In order to awaken joy we have to learn to have a healthy relationship with ourselves - holding our pain and sorrows as well as learning to appreciate all of our beautiful qualities.
Bob Stahl shares an inspiring Dharma talk on the 4 heavenly messengers and the Buddha's journey to awakening; with a brief meditation at the end for reflecting on heavenly messengers experienced in one's own life.
Our being has many frequencies of aliveness and as we attend to the more subtle, we discover a portal to the radiant awareness that is always here. This meditation guides us in using the breath and attention as we scan through the body and awaken an inner luminosity. We then open the attention to rest in the whole field of awake awareness.
