2019-04-24 Meditation: Awakening Our Energy Body 19:49
Tara Brach
This meditation scans the body and directly invites the awakening of key energy centers (chakras) in our body. We then rest in the openhearted awareness that includes this ever changing creative flow of aliveness. We close with a prayer of loving kindness. "No matter how often the mind drifts, all that really matters is the quality of heart in the way you come back… to come back with interest and friendliness to this moment, then you plant those seeds for whatever else arises."

2019-04-24 Equanimity: A Heart That is Ready for Anything (Duck Meditation) 50:28
Tara Brach
Equanimity is the quality of presence that is open, balanced and non-reactive. As this talk explores, when equanimity is lacking, we become easily lost in trance, identified as a defended and controlling egoic self. When present, the solidity and constriction of egoic self dissolves, and our heart is free to respond to life with love, compassion, forgiveness and joy. Note: this talk is a favorite from the 2014 archives and includes the “Duck Meditation” and bricklayer stories.

2019-04-22 The Face of Holiness 31:28
Ayya Medhanandi
Through the lens of Truth, mindful and attentive, we pierce anger, sorrow, fear and complacency. We are on the cusp of realizing who we are. Clear present awareness leads us inwards. We are on track to let go, relinquish and abandon all that is harmful. Discarding ancient beliefs one after another with microscopic insight, we empty out the rubbish from the mind. Radical awareness directly knows the impersonal, imperfect and empty nature of all that we experience. Now we see the face of holiness. Giving our hearts to truth, we are set free.

2019-04-21 Vertrauen als Kraft und Fähigkeit entwickeln 43:42
Renate Seifarth
Vertrauen ist eine der fünf Fähigkeiten und Kräfte, die wir für die Praxis brauchen. Anfangs vertrauen wir weitgehend blind, doch im Laufe der Zeit entwickelt sich ein Vertrauen, das auf Erfahrung basiert. Aber Vertrauen ist auch eine Fähigkeit, die wir für in nahen Beziehungen und im zwischenmenschlichen Bereich täglich brauchen. Gerade hier ist unser Vertrauen häufig enttäuscht oder gar missbraucht worden. Wie können wir die Fähigkeit des Vertrauens wieder entdecken?
