    Birth, Aging, Sickness, & Death

    Rev. Mikey Noechel offers a talk and reflection on birth, aging, sickness, and death, and how they relate to the first noble truth of dukkha, as well the five daily remembrances.
    The five daily remembrances are:
    I am of the nature to age. I have not gone beyond aging.
    I am of the nature to grow ill. I have not gone beyond illness.
    I am of the nature to die. I have not gone beyond death.
    I will be separated from everything and everyone I hold dear.
    My only true possession is my actions.

Acknowledging deep hurt in your heart

I met Mikey at a trauma center and wondered what I’d get out of his teaching being raised Catholic. Low and behold I couldn’t wait to see him on Saturdays. I made sure to give him a T-Shirt that I gave to everyone there so he would know how much he helped me start the recovery for the lost of my son at 30 in an oilfield accident. I love you Mickey

Excellent Companion on the Path

Thoughtful, Open Hearted, and Thorough. A walk through complex teachings with a friend.

Warm, vital, human, true

What a wonderful series of teachings, consistently strong and humorous and relatable. Buddhist teachings for everyone, even for non-Buddhists. Insights about addiction for everyone, even those who do struggle with addiction. I’m grateful to have found this podcast.
