2016-11-17 What Will Heal Us 22:49
Ayya Medhanandi
Discover the riches of the Noble Eightfold Path again and again. See into the depths of the mind by rightly remembering and using the Buddha's guidance not only in formal meditation practice but in every waking hour of daily life. Begin, sustain, and deepen the practice of clear seeing and understanding the Path. This is how we step out of suffering into true blessing and joyous freedom.

2016-08-09 First Night of Retreat - Why and How We Practice 64:19
Tempel Smith
After twenty-four hours on a silent residential retreat we can already see the patterns of daily life being exposed. Too often we are lost and dominated by thought. Mindfulness practice allows us to see thought as transient experiences.

2016-07-28 Refrain from False Speech 29:28
Shaila Catherine
Shaila Catherine gave the fourth talk in a six-week series titled "Ethics, Action and the Five Precepts." Speech is given particular importance in the Buddhist path because wrong speech can cause tremendous harm, and right speech can be profoundly beneficial. Practicing right speech is given emphasis because it's a very vivid way of applying our practice to daily life. When we lie based on delusion and greed, our intention usually is to benefit ourselves. When we lie based on delusion and hatred, our intention is usually to harm others. Even when we lie to cause less harm than would be caused if we spoke the truth, we should be aware of the potential karmic consequences.

2016-05-29 Daily life-entering the field of kamma 33:26
Ajahn Sucitto
Kamma is both inherited & new. We meet the familiar kammic patterns and programs in the heart, get to their essence in the body, release them in awareness. Guidance on new, fresh kamma then arises with heedfulness and spiritual potency.
