Have you ever wished there was a talk show that featured all Buddhist guests?
Would you like to take part in intimate conversations with some of the most interesting minds in the Buddhist world? Would you like to be the first to hear what they’re currently working on, what their practice looks like, what they’re thinking about these days? Would you like the opportunity to ask them questions and receive their guidance on how to live a more inspired life?
If so, we’d like you to join us for Wisdom Dharma Chats. Taking place on Wednesdays over Zoom, the Dharma Chats are a special live video version of the popular Wisdom Podcast (which has 1 million downloads and counting). We think you’ll leave the Dharma Chats feeling energized and newly inspired to practice and follow your own spiritual path.
Each Wisdom Dharma Chat takes you on a fascinating exploration of Buddhism and meditation as our guests share stories and discuss life-changing practices, timeless philosophies, and new ways to think and live. These chats are followed by a Q&A session in which you can ask your own questions to our guests. Episodes have featured guests like Robert Thurman, Ven. Robina Courtin, and Yongey Mingyur Rinpoche. See below for this week’s special guest and to watch previous episodes!
"Join us for our next Wisdom Dharma Chat with Pema Sherpa and Brendan Barca! "
PEMA SHERPA & BRENDAN BARCA
JOIN HOST DANIEL AITKEN FOR AN EPISODE OF
WISDOM DHARMA CHATS
ON WEDNESDAY, JUNE 4, 2025 at 7:00 PM EST
We’re delighted to invite you to an inspiring new episode of Wisdom Dharma Chats, where we’ll welcome Pema Sherpa and Brendan Barca, coauthors of the transformative new book The Daily Buddhist. This event will be held live in New York City with the option to join us virtually via Zoom on Wednesday, June 4, at 7:00 PM EST.
In this conversation, Pema and Brendan will join host Daniel Aitken to explore the power of daily Buddhist practice and how small, consistent insights can lead to profound inner transformation. They’ll share key themes from their book—such as mindfulness, self-compassion, emotional resilience, and taming the inner critic—and offer practical guidance on integrating ancient Buddhist wisdom into modern daily life.
Drawing on their diverse experiences—from corporate mindfulness training to traditional study under great Tibetan masters such as Dudjom Rinpoche—this session will offer a unique and contemporary lens on how the Dharma can support lasting happiness in today’s world. We hope to see you there!
