A Preview of Tricycle Week: The Kamma of Goodwill

Next week on Zen Commuter, we begin our popular Tricycle Week, a five-episode series where we explore and reflect on selected articles from Tricycle: The Buddhist Review. It’s a listener favorite and a perfect opportunity to dive deeper into the teachings of contemporary Buddhist writers. Today’s episode offers a preview with “The Kamma of Goodwill” by Thanissaro Bhikkhu, first published in 2022. In this thoughtful piece, we explore three key ideas: how goodwill is an intentional and skillful kamma (or action) that shapes our inner and outer world, why true goodwill requires wisdom and discernment rather than blind acceptance, and how developing this quality supports both personal peace and wise engagement with others. Be sure to tune in next week for a full week of insight and inspiration from the pages of Tricycle.   Meditation Coaching Schedule Time with Thom (Complimentary consultation)   THANKS FOR LISTENING!
