The Empty Cup

An empty cup is not blankness; it’s availability. It is the willingness to look more closely at our assumptions, to meet life in a relaxed manner with an open heart. Open to accepting the present moment as it is. If your mind is full—full of opinions, expectations, habitual thinking—, this podcast invites you to sit back, relax and be emptied.Copyright Tsering Paldron Philosophy Social Sciences Spirituality

  • The Heart of Sadness

    The Heart of Sadness
    May 19 2026

    There is a kind of sadness that is not only about loss. When what we rely on falls away, something older is revealed—an underlying openness we usually try to cover. When we dare to face it, we develop the courage to remain open. Even when nothing is resolved. Even when nothing is promised. Even when life does not give us what we hoped for.
    This episode explores what happens when we do not rush to fill that space, and how the ache, when met directly, can soften into a quiet tenderness.

    The eyelash in the eye
    May 4 2026

    For some, the unease of being is barely noticeable. For others, it is immediate and intimate.

    This episode explores that quiet, persistent ache—and what becomes possible when we stop trying to cover it, and begin to look more closely.

  • Detachment

    Detachment
    Apr 21 2026

    Detachment is often misunderstood. It is not avoidance. Not indifference. Not a way of withdrawing after being hurt. It is not an excuse to escape commitment or responsibility. Detachment is closer to sovereignty. It arises naturally when we begin to live from within, rather than from the sense of being separate and incomplete.
