A New Year's Day of Practice: Talk and Guided Visualization
31:07
|
|
Donald Rothberg
|
|
|
For "A New Year's Day of Practice: Resting and Re-Visioning," this talk in the afternoon pointed to ways that our practice can work with the three aspects of time: with training in present-centeredness, with studying and eventually letting go of the negative patterns from the past, and with aspiring in the future (in this New Year) to develop in ways that are helpful for both the personal and universal dimensions of awakening. A guided visualization helps us particularly with letting go and being in touch with what calls us from our depths for the next period of time.

Determination

We look at both a "deep" determination and various ways to practice moment to moment determination, pointing to examples from the Civil Rights movement and Aung San Suu Kyi. We also explore the difference between skillful and unskillful determination.

Coming Home to Who You Are: Discovering Your Natural Capacity for Love, Integrity, and Compassion, Part 4 of 4

David Richo

Love, integrity and compassion are inborn in all of us. We benefit greatly however when we learn to practice them in effective ways.
In the Buddhist, and in many other spiritual traditions, our 'right conduct' is a primary pathway to happiness and enlightened living. In psychological terms, it can lead us to fearless love, freedom from ego-centeredness, and contentment with ourselves and our predicaments. Most of all, we find the joy of living our lives at a heart level.
We will find specific psychological and spiritual practices that can usher us into a new way of being alive -- as cheerful agents of the goodness that is in us all. Our choices for integrity and loving-kindness reflect that goodness and help us co-create a world of justice, peace, and love. This is an owners' guide to being an upright and loving human.
Based on Dave's book with this same title.
