Dharma Talk: Stillness helps us to see patterns of the mind and heart so that we can work wisely with them. This talk explores how to meet unpleasant, pleasant, and neither strongly unpleasant or pleasant experiences with wisdom with the intention to support peace.
Morning Instruction and meditation: Seclusion, meditation and stillness are not about stopping thinking. These three help us to develop a wise relationship with thinking, which leads to peace. Please note, this instruction and guided meditation begins at 27:34, after an intro, refuges, and precepts.
This talk traces the insight sequence of knowledge and vision of how things are - disenchantment - dispassion - release in retreat and daily life experience, with the intention of exploring the release of clinging as an accessible and understandable process that we can work with intentionally.
