The Dhammapada for Sleep - A Heart at Peace (Ep. 3)

Tonight is another episode in the Dhammapada for Sleep series, and for the first time we spend the night with two of the book's chapters side by side. One is called The Thousands. The other describes the wise. Together they help us understand the answer to the question: what really matters in this life?
Through original stories and calming Buddhist teachings, we let that answer settle in slowly, one verse at a time. Every part of this series stands on its own. You can begin here, tonight, with nothing to catch up on, and no knowledge of Buddhism or meditation is needed.
This is made for rest, for the last hour of the day, and for the slow drift toward sleep. If tonight brought you some ease, feel free to follow this sleep podcast for more calming Zen Buddhism and gentle stories to fall asleep.
Original commentary, stories and script by Midnight Monk. ✨🧘🌙
