METTA HOUR PODCAST • Episode 39 • Buddha with a Smartphone

In Episode 39 of the Metta Hour Podcast, “Buddha With A Smartphone,” Sharon sits down with author and Buddhist teacher, Ethan Nichtern. Together they discuss with their live audience, life with a smartphone and how technology affects our spiritual development. Ethan highlights the use of technology as an escape mechanism and reminds us to be aware of when and why that is happening. Explaining our ability to turn the potential downfalls of technology into a weapon for positive change. How do we negotiate the extra layer of complexity that technology adds to our lives? Do the comforts it provides pull us too far out of the moment? Recorded live at the JCC Manhattan on June 22, 2016.
