spirit friendlyClear, concise, objective teachings on the heart sutraI found it very refreshing to have such clear concise and objective teachings on the various ways One could interpret the heart sutra. I’m particularly pleased with the authors, exploration and translation of the concept trying to be captured by the word emptiness.

warnergogCompletely outstandingI was looking for a podcast that gives detailed information in background about Zen Buddhism, and this delivers that and much more. Domio Burk’s style is not only informative, it is inspiring. I am listening from the beginning and working my way through. I feel like I am listening to an in-depth, interesting lecture series.

guy in okcBeautiful and inspiringI have been obsessed with Zen Buddhism for around 50 years. Introduced by Alan Watts, so oriented toward the stripped down “see into your true nature” approach. I am operating on the assumption that the essence of meditation is present within all aspects of our experience. So the philosophical and behavioral details offered here are not important to me, but the enlightened intent of the podcast and the information and practices to help people become happier are possibly highly beneficial to many people. I listen while at the gym to help focus my attention on “the penetrating vision” and the obvious love and compassion expressed during the podcast is calming and encouraging.

RC Alabamaskillful meansJust found this podcast. Most of the podcasts I listen to from other Buddhist teachers are live recordings of their dharma talks. I enjoy this series for its practical theme-based approach. The episodes are also a good length. Looking forward to delving into the archive.

Sargent SaltExcellentReturning to Zen Buddhism, this podcast is very helpful. Straight and to the point, with personal experience added. The first episodes helped me get me through my first mini sesshin, during the breaks (don’t tell anyone, it was a silent retreat ☺️).

?!$Jow$!?All there isI love everything there is to love about these teachings. Speech cuts through silence and leads straight into the heartstrings. There is not much to recommend outside of who speaks in the intro. You’re with ____ would be a neat introduction as many know the podcast but few look at the creator prior to hearing

mommamindfulDraws me inThe host’s warmth and simple ways of communicating not so simple Buddhist principles makes me eager to more fully engage in studying as a lay practitioner. Thank you so much for the episode on the Bodhisattva way in these oh so difficult modern times.

KTHarrisonA true giftThis is the best podcast I’ve found on Zen Buddhism. Domyo Burk is a very gifted teacher. Her work and encouragement may actually be the turning point for me in terms of really doing more than just listening to the random dharma talk here and there. Thank you!

JBudkaClear, Concise and Practical Buddhist TeachingsThe hostess of the podcast is just wonderful. She does a terrific job of demystifying any ambiguity in the Buddha’s teachings, in a way that gives the listener actionable “how-it’s.” Her light hearted attitude is so uplifting, and her insightful explanations of the dharma are quite unique. Thank you for producing this!!!

elbgwnAn excellent communicatorDomyo is smart, digs into her subject, and explains a wide variety of Buddhist teachings simply and cheerfully. This is not easy to do! She’s a skilled communicator.

Lucky Dog TooOne of the best I’ve heard.Pretty much an A to Z explanation of the “Middle Way” as well as great Dharma talks in my opinion. Wonderful for people who are interested in Buddhism and seasoned practitioners as well.

Fox/ButterflyNew favorite!I’ve listened to one episode so far and it’s everything I’ve been looking for! It was the first episode about the 5 hindrances. Most Buddhist podcasts take one tiny piece of one story or sutra and then talk about stuff that’s barely connected to that piece. You actually dig “deep” into a topic (by comparison), and that was just the first episode in a series on the topic! I can’t wait to listen to more! Again, everything I’ve been looking for in a Buddhist podcast. Thank you :)

LBCRoseExcellent!Love this podcast! It really explains all the details I wanted to know. I like her voice and find it very relatable.

ZenreisamuraiFinally found it!I have been looking for a good beginners guide to Zen and Buddhism for quite some time. I have subscribed and unsubscribed after a single episode to quite a few, then I found Domyo Burk! I’m 30 episodes in and hooked. I love the blends of history, darma, and practice. Gives you a little of everything and is well organized and simple to understand. I feel like I’m learning a lot and look forward to each episode and have been incorporating the lessons in my every day life. Thanks!

Rae7MacPerfect timing on episode 110Listened to episode 110 on impermanence while driving nervously to the closing on my new house Wednesday. I was pleasantly surprised to hear Domyo walk me through sense of self and home buying! Perfect timing:)

Q MaximusA bit too liberal for meThe Buddha taught us how to transcend suffering, not how to save people from their suffering. When the village woman was mourning the death of her child and sought out the Buddha to resurrect the child, he sent her to collect a handful of mustard seeds before he would bring the child back to life. The only caveat was that she only could accept the mustard seeds from a house where no one had ever died. Of course, she failed and had to learn the hard way that with every birth there is death. This reality of nature seems lost when trying to save the world from suffering. It cannot be done, and is not the Buddha’s way. Instead, through his teachings, we learn to transcend suffering. Liberal democratic ideas of saving the world from suffering may be noble in Domyo’s politics, but it is not Buddhism. Even the Bodhisattva idea of saving all sentient beings is about saving them from the cycle of samsara, not saving them from suffering. Leave the politics aside, and you would have a much better podcast.
