Super Soul Special: Jack Kornfield: Buddhism 101

In this Super Soul special, Jack Kornfield, one of America's foremost Buddhist teachers, breaks down the basics of Buddhism — its core idea that people are born whole and good, and how we can reconnect with that innate goodness. Drawing on his decades of training as a monk in Asia, he shares practical advice for staying present, quieting the mind, and building a lifelong spiritual practice. This accessible primer demystifies meditation and offers a gentle entry point for those curious about bringing mindfulness into daily life, whether you see it as a philosophy, a practice, or simply a way to live more fully.
