Akincano Marc Weber	Download Listen
Body as a construct. On touch (phassa) and touching and being touched (phusati). Differing senses create a different relationship - 'seeing', 'hearing' and 'touching' as analogies for attending to something create a different kind of relationship to ourselves. The visual is overdetermined, often at the expense of touch. Feeling the body as an experience of touch rather than being 'observed'.'.

Ajahn Sucitto	Download Listen
Having achieved some calm, where do we go from there? Seeking experience is a matter for the measuring mind. This mind doesn’t experience fulfilment. Attuning to the heart, there is access to the richness of a generosity and a virtue that doesn’t need a point. It is innately enjoyable and frees us from measurement.

Nathan Glyde	Download Listen
An Online Dharma Hall session includes a Guided Meditation, a Dharma Talk, and responses to unrecorded questions. A three-part series examining the role of passion, compassion, and dispassion on the Buddha's path to peace. This week, the disentangling release that comes from renunciation of paths that promise a happiness but don't deliver. What we can learn from compassionate engagement or the refined happiness of an unhindered heart-mind. And how they open the heart and mind to support us to let go of narrow (fiery, lustful) passions for a grander freedom (of meaningful purpose).
