Still, in the City is a collection of stories about the practice of urban Buddhism - when a New York City subway becomes a mobile temple, when Los Angeles traffic becomes a vehicle for awakening, when a Fifth Avenue sidewalk offers a spiritual path through craving, generosity, and sorrow. Practicing in the city comes with its own set of challenges and opportunities, and this book is attuned to both.

When Carolyn Weber moved to Oxford University to study, she didn't expect to find God there. But she did. As she grappled with her newest and most important relationship, she also found that there was another invitation: to think bigger about love. In this book we follow Weber through courtship and into marriage and parenthood. Now a literature professor, Weber reflects on her relationship with a sometimes-absent father and how that has shaped her.

This is a podcast about passion, creativity, and self-improvement. We interview the “savages” of the world; the hustler, hard-workers, and those who push against the norms to execute on their dreams. We discuss mindset, processes, systems, and people. Our goal is to acknowledge your accomplishments, share your story, and inspire others to live in their creativity and execute their dreams. This is a "how-to" manual; a "you can do it too" manual. We want our “city of savages” to grow, and that starts with you. Thanks for listening! Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/...
