Gaia House The Freedom of an Awakened Heart
2022-07-09 One Moment Many Times 1:26:26
There is only this one moment to meet well. Listening in to the Buddha's teachings, we find a repeating theme of fully sustaining awakening qualities over many moments. How can we maintain insight lenses, virtuous activity, or gathered well-being for a single day?

2022-07-02 Undivided Attention 1:26:47
How much of our lives do we live distracted and dispersed? Diverted away from being gathered, sensitive, and present. When we divide our attention, we move away from wholesomeness and fulfilment. We drift from freedom into dukkha. Guided meditation and talk with questions and responses in the Online Dharma Hall of Gaia House.

2022-03-12 Connecting Into Interconnection 1:24:06
Can we live in a sense of interconnection: where meaningfulness has meaning; and sensitivity takes priority? And can we be willing to live from there? Where the necessary renunciations call us into deeper, nourishing connection. Includes a guided meditation, Dharma reflection, and responses to questions.

2022-03-05 Wise Acceptance and Wise Non-acceptance 1:27:19
Getting to know our experience is so essential, and that is greatly deepened by accepting what has already arisen. But the Dharma is also about cultivation of beautiful, skilful, and wholesome qualities. And that also means abandoning unhelpful habitual ways of being and acting: wise non-acceptance is a part of wise and timely acceptance. This recording contains a guided meditation, Dharma reflection, and questions.

2022-02-19 Responsive to a Fluid Self 1:22:38
We can habitually and instinctively feel like our self, and apparent things of the world have the nature of fixity and stability. Yet, when we look deeper, what appeared independent and inherently there, seems to melt into a kind of fluidity. From this more sensitive meeting, can we find an appropriate response to how we actually feel in the current moment? As if we can go beneath the frozen surface of the idea of who and what is into the dependently originating and fading fluidity.
