Achtfache Pfad
40:38
|
Renate Seifarth
|
|
Der achtfache Pfad ist zweierlei: eine Anleitung wie wir uns weiter entwickeln inmitten unseres alltäglichen Lebens und eine Illustration wie wir uns neu ausrichten in Einklang mit unseren Erkenntnissen in der Meditation.

Denken als Objekt der Achtsamkeit
41:47
|
Renate Seifarth
|
|
In Vipassana Meditation schließen wir das Denken ein in unser Erforschen. Wir ergründen das Wesen des Denkens und erkennen das Entstehen und Vergehen der Gedanken. Gedanken sind nötig für unser Sein in dieser Welt. Problematisch ist die Identifikation mit unseren Gedanken, die zudem eine ganz zentrale Rolle in unserem Selbstverständnis spielen. Ein Resultat hierbei ist das Entstehen von Hochmut wie Minderwertigkeit. In der Praxis wollen wir uns aus der Identifikation mit den Gedanken befreien.

RAIN on Blame: A Guided Meditation
14:38
|
Tara Brach
|
|
When we are stuck in blame or resentment we are in a trance – the other person becomes an unreal bad other, and our own sense of being contracts into a victimized self, an angry self, a righteous self. Using the acronym RAIN, this practice guides us in bringing mindfulness and compassion to our inner experience, and then to viewing the other with a more open and clear heart. By awakening from the trance of blame, we are able to respond with intelligence and care to the unmet needs that underlie all conflict.

Meditation: Relaxed and Alert
21:16
|
Tara Brach
|
|
This meditation begins with a period of relaxing and collecting our attention with intentional long deep breathing. We then deepen embodied presence, and widen to the awareness that includes sounds, sensations, feelings, breath, and all experience. When the mind drifts from this open, awake awareness, we gently return, re-relaxing and resting in an easeful, alert presence. Recorded at Tara’s Wednesday night class, the meditation includes chanting of OM’s and ends with a sense of melting into community.

Putting it All Together: Integration of the Eightfold Path
41:06
|
Ajahn Karunadhammo
|
|
This is a lightly guided, mostly silent meditation from the Friday night practice offered by Ajahn Karunadhammo.
“Many of us approach Buddhist practice believing that the point is to learn mindfulness meditation. Yet there's so much more to understand and practice. The eight factors, or the eightfold path, allow for a complete and fully integrated program, leading toward liberation.”

Holding Grief Through Connection
56:18
|
James Baraz
|
|
Whether the climate crisis, some other social issue or personal loss, sharing our pain by connecting with another helps us hold and process our grief. By opening the heart we can transform our feeling of isolation into one of shared humanity. This talk ends with a guided experiential dyad exercise adapting Joanna Macy’s "Learning to See Each Other" meditation from Coming Back to Life.
