Know what you're getting into

I really appreciate this talk, and I plan on listening to it again when I can be in a more meditative state. It's a live performance, with all the pauses and extra background noise that comes with that. I felt it only added to the performance. A great way to start my study of Buddhism.

My ears!!!

I couldn't listen to ten minutes of this. The narrator hisses at the end of each pause and sentence. OMG it is absolutely horrible. I'm sorry it's not a very zen like thing to say, I wanted to save your ears.
