(retreat talk) We can only find love and peace in this life if we are able to hold our inner life with compassion. This talk explores the subtle and therefore often unseen ways that we turn on ourselves, and the pathways to a forgiving heart.
Mindfulness is the key to the entire path of practice. We explore the entire universe and plumb the depths of what it means to be human by bring mindfulness to our present moment experience.
