2018-03-01 Guided meditation - Wholesome movements from the heart 16:46
Ajahn Sucitto
(10 m silence) Intentions move from the heart out into the world. Greed moves from the heart and reaches out; hatred moves from the heart and fights with things. We can us the brahmavihāras to cultivate wholesome movements from the heart that offer, nourish, protect and uplift. This will keep our energy clean and clear of disturbance.

2018-02-28 Meditation: The Space and Aliveness of Presence 21:54
Tara Brach
We arrive in presence by deepening attention in the body; relaxing and awakening through a body scan. That presence deepens as we bring our attention to the space of awareness that includes the changing flow of sounds, sensations and feelings. In that wholeness of formlessness and form, we discover our natural being - open, awake and tender.

2018-02-27 Q&A differentiation and discernment, tension, goodwill 46:30
Ajahn Sucitto
Questions are paraphrased: 1. Given the stressfulness of differentiation, is choosing what kind of meditation to practice stressful? 2. (11:30) Is the undifferentiated, the signlessness – the same as emptiness? 3. (24:02) Could you repeat what you were saying about relaxing tense muscles 4. (37:25) What does it mean to imbue the heart with loving kindness, “likewise the second, likewise the third and likewise the fourth”? What is the all encompassing world…?

2018-02-27 Careful Non-differentiation 57:52
Ajahn Sucitto
The process of meditation is one of reducing differentiation/proliferation, the movements of the mind towards the pleasant and away from the unpleasant. The body doesn’t proliferate and so can help calm the mind.

2018-02-26 Instruction - conscious attention 20:15
Ajahn Sucitto
Attention is a constant thing, so if you don’t place it, it will find its own place, and it will generally place itself into suffering – what could be, should be, things we can’t quite manage. Place it somewhere useful, starting with the body. This is the foundation. [10:03 instructions on breathing and breath energy] With good clear breath energy, mind can establish mindfulness. Careful attention prepares the ground so there’s something suitable to be mindful of. [20:10 begin silent sitting meditation]
