Transcendence Includes It All

Ajahn Sucitto

The process of liberation is sometimes referred to as ‘transcendence’. Transcendence means you meet feeling, and mind gets bigger than that, includes it all. It is a natural mode of the mind, to meet and include. Enlightenment factors enable this stepping back and non-involvement. We can then meet the results of kamma and realize liberation.

Knowing Through Dispassion
37:24
|
Ajahn Sucitto
|
|
Mindfulness offers the ability to sustain, to notice, and therefore to be wise. Through this we can experience feelings that arise as energy in the body. Stepping back, there is a shift from being in these to a knowingness of them, with resultant dispassion. This is the liberating process of insight.

Humble Of Heart
1:11:49
|
Tara Brach
|
|
As consciousness evolves, there is a deepening understanding of the interdependence of all of life. This wisdom naturally leads to an authentic humility--an awakening from the burden and violence of self-importance. In this talk we explore the relationship between being humble of heart, and living with kindness and compassion. There is particular attention to the necessity of humility and deep listening--as individuals and societies--if we are to respond to conflict in a way that can bring peace to this earth.
