Daily Meditation Recordings, with Nathan Glyde – Week of 03 March, 2025
We’re delighted to have Nathan Glyde guiding our Daily Meditation sessions this week. May they support and enrich your practice.
This week’s theme is: It’s Like This, Right Now
Acceptance must be applied wisely to lead to liberating awakening. We accept “it’s like this, right now”, but we don’t stop there. We also acknowledge that “this” is subject to changeable conditions, and we accept the opportunity to contribute to freedom.
Our Dharma Library thrives through collective generosity. Your donation helps sustain this offering for our entire community.

The dangers of selfie mindfulness.
Recorded :
March 13, 2016 There is a growing tendency to imply or assume that all suffering is self-created. This is a naïve, even dangerous, view, removed from the middle way. The view ignores the teachings of non-self and the emptiness of self. Does self-inquiry, self-acceptance, self-compassion, self-interest and promotion of the Self promote self-indulgence?
