Daily Meditation Recordings, with Christopher Titmuss – Week of 09 December, 2024

Christopher Titmuss

We’re delighted to have Christopher Titmuss guiding our Daily Meditation sessions this week. May they support and deepen your practice.

This week’s theme is: Liberation Of The Heart

Join Christopher Titmuss for a week exploring the Brahma Viharas – the Immeasurable Ways of Being.

The Brahma Viharas, traditionally known as Divine Abidings, point to something boundless in our human experience. While Brahma literally means “God,” its deeper root meaning is “Immeasurable.” The Buddha taught four specific ways to dwell in this immeasurable space: through radical love, compassion, appreciative joy, and equanimity.

Over five morning sessions, Christopher will offer an overview of these teachings and explore each of these profound ways of abiding. By radical, we mean getting to the very root of what matters most.

Whether you come with an open heart or a closed one, whether you’re new to meditation or a seasoned practitioner – all are welcome to join these transformative sessions.

Our Dharma Library thrives through collective generosity. Your donation helps sustain this offering for our entire community.

Abiding with God/Abiding with the Immeasurable.

One thought on “Daily Meditation Recordings, with Christopher Titmuss – Week of 09 December, 2024

  1. I very much appreciate Christopher’s guided meditations and teachings. I think I have a tendency of trying to be precise with meditation instructions and consequently get constricted. This did not occur with these guided meditations. I experienced a taste of the stillness.
