2024-09-20 Citta als Absicht und Gestaltungskraft unseres Lebens. 60:47
Yuka Nakamura
Citta - unser Herzgeist - hat neben seiner empfindsamen, rezeptiven Seite auch eine aktive, gestaltende Seite. Jede Absicht, die wir formen und in Gedanken, Worten oder Taten umsetzen, hat eine Wirkung und trägt zu unserem Glück oder Leiden bei. Von entscheidender Bedeutung ist, dass wir lernen, zwischen heilsamen und unheilsamen Absichten zu unterscheiden und bewusst die heilsamen Absichten und Geisteszustände zu kultivieren. Geistesschulung bedeutet, dass wir unheilsame Gewohnheitstendenzen nicht weiter füttern und stattdessen heilsame Tendenzen stärken. Dadurch formen wir uns selbst und unser Leben.

2024-09-20 Leave Your Shoes at the Door 18:04
Ayya Medhanandi
Let faith be our foundation for a mindfulness that never tires of examining how we are within us. We may eat well, dress well, and look good but what is the real state of the mind? Day by day, finding safety in virtue, aware of the right qualities that direct, protect, and teach us to root out unworthy habits, let us harvest the profound joy and goodness of this life. It’s not how much we work or gain but how well we honour the noble Dhamma as servants of selflessness and human kindness.
