The Bad Buddhist Podcast

Edgar Hartley

Join your host, Edgar Hartley, as he takes and discusses the issues facing students of this path as they try to integrate its ancient teachings into our modern society. Edgar and his guests will talk about the benefits arising out of meditational practice and mind training that are unique to the Tantric path, and also highlight the darker side of Buddhist practice that many Buddhists won’t want you to hear about. Join us as we share truth, drop some facts and shine a light on the broken systems within Buddhism that have become harmful or no longer serve a beneficial purpose. We will ask our listeners to share their journeys as we try to answer the question: What do you do when being a good Buddhist just isn’t good enough?
