This week’s topic is The Freedom of an Unassuming Mind.

 

The Buddha used the image of a tangled and knotted thread to represent the complex roots of human suffering and distress. It takes sensitivity, persistence, and care to disentangle the tangle of ‘dukkha’. A tricky part of this is that our assumptions about the world radically shape the way the world appears, while remaining quite hidden to us. Fortunately, wisdom teachings and practices bring assumptions into view and support the untying of these unseen knots, opening us into a wide and free existence.

Often, fear arises in the very moment that our awareness practices are bringing us closer to a direct experience of who we authentically are. For this reason, in…

    Daily Meditation Recordings, with Jaya Rudgard – Week of 19 October, 2026

    This week’s theme is: Verses for the Day: Practising with the Dhammapāda . The Dhammapāda is one of the most ancient and best loved texts in the Buddhist tradition: a collection of verses that have been memorised and recited since the time of the earliest practitioners. Daily sessions this week will each centre on a particular stanza or group of stanzas from this timeless teaching. These will be our inspiration for reflection and meditation and a companion, if we wish, for the remainder of the day. Our Dharma Library thrives through collective generosity.

    Daily Meditation Recordings, with Shireen Jilla – Week of 10 March, 2025

    We’re delighted to have Shireen Jilla guiding our Daily Meditation sessions this week. May her teachings support and enrich your practice.

    This week’s theme is: The Ease And Simplicity Of Letting Go

    The invitation this week is to explore Wise Intention. When we lean into letting go, we experience the simple clarity it brings. Every moment we drop fussing, fretting and freaking out over our experience deepens our practice in our daily lives. The intention of opening our hearts and harmlessness leads us beautifully towards the bliss of blamelessness.

We will explore ways to…
