2024-05-29 Meditation: Listening to Life 18:23
Tara Brach
The attitude of meditation is one of engaged listening – a relaxed, receptive yet intimate attention. This meditation explores how we can listen to sounds, listen to and feel sensations, and then relax back into the ocean of awareness that includes and perceives the changing waves. In this relaxing back, we realize the peace and freedom of inhabiting our wholeness and essence.

2024-05-29 Three Blessings in Spiritual Life – Part 3: A Mirror 57:51
Tara Brach
This 3- part series explores three capacities we all have, that when cultivated, bring spiritual awakening and serve the healing of our world. Drawing on an ancient teaching story from India, we explore together the power of a forgiving heart, the inner fire that expresses as courage and dedication, and the inquiry of “who am I” that reveals our deepest nature. The three qualities often described as the essence of awareness: wakeful, open, tender.”

Ajahn Sucitto
Q1 You mentioned vedana as the knowing of a feeling tone. I always thought that vedana occurs very fast and almost unconsciously How could one practice or investigate vedana a more deeply? 23:51 Q2 What is conscience from the Buddhist point of view? 28:21 Q3 How come the mind prefers to get involved with negative instead of positive stuff? 30:31 Q4 What actually do we need a mind for? In another words is there a quick and easy way to distinguish useful and harmful thinking? 40:24 Q5 Where do you see similarities and differences between dhamma practice and positive neuroplasticity? How can we cultivate more joy? 37:01 Q6 If I don't proceed according to the map, then how do I know if I'm doing something wrong or whether it just takes time? 54:16 Q7 Is it easier to stay grounded when speaking to others? It seems easier to say grounded when not speaking to others.
