    Daily Meditation Recordings, with Ulla Koenig – Week of 29 June, 2026

    This week’s theme is: Rejoicing in Integrity: Ethics Beyond Guilt and Shame . In this session we explore how an ethical life can be guided by hiri and ottappa – healthy self-respect and respect for others – rather than by guilt or shame.

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

    This week’s theme is “All Life is Practice”. In this week of exploring the four noble truths together, we will take a good look at the eightfold path and relate it to our own practice. Together we explore how all of our daily life can be seen as a part of a spiritual journey and heal the dualism between “practice” and “life”. May this week provide us with an inspiring expansion of what practice means for us.
