2022-03-03 Loving-kindness for a good friend (Retreat at Spirit Rock) 43:53
Diana Clark
With metta practice we start where it's easy and expand the loving-kindness to more and more beings. In this session, we begin with the easy being, then expand to include oneself and then a good friend. Focusing on our intention for cultivating loving-kindness, rather than on having any particular experiences, supports the transformative power of this practice.

2022-03-01 The Frame Around Insight Meditation (Retreat at Spirit Rock) 62:52
Winnie Nazarko
This talk was offered at a month long insight meditation retreat, where most of the day is devoted to sitting and walking practice. The discussion acknowledges and explicitly points out the larger framework within which these meditations are done. It briefly reviews the 4 Noble Truths and the 8 Fold Path, especially focusing on Mundane Wise View and Wise Intention. These place in context, and inform, why and how these practices support the heart/mind in finding release.
