The greatest gift is the
gift of the teachings
 
Marcia Rose's Dharma Talks
Marcia Rose
I find teaching to be a very deep and powerful "no self" practice. When I connect with others during Dharma talks--in the intimacy of small groups, and while holding meditation practice interviews--I am continually reminded to know, and be, in a place of clarity, spaciousness and immediate presence. Being able to offer students such a place of connection is my greatest pleasure and inspiration, as well as the most appreciated challenge in my teaching practice.

2016-02-09 The Liberating Embrace of Annicca-Impermance 1:13:51
The deep knowing & living with impermanence is a gateway to freeing the mind – freeing the heart. The only thing that we can really know for sure is the constancy of change. It's the most basic fact of our existence. Nothing lasts…nothing stays the same. So paradoxically the only thing that we can hold onto is the intuitive insight of impermanence, which arises out of direct experience within our practice and eventually brings a great relief and lightness into our life. We no longer need to haul around such a heavy load.

2016-02-02 Spiritual Urgency – Samvega 60:55
What are the seeds that bring you to practice? What moves and inspires you towards practicing…and what along the way of your practice keeps urging you towards sustaining & deepening in your practice? Samvega is the movement of the heart/an inner response…both within our formal meditation practice as well as outside of our formal practice times.

2015-10-30 The Seamless Circle of The Parami of Generosity 69:18
Brief description of talk: We usually think of generosity as the practice of offering…but in its fullness it's really both offering and receiving. This Dharma talk deeply explores this 'fullness' of generosity.
