Float like a Canoe: Share Joy without Trying to Fix the Outside World | Eno #12, Parker | 11.5.21

Dhammarato cracks a few jokes about religion, politics, and education. He starts off with explaining the "dark night of the soul" and then brings the conversation around to the notion of "fixing the world" instead of just enjoying the ride with the world.
