Daily Meditation Recordings, with Christopher Titmuss – Week of June 6, 2022
This week’s theme is: From Mindfulness to Clear Seeing. Clear seeing includes the past, present and future.

A timeless, limitless liberation embraces all three fields of time. Teachings this week will include the immense value and the limits of the here and now.
