Summary of Ordinary Life for June 30, 2024

Dear Ones -

The title I gave to the teaching I offered in Ordinary Life this week was…

Ease and Entertainment

One way to explain our state of cultural chaos is that the religion of our culture, consumerism, has convinced us that everything in life is easy (or, ought to be) and that the main purpose in life is to be entertained. A solution is to be found in developing a realistic hope, accepting “what is,” and finding the “religion within the religion: that the living religious traditions offer us.

That’s a brief summary of this week’s time in Ordinary Life.
