Day 3 - Meditation Instructions - Open Palm Attention
51:56
|
|
Nathan Glyde
|
|
|
Expanding the world through skilful wholesome modes of relating. When there is an object in attention there is always some degree of push or pull happening. The contraction is what holds attention there. It is not something we’re doing wrong, it is the nature of experience. What happens when we invite an opening in the contraction, either in the body sense, or the sense of awareness, or by bringing in a bit more metta in the atmosphere of attending?

Metta Undefined

Nathan Glyde
|
|
|
Letting metta be expansive, unconstrained, vaster than vast, beyond boundaries, so that it can fabricate more and more well-being. Metta is an expression and experience of non-dukkha, it is a skilful delightful way of relating that brings wellbeing, it is a compass for practice, and it is so much more too.

Opening Talk - Metta and Emptiness
39:19
|
|
Nathan Glyde
|
|
|
Introducing the main concept of this retreat: sankhara-fabrication. In particular the insight that experience is 'made up' from an object in attention and an atmosphere of attention. The latter we could call the way of relating, or way of looking (as Rob Burbea teaches it). We can pay attention to different objects, and that affects expereince. We can also develop ('bhavana' = cultivate) other atmospheres or modes of attending.

A guided meditation offering mettā (well-wishing) towards those working the frontlines of health care and social care, those whose bodies are affected by the virus or disease themselves, and those taking precautions (like being in isolation). Opening our hearts and minds to all those affected, and beyond to all beings everywhere, can help reduce our stress and allow us to be more available to support.
Includes a brief introduction: skip first 3 mins to get to the beginning of guided meditation. May all beings be cared for and well in heart-mind and body.

Metta leben - Mettapraxis im Alltag
47:02

Yuka Nakamura

Im Alltag bieten sich unzählige Gelegenheiten um Metta, die Qualität der Freundlichkeit und des Wohlwollens, zu üben und zu manifestieren. Dazu gehören Gesten der Grosszügigkeit, ethisches Handeln, Freundlichkeit in unseren Worten etc. Letzlich lässt uns Metta die Nicht-Getrenntheit von allen Wesen erkennen und entsprechend handeln.

The Transformative Power of Metta Practice (Retreat at Spirit Rock)
56:21
|
|
Donald Rothberg
|
|
|
Guided by a recent translation of a poem about metta practice by an early Buddhist nun, from The First Free Women, we contemplate the simple yet radical and profound spirit of metta practice. The author tells us: "I have followed this Path of friendship to its end. And I can say with absolute certainty—it will lead you home.” We look at how metta cuts through fear, how it deepens concentration, how we work with the challenges of metta practice, how we navigate the “purification process” linked with metta practice, and how we integrate the kind heart, mindfulness, wisdom, and skillful action.

Mettapraxis im Alltag
54:43

|
Yuka Nakamura
|
|
|
Unser Alltagsleben ist nicht nur Ausdruck von Metta, welches wir in der Meditation kultiviert haben, sondern auch ein grosses Praxisfeld. Metta kann im Alltag kultiviert werden in Form von Grosszügigkeit, ethischem Verhalten, freundlicher Kommunikation, aber auch durch die Art, wie wir uns selbst und die Welt betrachten - nämlich mit einem Blick für das, was gut ist und mit der Einsicht in unsere Verbundenheit mit allen Wesen.
