2023-10-18 Practicing with Conflict: Foundations 1 66:41
Donald Rothberg
We begin by identifying the importance of developing skillful practice with differences and conflicts, whether inner conflicts or interpersonal conflicts or group or organizational conflicts or social or international conflicts. The claim is that the general principles and practices are fundamentally the same, even as the practices take different forms when there are more complexities. We first give a definition of "conflict" as a difference of values, goals, or strategies, and as not necessarily involving hostility or aggression. This definition may help to go against the prevalence of negative conditioning about conflicts; we look at a number of reasons why bringing our practice to conflicts is commonly difficult. For the rest of the talk, we examine four more "inner" foundations of skillful practice with conflict: examining our own conditioning; working with the core relevant teachings of the Buddha, particularly about the nature of reactivity (as in the teaching of the Two Arrows); practicing with difficult emotions, body states, and thoughts; and bringing in the heart practices. After the talk, there is a discussion.

2023-10-17 Leerheit - eine Annäherung (Schweizerdeutsch) 59:07
Yuka Nakamura
Leerheit ist einer der wichtigsten, aber auch tiefgründigsten Begriffe im Buddhismus, denn die Einsicht in die Leerheit aller Phänomene befreit den Geist von Anhaftung und Ablehnung. Einfach zu sehen ist die Leerheit sozialer Konventionen. Traditionell wird Leerheit im Sinne der Abhängigkeit von Teilen und der Abhängigkeit von Bedingungen kontempliert.Die Einsicht in die Leerheit zeigt uns einen Mittelweg zwischen den Extremen von Nihilismus und Ewigkeitsglaube auf.

2023-10-16 Mudita - Die wertschätzende Freude (Schweizerdeutsch) 58:12
Yuka Nakamura
Mudita - das dritte der vier Brahmaviharas - wird als Mitfreude, wertschätzende oder selbstlose Freude bezeichnet. Sie ist die Herzensqualität, die das Gute, das Schöne, das Glück wertschätzt - in unserem eigenen Leben und bei anderen. Unser Leben ist reich an Anlässen für Mudita - seien es unsere Lebensumstände, die Schönheit der Natur, ethische, heilsame Handlungen und die Tatsache, dass wir dem Dharma begegnet sind und ihn praktizieren.

2023-10-15 What Is The Solution? 25:48
Ayya Medhanandi
The Buddha said it simply. The awakened mind is the best solution. The mind-heart needs happiness to be well and to extend that well-being to others. So we tune inward, listen, meditate and resolve the dis-ease. We teach ourselves to be resilient, joyful and discerning rather than feeding on delusion and misery. When the loss is too great or madness reigns everywhere, we pour benevolent ingredients into awareness itself, patiently practising this way. Then we radiate true compassion, true forgiveness and true peace in all directions.

2023-10-14 Citta und der Umgang mit Emotionen 60:13
Yuka Nakamura
Unser Herzgeist - Citta - und seine Zustände sind der Bereich des dritten Satipatthana. Wir üben uns darin, achtsam auf die ganze Welt der Emotionen, Stimmungen, Impulse, Gedanken zu sein. Wie gelingt dies, ohne sich in Emotionen zu verlieren und ohne sie zu verdrängen? Durch diese Praxis gelangen wir zur Einsicht, dass alle diese psychischen Zustände vergänglich und unpersönlich sind.

2023-10-14 Upekkha - Abiding in Equanimity 37:17
Devon Hase
Teaching and guided meditation on the practice of equanimity. From Ruth King: ”Equanimity can feel internally like a great mountain, with the mind solid and stable, undisturbed by the changing seasons. Or it can be like the ocean, with the mind vast, deep, and immeasurable, undisturbed by whatever swims, floats, or is housed in its waters. Equanimity can be like a strong fire — roaring, engulfing, and transmuting, undisturbed by whatever is thrown into it. Or like immense space — open, allowing, and receiving, undisturbed by the objects that arise and pass away”

Vedana - die Gefühlstönung jeder Erfahrung als angenehm, unangenehm oder weder-noch, hat einen grossen Einfluss auf unser Verhalten und ist oft der Auslöser von Reaktivität. Im Vortrag werden diese Prozesse auf der Basis der Lehrrede über den Pfeil (SN 36.6) besprochen und es wird darauf eingegangen, wie wir mit Vedana praktizieren können.

2023-10-11 Meditation: Living Presence – with Body Scan 12:05
Tara Brach
A key pathway to full presence is awakening through the body. This meditation guides us through a body scan, relaxing and receiving the play of sensations. We then deepen attention to the breath, and rest with the rhythmic waves of breathing, experiencing the background of the whole domain of physical aliveness.
