2001-04-23 No 'me', No 'i', No 'mine': Liberation In Not Clinging 65:16
Marcia Rose
The essential aim of the Buddha's teaching is toward the understanding that comes through our own direct experience; that there is no person who is a 'self' and no thing- nothing- that is a separate self.
Mabel Dodge, Taos

2001-04-22 Suffering: Its Cause And Its End 1:16:57

Through deep understanding, we can find the end of the restlessness of constant craving and resistance; the end of suffering.

2001-04-21 The Gateway To Relief 1:13:49
Marcia Rose
Change is the fabric of life; its very essence. How often do we forget, ignore, or distract ourselves from this natural truth and then suffer the consequences? Clearly seeing and accepting impermanence is truly the acceptance of life.

2001-04-20 Come See For Yourself: The Power And Presence Of Concentration And Mindfulness 60:00
Marcia Rose
This practice is a path of inquiry, investigation and discovery that we fully participate in and experience for ourselves. By the power of our own attention-mindful awareness, with great interest and energy, we develop a concentrated clarity of presence, taking the time to look very deeply at our own experience of body, mind and heart. Through this process we are able to see and experience the nature of things. This is what leads to the deepest wisdom and happiness. This is what leads to awakening/liberation..
Mabel Dodge, Taos

Learning to be with whatever appears in our sitting practice is excellent training for the changing and uncertain conditions of daily life.

2001-04-18 Holding Hands 30:10
Sylvia Boorstein
In thinking about the path of awareness and the refining of the heart that is the purpose of Buddhist philosophy, Sylvia suggests that she would like to amend the Eightfold Path to be the "Ninefold Path," adding Right Relationship as the ninthfold. Right Relationship is the sense of connection we feel in the world that holds us up. Hand holding is the metaphor Sylvia uses to symbolize this connection. Hands take us from the womb, and they put us in the grave. In between, it is one big "hand holding."
