This week’s topic is “Hasten, Slowly”

 

The Buddha replied to “How did you cross the flood (of samsara)?” by neither pushing forwards, nor staying still. Milarepa recommended us to “Hasten, Slowly”. These seeming paradoxes are not meant to be clever or to freeze our brains, but instructively reveal the subtle middle-way hidden in plain sight.

    Daily Meditation Recordings, with Ayala Gill – Week of 04 November, 2024

    This week’s theme is: Love’s Fullness

    Mindfulness is a practice of remaining present, open and loving to the deepest truth of this moment as it arises and dissolves. It invites us into an intimate, warm and embodied relationship with life, where each moment is sensed, felt and known with love. The four foundations of mindfulness return us to love’s fullness.

    Of Two Minds: The Mind of the Body, the Mind of the Mind

    Daily Meditation Recordings, with Ulla Koenig – Week of April 8, 2024

    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.
