In the August episode, Fr. Isaac Slater joins host Aaron Lelito to talk about how he developed a love for writing, life as a contemplative monk, and his new book, "Do Not Judge Anyone": Desert Wisdom for a Polarized World. Along the way, we cover some poignant (and humorous) lessons from the Desert Fathers, the role of spontaneity and improvisation in spiritual practice, and how self-judgement is related to our outlook on others. Fr. Isaac closes us out with a great story of Zen Master Ryōkan and a reading of his poem "Constellation."
