Folge 34: The old road of the heart. Henry Shukman in conversation with Usha Swamy about Zen and Awakening

Henry Shukman talks about the old way of the heart, which we can discover through meditation. It is a path that leads us into a deeper connection with the world. He shares his experiences on the Zen path, including his early awakening experience and what it meant for his journey moving forward. Why do we practice at all? We practice to let go of suffering, to untangle the knots in our psyche, and to experience the profound healing of realizing we are part of everything. This deep sense of love and belonging lies at the core of being human. Meditation practice plays a central role in this process—not simply to reduce stress or improve functionality, but to cultivate a loving presence and a deep connection with the world.
