Experiencing our aliveness through our senses is the gateway to resting in formless loving presence. This meditation guides us to awakening through our body, and recognizing the backdrop of silence, of awake awareness, that is the source of all being.

All that we cherish—creativity, love, wisdom, realization—arises from an embodied presence. Yet as we know, the wounds and trauma of our society and individual lives leads toward dissociation. These two talks look at the challenges to awakening through our bodies, and the practices and teachings that guide us on the path (re-mastered talk from 2021).

Non-Violence is not Pacificism
16:07

|
Bhante Bodhidhamma
|
|
|
Pacificism is an ideal, a concept placed opon reality and so can lead to unwise reaction. Non-violence is an attitude which may mean the use of force, but not violence which is force plus anger.
