Rechte Absicht
60:51
|
Yuka Nakamura
|
|
Der Buddha betonte die Absicht als Schlüssel zu Glück und Frieden. Oft sind wir uns jedoch der Absichten, die hinter unseren Entscheidungen und Handlungen stehen, nicht bewusst. Basierend auf der Dvedhāvitakka Sutta diskutiert der Vortrag die unheilsamen Absichten von sinnlichem Verlangen, Übelwollen und Grausamkeit und die heilsamen Absichten von Entsagung, liebender Güte und Mitgefühl. Er geht auch darauf ein, wie wir den Geist schulen und transformieren können.

Die Kraft heilsamer Absichten
53:46
|
Yuka Nakamura
|
|
Im Buddhadharma bezieht sich Karma auf die Absicht, die hinter einer Handlung steht. Sie ist es, die wirksam ist. Der Buddha betonte die Wichtigkeit, unsere Absichten vor, während und nach dem Handeln, Sprechen und Denken stets zu prüfen. Der Vortrag geht auch auf den geschickten Umgang mit Fehlhandlungen ein und die Möglichkeit, sich immer wieder neu auszurichten.

Practicing with Conflict 3
64:20
|
Donald Rothberg
|
|
We review what we’ve explored so far about practicing with conflict, including our conditioning and stereotypes about conflict (typically with views of conflict as negative), ways to bring our meditation practice into working with the “inner” states (emotions, thoughts, bodily states) that arise with conflict, and the “both-and” or “win-win” perspective on approaching conflict. We then bring in a further important resource—empathic understanding of another—outlining a simple way to “practice” empathy. We then work with an exercise bringing empathy to someone with whom one is in conflict. Then we discuss all of this.

Befriending Irene

Tara Brach

|
While Tara is away, this talk is from 2011 after Hurricane Irene hit us with fury. Dorian is now leaving its destruction behind, just as we work with our stormy weather within.
Whether you face chronic anxiety or more violent storms of fear and anger, you can cultivate the wings of freedom–the mindfulness and compassion–that free you. This talk explores how the habit of being reactive causes us suffering and the ways these tools of meditation can be applied to the inner weather systems that most challenge us.

Meditation: The Blessings of Love
11:17
|
Tara Brach
|
|
A blessing is whatever reminds us of the sacred loving presence that shines through all of us. This meditation is a transformational practice in receiving and offering blessings. First we connect with the vulnerable tender place within us that longs to feel loved, and call on loving presence to bless us. By imagining and allowing ourselves to receive love, our hearts become open and filled with light. We then bring that inner loving presence fully alive as we offer blessings to other beings. The image of receiving a kiss on the brow, and offering one, is suggested as a powerful channel for the blessings that awaken our heart.
