Muditā - Wertschätzende Freude
62:31
|
|
Yuka Nakamura
|
|
|
Muditā ist das dritte der vier Brahmavihāras, der himmlischen Verweilzustände. Sie ist die Fähigkeit, sich über das, was heilsam und gut ist zu freuen und es wertzuschätzen - bei sich selbst und bei anderen. Muditā hilft dem Geist, angesichts von Leiden und Herausforderungen im Gleichgewicht zu bleiben. Welche Faktoren stehen der Freude im Weg und wie können wir sie bewusst kultivieren?

The Importance of Cultivating Stillness
45:29
|
|
Tuere Sala
|
|
|
Stillness is an ever present phenomenon and yet it seems so elusive in urban (also referred to as householder or lay) practice. Within the context of contemporary society, cultivating stillness can seem self-indulgent. Our demanding can sometimes make it harder to recognize it, but stillness is part of the unconditional and thus, a necessary aspect of awakening. This talk will explore how urban practitioners can learn to cultivate stillness in the midst of movement and chaos.

What gives us the inner strength to meet life’s challenges with resilience, heart and wisdom? Drawing on themes in Lori’s new book, “The Tiny Buddha’s Inner Strength Journal,” Tara and Lori explore the mindset that is conducive to growth, working with negative beliefs, ways of transforming fear, and what it means to have inner strength in facing loss and death. We also talk about what can most empower and energize us in responding to a world struggling with multiple crises.
NOTE: Find Lori Deschene’s “The Tiny Buddha’s Inner Strength Journal” here: tinybuddha.com/strong. Lori also created several free companion resources, available at tinybuddha.com/strength-tools.

Our Dhamma Compass
23:09
|
|
Ayya Medhanandi
|
|
|
Strong in restraint, courageous in wisdom, we use the compass of right view to steer us on the Noble Eightfold Path, while right intention sustains the healing actions of mind that let go unwholesome thoughts and endless fabrications. We learn to live and respond to life compassionately, responsibly, mindfully, with integrity and noble presence of mind. Healing from above and below, from the outside and internally, we listen to the unspoken silence of the heart that resounds in the galaxies. Keenly aware, supremely blessed, we rejoice in the totality of unbounded compassion.

And Then Your Heart Will Shine
19:02
|
|
Ayya Medhanandi
|
|
|
How can we tread the path of nonviolence that rises above anger, blame, and mistrust? Try choosing compassion, kindness and forgiveness. For inner peace is nowhere to be found if not within your own heart. Even in the throes of tempestuous life situations, draw out courage from that as water from a deep well within. By the power of refuge in what upholds Truth, you navigate through the most fearsome obstacle even if it seems impossible. And then your heart will truly shine.
