2021-01-01 The Wholesome Womb of Attention: Yoniso Manasikara 57:46
Susie Harrington
Fundamental to our experience is where our attention lands. Our attention can be run by habit and conditions or, with practice and the training of the mind, we can make choices about what and how we pay attention. This choice, and what unfolds as a result, can make all the difference. Wise Intention is Part 2 of this two talk series.

2020-12-29 Correcting the Foundations - Full Moon Lunar Observance 54:39
Ajahn Sucitto
Citta is confused. It has taken the wrong baseline and lost its foundation in itself – its own clarity, purity, knowing. Direct experience is the way back. Touching into qualities that strengthen and uplift citta, feeling the effects, and listening. Citta is freed from false baselines and settles in itself.

We are happy to announce a special opportunity to practice the 32 Parts of the Body meditation, which is rarely taught in the West. This practice deepens insight into impermanence and non-self by penetrating into the true nature and wonders of the body. We will also explore how the body interrelates with the four primary elements of earth (solidity), air (motion), fire (temperature), and water (liquidity). This methodical practice of the 32 Parts of the Body Meditation can build immense levels of concentration, potentialities for healing, and experience the taste of deep freedom and peace. This is the 15th year of offering this class at Insight Santa Cruz and it has been truly wonderful. People have frequently reported developing a whole new relationship to their bodies with greater wisdom and compassion. We will also be hopefully doing a tour of the Cabrillo Anatomy lab to get a deeper experience of the body.
