From Deer Park Monastery, it’s Meet the Monastics.
As monastics, the most common question asked of us is, you guessed it, why did you become a monastic? I’m Brother Minh-An, a Buddhist monk in the Plum Village tradition of Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh. And this podcast is for anyone who’s ever wanted to ask that question. Each week, we’ll bring you my conversations with other fully ordained monks and nuns about their journey to monastic life and what inspires them now. We hope they inspire you to live a happier, kinder, and more meaningful life. And who knows, maybe some of you will even consider monastic life yourself.
Weekly episodes will begin on October 15, 2024 and you can listen wherever you get your podcasts (simply search for Meet the Monastics) or on the Deer Park Monastery YouTube channel.
