Every saint has a past, every sinner has a future.
I'm so excited for my show today, featuring my dear friend, the spirited and irreverent, Betsy Chasse about her newest book, Killing Buddha.
Spoiler Alert: No buddhas were killed in the making of this book.
Betsy borrows her title from the saying, "If You Meet the Buddha on the Road, Kill Him." (Sheldon Kopp)
In other words, "The most important things that each man must learn no one can teach him. Once he accepts this disappointment, he will be able to stop depending on the therapist, the guru who turns out to be just another struggling human being."
At a time when the Western New Age/New Thought movement has fallen into a series of self-help one-night stands and 3 steps to wealth and happiness, Killing Buddha is a refreshing reminder about what our true spiritual path is and an invitation to walk it.
On the show, we'll explore Betsy's newest book, Killing Buddha, guaranteed to tip our sacred cows (that's the title of one of her other books, by the way) and remind us that life is a journey best enjoyed with authenticity, vulnerability, laughter...and a bottle of chardonnay.
Warning: Don’t listen to this episode if aren’t willing to have your sacred beliefs challenged. In Betsy Chasse's latest book, Killing Buddha, she exposes both the ridiculousness and the sublimity of the spiritual journey in an authentic and humorous way.
Betsy's an award-winning filmmaker, best known as co-writer, director and producer of What The Bleep Do We Know?! (which ignited the New Thought industry for the new millennium). She's a best-selling author and has produced over 30 feature films and documentaries. (And yes, some of those would be considered porn.)
