Ajahn Sucitto

Our energy systems can often feel burnt-out, depleting our vitality and potential. Attempts to re-energize can end up continually infecting us. Rewire the energetic lines through brahmavihara and samadhi cultivation. These culminate in awakening factors, and ultimately in awakening.

It Will Never Happen To Me
40:26
|
|
Ayya Medhanandi
|
|
|
Shrouded in the cloud of ignorance, we believe that suffering will never happen to us. But when we emerge from that fog into a radical simplicity of heart, suffering becomes our teacher. Our eyes are opened thanks to Right View and direct experience of the Four Noble Truths. At last we transcend the tyranny of fear.

Glorious Failure
57:54
|
|
Ajahn Sucitto
|
|
|
Over time we experience of the limitations of body and mind. What we rely on doesn’t actually work. Life is a failure, but we can make it a glorious failure. The practice of Dhamma-Vinaya helps keep the spirit bright and impeccable in what we do. Dhamma means to establish ethical clarity, mindfulness, lovingkindness; Vinaya is bringing these ideals and aspirations forth into a living context.

Eugene Cash

Exploring identification and attachment obscures the natural radiance. How dis-identification reveals the nature of mind. Buddha described a luminosity of mind. This talk explores the attachments and conceptualization that veil this luminosity and points us directly at the radiance of mind. Includes a guided meditation. The Buddha point to the luminous nature of mind. Our practice allows for recognition and realization of our natural luminosity.
