2024-10-03 Weisheit und Mitgefühl – Teil 2 47:34
Renate Seifarth
Mitgefühl mit unbekannten Personen fordert die Fähigkeit mich mit ihnen zu verbinden und unsere Ähnlichkeit als fühlendes Wesen zu spüren. Durch entsprechende Reflexionen können wir dies in uns lebendig werden lassen. Im Dhamma reflektieren wir über unseren existenziellen Bogen von Geburt über Kränkeln, Altern und Sterben oder darüber, dass wir ähnliche Wünsche und Ängste teilen. Mitgefühl mit schwierigen Personen oder Feinden wiederum braucht die tiefe Einsicht, dass Hass und Grausamkeit als Reaktionen uns selber schaden. In unserer Praxis nähren wir die Entschlossenheit diese beiden Geistesgifte zu überwinden.

2024-10-02 Meditation: Embodying Acceptance and Care 15:33
Tara Brach
This guided meditation helps us cultivate a friendly relationship with our experience. Using the image of a smile, we bring a gentle presence alive in our bodies, and then open to the heartspace that includes all facets of life. The meditation closes with a verse from poet, Dorothy Hunt, “Peace is this Moment Without Judgment.”

2024-10-02 The Courage to Say Yes – A Conversation with Tara and poet, Rosemerry Wahtola Trommer 62:23
Tara Brach
I ran across acclaimed poet, Rosemerry Trommer, several years ago in a volume where she shares about the loss of her son, Finn, who took his life at age 16. I had never read anything on grieving that touched me so deeply, that held so much wisdom, such a deep affirmation of love. I went on to read her collection All the Honey, and now her new one, The Unfolding. These books are filled with Post-its: I didn’t realize how much I needed Rosemerry’s words to remind me of what most matters. In our interview, we talk about the key themes in her poems: grief, love, opening to what’s difficult and what’s beautiful… saying yes to life. The Unfolding, by Rosemerry Wahtola Tromer, will help you remember the loving that most matters, and to say Yes to this precious life. This is a wonderful gift to your own spirit, and for dear ones in your life! Order Rosemerry’s books, here!
