Humility and Confidence
59:19
|
|
James Baraz
|
|
|
The Buddhist writer Wei Wu Wei says: "True humility is the absence of anyone to be proud." We are often humbled by life. How we handle it can either lead to defeat or profound growth. We will explore how being humbled can deepen our capacity to open to all of our experience and strengthen our confidence and trust as we align ourselves with something greater than ourself.

Freely Engaging
55:35
|
|
Martin Aylward
|
|
|
These talks build on one another and work well as a series. Building on and referring to the previous talks on the retreat, these reflexions serve as an invitation to reflect on our engagement with the world. Reflections draw on a full and free engagement with thought, speech and action for showing up amidst the turbulence and uncertainty of the world we live in.

Freely Knowing
46:55
|
|
Martin Aylward
|
|
|
These talks build on one another and work well as a series. This talk looks at the inherently knowing nature of mind. Martin looks at the way we get stuck in knowledge, or knowing about, and generate anxiety and a sense of deficiency about not knowing. He invites us beyond conventional knowing into non-conceptual awareness, and the direct knowing of whatever is happening.

|
|
Martin Aylward
|
|
|
These talks build on one another and work well as a series. In this talk Martin explores the capacity to inhabit experience, to be with experience from the inside; to abide in the midst of what is happening. The talk uses the storm that is raging outside the hall as an example of sitting steadily in the midst of turbulence, and all that swirls around our attention.

Inner Ecology
54:46
|
|
Kim Allen
|
|
|
In this talk Kim Allen develops an ecological metaphor to help us cultivate our mind and develop our practice. She outlines four approaches to our practice grounded in terms of natural ecologies:
1) Broadening our focus
2) Revising our notions of good and bad
3) Developing a coherent sense of our goal by creating a healthy ecosystem and then letting go
4) Expanding from our inner ecology and balancing with the outer ecology.
