Wise Acceptance and Wise Non-acceptance
1:27:19
|
|
Nathan Glyde
|
|
|
Getting to know our experience is so essential, and that is greatly deepened by accepting what has already arisen. But the Dharma is also about cultivation of beautiful, skilful, and wholesome qualities. And that also means abandoning unhelpful habitual ways of being and acting: wise non-acceptance is a part of wise and timely acceptance. This recording contains a guided meditation, Dharma reflection, and questions.

Bob Stahl
|
|
|
Please join us for this 8-week “32 Parts of the Body” meditation class that has rarely been taught in the West. This practice will cultivate deeper insight into the true nature of the body and most importantly to help see through the identifications, conditionings, beliefs, and narratives – the erroneous view of self. It has also been used for healing illness. Various methods will be taught to strengthen mindfulness of the body and to explore the mind/body connection. Each class will consist of silent and guided meditation, chanting of the body parts and small and large group discussion. These teachings and practices will help develop greater clarity, wisdom, and compassion; and foster the depth of practice.

Opening Our Hearts to Love—For Ourselves and For Others
51:11
|

Donald Rothberg,
Fresh Lev White
|
|
|
Just before this Valentine’s Day, we’ll explore, in meditation and a talk and discussion, what helps us to open our hearts to our deep loving nature, and what gets in the way of such opening. We’ll focus on how central it is, and often how hard it is, to be able to develop and express self-love and self-compassion. Yet these qualities are necessary for bringing love into our relationships and into our world, which deeply needs love and heart connections. We’ll identify perspectives and practices which help us to open our hearts to love!

A Wise and Kind Way of Seeing All Things as Unsatisfactory
1:26:10
|
|
Nathan Glyde
|
|
|
All changing and unreliable phenomena are neither satisfactory nor dissatisfactory. They neither contain the ingredients for contentment nor for distress. It is in the way of relating to them that the tangle of dukkha (distress) arises, or the openness of freedom, well-being, and happiness come to be. How much freedom might come from reminding ourselves that all things are both non-dissatisfactory and unsatisfactory?
Guided meditation and Dharma Reflection, followed by a Q&A.

A Guided Meditation in the Manner of Thich Nhat Hanh
36:47
|
|
Donald Rothberg
|
|
|
A 35-minute or so guided meditation in the manner of Thich Nhat Hanh (connected with the talk honoring Thich Nhat Hanh). The guided meditation is mostly silent, with three short periods of guidance, using these words:
(1) Breathing in, I know I am breathing in.
Breathing out, I know I am breathing out.
Breathing in, I calm myself.
Breathing out, I feel at ease.
(2) Breathing in, I calm body and mind. Breathing out, I smile. Dwelling in the present moment I know this is the only moment.
Bring body and mind back to the present moment. So that you do not miss the appointment with life.
(3) Breathing in, I see myself as a flower. Breathing out, I feel fresh.
Breathing in, I see myself as a mountain. Breathing out, I feel solid.
Breathing in, I see myself as still water. Breathing out, I reflect all that is.
Breathing in, I see myself as space. Breathing out, I feel free.
