One thought on “Daily Meditation Recordings, with Martin Aylward – Week of 06 October, 2025

  1. Bodhisattva vows we where chanting on Wednesday – I understood the English, could you post the words of the mantra, please?
    Countless are living beings
    I vow to row them all to the further shore
    Countless are teachings
    I vow to understand them all
    Countless are the poisons
    I vow to purify them all
    Countless are the blessings
    I vow to bow my heart to them all
    And though the road is endless
    I vow to walk it to the very end
    yes, though the road is endless
    I vow to walk it to the very end

    Practice and Prejudice: Waking up to our reality blinkers

    Martin writes: “Do you remember that Youtube video ‘Awareness test’ from a few years ago, where you’re asked to pay attention to one thing (passes made by the team in white) and you end up completely missing something else? (check it out https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ahg6qcgoay4 – it only takes 30 seconds) We perceive reality in accordance with…

To give what we haven’t been able to give. To love what…
