Everyday Buddhism 32 - Buddhism, Baseball, and Life




Everyday Buddhism: Making Everyday Better show

Summary: Join me and round the bases for a look at baseball as a metaphor for the Buddhist teaching of the Three Marks of Existence: Impermanence, unsatisfactoriness, and the lack of a discrete self. Life, like baseball, is a team sport. In baseball, it's not just about the pitcher. In life, it's not just about me or you. In life, we can't do anything on our own. Baseball can break your heart and fill you with hope. No matter the pitch, we keep swinging until we get a hit. And we keep playing through the season.
