Drawing on the story of Pukkusāti meeting the Buddha, this talk explores four core resolves: not neglecting wisdom, protecting the truth, cultivating generosity, and training in peace. With reflections from retreat practice and daily life, the talk invites us to orient the heart again and again toward these qualities as a path of gradual cultivation and inner freedom.
A Dharma talk and guided equanimity practice exploring steadiness of heart in uncertain times; How to care deeply without hardening, collapsing, or turning away from the complexities of modern life.
This guided meditation explores the third foundation of mindfulness—awareness of mind states. We bring kind, steady attention to thoughts, emotions, and moods, while gently investigating our relationship to them. Seeing how mindfulness can know these experiences without being defined by them, the practice opens space, clarity, and a more compassionate way of relating to the mind.
