I am finishing up a master’s degree and working full time. This show has helped me to stay sane. I love sharing it with my children and having discussions about what is important in life.

I found this podcast at a perfect time when my mother passed away and I was dealing with building a relationship with death. I was also going through a divorce at the same time, and listening to each episode and meditating helped me let go of anger. I plan on listening to the episodes from the beginning again.

What a jewel in the internet cosmos this podcast is. The resonance and self recognition exhilarate consciousness.

Thank you for creating this podcast, Noah! I was raised Christian and really enjoy learning about the Buddhist teachings. They help open up my mind. Thank you for helping me be a better whatever I already am. ;) If you're new to Buddhist teachings and want to learn more, I highly recommend listening to this podcast.

I wish I found this podcast earlier in my life, it calms me and help me to see life, people and myself with a wider perspective. Noah has the ability to explain deep thoughts and teachings in a way that is so easy to understand, I really appreciate his work!

Each episode is powerful in its simplicity, offering practical and deeply thoughtful reflections on mindfulness and Buddhist principles, without any religious overtones. The host’s articulation is exceptional—ideas are shared in a clear, grounded way that makes complex concepts feel accessible and relevant to daily life. Listening feels like a gentle reminder to be present, to reflect, and to find calm amidst the chaos. This podcast has become a true refuge, and I can’t recommend it enough for anyone seeking a bit of peace and clarity

This show has been helping me as I venture into the most challenging time of my life. Thanks for the great content!

I take a moment out of being busy and listen to the podcast. It inspires, calms and redirects my thoughts and actions.

Quite discourage’s and disgusted over examining people ‘s believes l! Try another venue people!

Noah breaks down concepts of Buddhism in a way that is easy to understand and apply to every day life. This podcast has helped to learn the concepts of Buddhism and how to look inside myself for growth and strength. It’s great for all levels of learning. Thank you Noah.

I stumbled upon this podcast recently and I really enjoy the pace and the content. Lays out the fundamentals of Buddhism in an easily understandable way. Look forward to listening more and possibly joining a zoom call soon. Thank you for sharing your experience and knowledge on Buddhism.

fantastic guided meditations ans insights

I appreciate Noah’s explanations on Buddhist philosophy that makes it feel practical and applicable. His words are thoughtful and clear and I enjoy listening to his opinions that I can easily relate. His tone is steady and soft. He comes across as a caring individual who has the best intentions with every word. I am proud to have been following Noah since he began his podcast. It has helped shape my life.

These podcasts changed my life… I cannot thank you enough… I was at a point in my life where I was going through a difficult time. With Secular Buddhism and minimalistic life style I was again able to breathe and let it all be … Thank you very much Noah… you made a difference in my life, helped me see things differently.

Noah Rasheta's podcast is a refreshing source of wisdom and insight. As an atheist with a keen interest in the human mind, philosophy, and navigating life's challenges, I've found his content to be incredibly helpful and enlightening. It's become a staple during my daily commute, and I'm even diving into his book now. I wholeheartedly recommend this podcast to anyone seeking personal growth and stress relief.

This podcast had truly helped tremendously. It’s helped me understand non attachment and the root of all suffering. Thank you, Noah! My one request is I wish this was a weekly podcast.

I’d studied an attempted to follow Dharma for many years but only after hearing Noah’s descriptions of the various teachings did they become real principles that I could incorporate into my daily life.

Noah’s podcast is great for everyone. People who are simply curious about what Buddhism teaches, to people who want to start learning these teachings and skills to apply them to their own lives. If you listen from the beginning, you can also follow Noah on his journey as he grows stronger in his skills and knowledge of Buddhist practice and teachings. His forthright and practical approach to the teachings, and how he sometimes shares how he’s applied these to some of his greatest personal challenges, has helped me greatly. Thank you so much!

Whether you are new to Buddhism, just curious, or have been saying for years…you will learn things here. Fantastic podcast.

Noah Rasheta offers this gift of his years of study and learning in a simple and clear podcast. My anxiety has been profound in the wake of a faith crisis. Therapy has been only marginally helpful and very expensive. Nothing has given me so much hope of finding peace again as these simple healing concepts. Here we have reality rather than “truth” and observation rather than “belief.” You will find no doctrine or controversy here. Just a path to a much needed awakening.

Noah is able to share Buddhist ideas and principles that are extremely non-threatening and helpful. I’ve been able to share many of his episodes with people of faith and they have been well received. Noah has a very even temperament and attitude. Each principle taught is another layer opened inside my own consciousness. Thank you Noah.

I love the way Noah breaks down difficult concepts and makes them simple to understand.

I am a 45 year old recent law school grad who has struggled to integrate my new studies into my personal ethics and desire to make the world a little better by me having been here. This has helped me in so many ways. Separating the information from the religious labels and context makes it more universal for me . I come here to see the bigger picture when my studies invite me to get sucked into the world of very defined laws. It has helped me integrate these views into my life and not lose myself. And to realize that I can have both and be more effective integrating both. Thanks for being you .

This podcast is amazing and it has helped me immensely. Thank you, Noah for putting this out there and helping me.

If I could give this 10 starts I would. The effort that Noah puts into the pod casts is outstanding. The content is easy to understand and relatable. I am so thankful to have found this on my mindfulness journey. Thank you Noah for sharing.

I’m about a dozen episodes in and I’m learning so much. I can’t wait to listen to every episode. And then do it again!

This podcast has helped shape me and change me (for the better) in ways I never thought possible. I am such a better husband, father and human being because of this show. I can’t thank you enough for the work you do in putting this together! I have bought your book, read it, and highly recommend it to all that enjoy this podcast!

All my life I’ve tried to figure out my religion. I now know that I’m an Episcopalian Buddhist.

Thanks to you I am now an Atheist with Buddhist tendencies! ✌️❤️

I have been listening to your podcast for the last few years and am finally taking the time to leave a very belated review. Life is challenging and confusing but you help to make it less so. I just wanted to say thanks for making me a better whatever I already am. For those unfamiliar with the podcast and with Buddhism, Noah has a very gentle and unassuming approach to learning which really resonates. If you are a skeptic or a cynic by nature with regard to first principles (as I am) listen freely to the show and see how often you find yourself tilting at windmills. In other words, Noah is a disarming teacher who will help you see things just a little bit more clearly for the way things really are.

Love this direction of Buddhism. I start my day listening to an episode and it really sets a good tone for my day.

Your podcast makes Buddhism come alive. It has been a useful tool for me. First, I practiced it after listening to the way it is defined in episodes 1-5. But I made many mistakes based on my preconceived notions. As time moves forward, the principles start to work in the ways that are helpful. Thank you for making my life much better!

Thank you Noah! I have been interested in Buddhism for years and this program is the first one to grab and retain my attention. A treasure.

Thank you Noah! Your podcast is exactly what I needed. I love that there isn’t a bunch of fluff.

Thank you, Noah for your amazing podcast. You are helping me and so many others be the best versions of ourselves.

This is my favorite podcast to listen to. Highly recommended.

I love this podcast. When I’m having a rough day, I often listen to an episode and Noah’s dharma talks help me look at whatever I’m going through in a new way. I am so grateful and hope he keeps making episodes!

Noah is awesome and has a certain way of explaining things as if he was interviewing himself. When my day hasn't been the best this podcast always helps ground me.

I’m discovering something new. I practice jediism which incorporates Buddhism and Taoism and this podcast is really helping me out. It has such great life wisdom and the force grows with me. Thank you so much for this.

I am enjoying listening to this podcast as I embark on a new journey of discovery.

I really enjoy and appreciate this podcast. It strikes the right balance for me and the place I’m in currently. Noah is an excellent host and teacher. Thanks!

I’ve been listening to this podcast on and off for about a year and a half now. I always start from the beginning and it’s amazing to see how much I’ve grown to understand the lessons only to find a new, deeper meaning this time around. Noah Rasheta has the beautiful ability to articulate the teachings in a simplistic while profound way. I’ve never actually made it past episode 5 — every time I start listening again, I realize there’s so much more to understand in just those first episodes alone. Truly life changing in the most fundamental ways. Thank you, Noah.

Listen to the first 5 episodes to begin.

I’m so grateful for your way of explaining in a simple and straightforward way. Is opening a door to such healthy and peaceful way of thinking and living when applied. Thank you for opening this door, is personally bringing me knowledge and peace.

This podcast is fantastic. It’s easy to understand and apply directly. It’s almost as though each lesson speaks directly to me.

Hi Noah, I just wanted to say I love your podcast and that the way you interpreted the phone number truths made it easy for me to understand them. You also talk about other subjects such as mindfulness and the eightfold path that was also clear for me to understand. Through my trekking of different Buddhist podcasts they can get a bit confusing of their explanation on Buddhism. I appreciate your candor, keep up the great work, be well.

I started listening to Noah when he was about 20 episodes in and listened consistently until around episode 130. His work was the best intro to Buddhism I have come across! I tried listening to Steve the theologian guy and it was way too technical for me. I am just an Engineer, I am not intelligent enough to understand theological debate. As a fellow former Mormon, Noah’s struggle hit home to me and I knew how excruciating his suffering was. When I was in college I naively thought Buddhism was about the reduction of suffering. Now after countless hours of meditation and breathe work I know Buddhism is about pure love. I am eternally grateful to have Noah as a digital teacher. Thank you Noah! Namaste, brother.

As a Buddhist and someone dealing with Western ideals, this has been such an eye opener. From ‘Dependent Origination’ to ‘Things Fall Apart’ — Noah is a master at making complex Buddhist ideals make ‘real life sense’

The content is great, but storytelling is sometimes very long and has a bit unnecessary ranting. For instance, in his ‘first and last’ episode, the host has gone on and on about a guy called Dustin, which can make one wanting to quit listening especially if you’re listening in the morning / for some peace. If examples could be pithy and narrative could be more to the point, it would be great.
