Gratitude Practice: "It Would Have Been Enough"

This talk takes a dive into Gratitude as a way to hold suffering. The Jewish holiday of Passover began on Saturday. Passover is a holiday of liberation. One of the most joyous parts of the holiday is singing the song Dayenu, which translates as "It would have been enough." The song's lyrics list one blessing after another, 15 in all. After each verse the refrain is "if that was all, it would have been enough. But then there was this (next blessing)."
When we look at our lives through this lens it gives us inspiration to see and appreciate all the good in our lives as we process all that is challenging.

Wisdom in Action: Mindfulness and Sampajanna on the Path to Liberation

This dharma talk explores how mindfulness (sati) functions as a "charioteer" guiding spiritual faculties, with special focus on sampajanna (clear knowing) and its four aspects: intention, suitability, domain, and non-delusion. Through stories and examples, devon illustrates how developing these qualities leads to wisdom that responds appropriately in each moment, supporting liberation from suffering.
