This is the main track of lama rod dharma talk. During this talk, after thirty two minutes, an approx. 25 minutes guided meditation practice took place. the guided practice was extracted and was made a standalone track which you can access as well. A short small bell sound was inserted to mark the point in which the talk was paused. It then continues seamlessly. However, after the guided meditation, a five minute break in which sangha members were offered to submit written questions, and it is that which lama rod refers to after the short bell sound.

Cultivating Wise Speech 2
2:06:45
|
Donald Rothberg
|
|
Description:We review first why speech practice is so important and how it connects with the Noble Eightfold Path, and then two of the foundations of skillful or wise (or right) speech. We cover: (1) working with the four guidelines from the Buddha for wise speech, and how we can use the guidelines both to guide our speech and as spurs for mindfulness, when we find ourselves going against the guidelines; and (2) developing a sense of presence during speaking and listening. We then explore some general ways to strengthen our speech practice, as well as begin to bring it into challenging or difficult situations involving speech and interaction. We end with a speech exercise involving dyads, and discussion of the exercise and our practice generally.
