Emptiness: Surmounting the Limitations of the Intellect
Recorded :
February 11, 2024 The Suttas, Sutras and Shastras tell us that we can dislodge and extinguish what the deluded mind has created. There is a common thread through them all… we should realize the emptiness of all conditioned phenomenon. Let’s step into this discussion together to look deeper into the mind that realizes emptiness as the gateway to…

Daily Meditation Recordings, with James Rafael – Week of April 24, 2023
This week’s topic is “Fluidity and Flux: Gateways to a Kinder, More Inclusive World”. The Buddha’s teachings on impermanence and compassion offer us gateways to cultivate a kinder, more inclusive world for all. Impermanence connects us to a sense of fluidity and flux, where we can see through the illusion of solid binaries and fixed identities. This can inspire us toward action that includes, appreciates and holds others with kindness.
Thanks to Kevin & Sangha Live for this experience. I will look forward to Kevin returning & very much enjoy the variety of perspectives on to the Dharma that Sanga Lives makes available to us all.
On the mistake concerning advertising of the wrong scheduled time, it would be pompous of me to declare the truth that we all make mistakes as if informing the ignorant, but I did want to add that in some small way as a member of this Sangha I feel I own a small share of the error. I saw the advertised time well in advance, noted the two hour difference from the usual, wondered what the reason might be, but didn’t bother to seek clarification or question if it might be mistaken, imagining I might be perceived as a fool or a nuisance, all self created perceptions. I fell into a familiar habit of treating my experience of reality with passivity, like a consumer of entertainment, wishing to fulfill my desires to consume but not be noticed in my consumption. Perhaps there’s a lesson in this for me. Thank you.
