He has practiced Insight meditation for fifteen years, including many silent retreats and studies directly under Tara Brach and Jack Kornfield. He is a teacher with the Insight Meditation Community of Washington, teaches regularly at Downtown Dharma DC, and is the founder of the Riverside Meditation Community in Brookmont, Maryland. He has read hundreds of the Buddha's discourses, and his teaching stays close to those early texts, tested against his own practice and against what he sees each day in the therapy room. A licensed clinical social worker trained in Somatic Experiencing and Internal Family Systems, he is the founder of Oaklight Counseling , a therapy practice in Bethesda, Maryland. He lives nearby with his wife and three children.","last_synced_at":"2026-09-13T20:20:44.304344+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/dharma-7651813"},"episode":{"title":"The Second Noble Truth (Dukkhasamudaya)","slug":"the-second-noble-truth-dukkhasamudaya","published_at":"2025-07-17T14:43:02+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/dharma-7651813/the-second-noble-truth-dukkhasamudaya","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/dharma-7651813","url":"https://rss.com/podcasts/dharmaand/3060729","audio_url":"https://content.rss.com/episodes/397965/3060729/dharmaand/2026_08_11_09_27_22_6c703d7a-dfc2-43a9-b97c-fb3169259a86.mp3","summary":"This is the recording of the talk I gave Wednesday evening at the IMCW meditation class at the River Road Unitarian Church. I’ll be teaching there monthly. It’s worth coming in person if you can. The group discussions, which are not recorded, are full of love and humor and wisdom. This talk is on the second noble truth, described with a story about giving my kids honeysuckle nectar and their quest for more. I hope you find it helpful.
