Here we are in the change of seasons—the great turning. The sun is something for us to pay attention to, something we often take for granted. Notice the way the gift of sunlight streams behind everything—it feeds the plants we eat. We can be grateful for sunlight and trees, for people we love, for moments of goodness, and for the breath within our breast. And as our gratitude grows, we may discover a happiness without cause.

Stop Running and Your Real Home Appears
56:31

|
Ajahn Sucitto

The tendency to keep running out into concepts eventually results in overload, insecurity, anxiety, collapse. We’re desperately looking for sanity. The steadiness and fulfillment we seek is already here, in the non-conceptual intelligence of body and heart. Rather than going out, return to where body, mind and heart energy come together. In this presence our real home appears.

Dhp 256 157 Judgmental v Judicious

Bhante Bodhidhamma

These two verses are about the process of judging. It is something we are doing all the time whether of people, political parties, other countries and so on. So it is as well to remnd ourselves how we come to a just and correct judgements especially with all the fake news about. I made a mistake at the end quoting the Pali Dhammassa gutto which means Protector of the Dhamma/Law. I ought to have quoted Dhammattho, Standing in the Dhamma - Righteous.

Impermanence (talk only)

Impermanence: a cornerstone of dharma teachings and a place to live from and come back to no matter where we are in our practice. Impermanence can bring us into contraction or expansiveness. It ultimately points to our own impermanence, and what we need to wake up to before we die.
