Life Advice for High School and College Students Part One

Life Advice for High School and College Students Part One

Author: Yeshe Rabgye July 30, 2021 Duration: 31:03
This is part one of a special four-part interview series aimed at High School and College Students – but the information is relevant for everyone. Darsh Pant interviewed me for his ‘In Conversation’ series. In this session, we discuss the difference between meditation and mindfulness, how to deal with anxiety and why we shouldn’t identify with our thoughts. I would like to thank Darsh for giving me the opportunity to talk to the students. Darsh Pant is an incoming freshman at the University of Western Ontario’s Ivey School of Business. He just graduated from Delhi Public School International, India. He is passionate about learning from and helping his community of high school and college students and that is why he started his ‘In Conversation’ series, where he gets accomplished people in all fields to provide advice and guidance to teenagers.

In a world often filled with noise, Buddhism Guide offers a space for practical reflection. Hosted by Yeshe Rabgye, a Buddhist monk originally from England, this podcast approaches ancient wisdom with a grounded, secular perspective. Yeshe travels internationally, sharing teachings on meditation, mindfulness, and mental well-being, but here he distils those conversations into accessible audio sessions. The tone is deliberately unpretentious, stripping away cultural ornamentation to focus on the core principles that can be applied to modern life. You won't find dogma here; instead, each episode invites a personal examination of your own mind and experiences. Yeshe presents ideas with clarity, never demanding blind acceptance but encouraging thoughtful inquiry. Whether exploring the nature of suffering, the mechanics of meditation, or the everyday cultivation of compassion, this podcast serves as a pragmatic companion. It’s for anyone curious about how Buddhist thought can inform a more resilient and aware existence, regardless of spiritual background. Tuning in feels less like attending a lecture and more like engaging in a considered dialogue, one that values your own insight as much as the teaching itself.
