Triple Gem Of The North

In this podcast, Bhante Sathi explores the practice of sympathetic joy (mudita) as the ability to genuinely feel happiness for others' success by first understanding and cultivating joy within oneself, free from jealousy or comparison. True compassion and mindfulness allow us to make necessary judgments in daily life, not based on emotion or ego, but rooted in wisdom and intention. Through this balanced approach, even challenging roles like judges, teachers, or parole officers can be aligned with spiritual practice when guided by clarity, responsibility, and inner awareness.
