About this episode
What is Buddhism? Many of us have come from some very negative or challenging experiences with organized religion and the idea of religion can be quite difficult and complicated. Gregory talks about our cultural ideas around spirituality, religion, and whether one calls themselves "Buddhist". He also chats about how Buddhism's more unique qualities compare to other major world religions.
