Resting in Receptivity – Opening Up to What Liberates

With Nirmala Werner recorded on September 18, 2022.

Found our teachings useful? Help us continue our work and support your teachers with a donation. Here’s how.

This session is an embodied, compassionate exploration through our body-mind-heart into life.

The door is open. What we long for is already there. This practise invites you to undo and deeply rest into the wonder of an receptive presence.

BY LAL DED, TRANSLATED BY JANE HIRSHFIELD:
I was passionate,
filled with longing,
I searched
far and wide.

But the day
that the Truthful One
found me,
I was at home.

    Daily Meditation Recordings, with Christine Kupfer – Week of 30 June, 2025

    We’re grateful to have Christine Kupfer guiding our Daily Meditation sessions this week. May they support and enrich your practice.

    This week’s theme is: Meditating on the Five Elements : A Journey into Interconnectedness

    This week, we explore how the classical elements – earth, water, fire, air and space – invite a meeting between our inner landscape and the living world.

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