways that upset us, and from there our healing can begin.

    How a Former School Shooter Found Peace Through Buddhism l Inside the Mind of Jon Romano

    Jon Romano committed a school shooting at 16. He never took a life, but he spent over 20 years in prison. Now, he travels the country speaking to law enforcement and communities about school shooters' mindsets and the path to reform.In this powerful conversation, we explore his transformation through Buddhism, his time in prison, and his experience being attacked at a homeless shelter while volunteering—an event that left him permanently disabled.Beyond his personal story, this episode dives deep into the Buddhist perspective on suffering, the mind, and the power of transformation. We explore how the mind, when left unchecked, can spiral into dangerous and destructive thought patterns—something Jon experienced firsthand. But through meditation and deep self-inquiry, he found a way to regain control and cultivate inner peace, even after years of turmoil.This discussion also sheds light on the urgent need for prison reform. Can Buddhist principles like mindfulness, compassion, and self-reflection help rehabilitate individuals instead of simply punishing them? How does our justice system fail to address the root causes of violence? We examine these questions through both Jon’s lived experience and the timeless wisdom of Buddhist practice.While this is an advanced discussion on Buddhism, it’s also deeply practical. Whether you’re new to Buddhist thought or have been practicing for years, this episode offers profound insights into how we can better understand the mind, prevent harm, and create a more compassionate society.All my links: https://linktr.ee/bradleymarcusis🔔 Subscribe for more deep conversations on existence, suffering, and healing.📩 Join my newsletter: https://bradleymarcusis.substack.com/publish/posts🎙️ Listen to the full podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/1haV0uoml6uuznt3ZE1Z34?si=_abSyPCmShuRbCDEBXsKaQ🎙 My Podcast on Youtube: https://youtu.be/JmjThYFY_Wo?si=uyMvIUkspi5ax8X1📘 My favorite book on Buddhism: https://mailchi.mp/d1ee59af408b/bradley-marcus-is🗣 Join the discord: https://mailchi.mp/12c6d4358518/nofj6000c9🧘‍♂️ Meditate with me: https://tinyurl.com/mt2tpecw

    You don't need a god to help you cope with life-threatening diseases.

    In this episode, we explore how Buddhists approach health challenges and life-threatening diseases. Unlike many religions that rely on a creator or deity for intervention, Buddhism teaches that there is no creator god.
