ÜBER DIESE EPISODE
Envy may be the only deadly sin that isn’t any fun at all — but is it always destructive?
In this episode of Converging Paths, Rev. Eric Elnes, Rabbi Brian Mayer, and Zen teacher Myobun Esther explore the subtle ways comparison shapes our lives. From Cain and Abel to contemporary social tensions, they examine how envy can corrode connection — and how generosity, gratitude, and empathetic joy can transform it.
The conversation includes personal stories of envy, reflections on justice and fairness, and practical spiritual insights for turning resentment into growth.
If envy begins in comparison, perhaps healing begins in connection.
