2017-12-23 Sensing with Soul (Part 3) 28:36
Rob Burbea
PLEASE NOTE: 'The Mirrored Gates' is a set of talks (recorded by Rob from his home) attempting to clarify, elaborate on, and open up further the concepts, practices, and possibilities explained in previous talks on imaginal practice. Some working familiarity with those previous teachings will provide a helpful foundation for this new set; but a good understanding of and experiential facility with practices of emptiness, samatha, the emotional/energy body, metta, and mindfulness is necessary and presumed, without which these new teachings may be confusing and difficult to comprehend.

2017-12-23 Suitable Themes - Crystalizing the 1st Noble Truth 39:57
Ajahn Sucitto
Most of the time you might realize that you can’t meditate! This is why we have to go back to the beginning, not just once but repeatedly. Maintaining the field of awareness without getting involved with content is the beginning. Acceptance without adopting.

Listening to the earth through the soles of the feet asks attention to be more attentive, receptive.. [6:35] Walking Instructions: Notice the intention to move first. How is the body going to walk?

2017-12-23 Nourishment and Natural Repose 59:57
Ajahn Sucitto
Shifting gears from the fast paced speed of the world we’re invited to take up nutriment for careful attention – yoniso manasikara – to dispel hindrances. Widening the focus of attention and mindfulness of the whole body allows mindfulness and concentration to naturally develop.

2017-12-22 Meditation Instructions: 3 languages of Dhamma – mind, heart & body 40:39
Ajahn Sucitto
Learn to tune into these 3 languages that are happening all the time, but we don’t hear them. Mind language (thought) overwhelms and corrupts; learn the language of the heart and body.

2017-12-22 Introduction: Orientation that takes us through birth, aging & death 21:09
Ajahn Sucitto
Finding true orientation often begins with disorientation from the known. We look for orientation that can take us through birth, aging and death when everything is always changing. It’s Dhamma, the unconditioned, no need to hold on. That’s the ultimate security.
