Dharma Talks in English
2011-01-05 True Refuge: Three Gateways to Freedom 1:26:34
Tara Brach
This talk invites a contemplation of three archetypal domains of spiritual awakening: Buddha-awareness, Dharma- truth (the way things are), and Sangha-loving relatedness. We explore our habit of turning toward false refuges, and the way we can find refuge in that which truely heals our hearts and frees our mind. The evening ends with a living ritual of dedicating ourselves to each of these three gateways to awakening.

2011-01-03 Mindfulness When It Matters 61:40
Sally Armstrong
Rather than making New Year’s resolutions that often end in a sense of failure, it is more helpful to look at our life and practice in terms of aspirations, and to ask what do we need to cultivate and what can we let go of in order to support those aspirations? Using mindfulness, we can become more in tune with what really matters to us and also begin to notice the many subtle and even unconscious influences on our choices and behavior.
