Today I'm going a little old-school. Back in my first podcast, Ready Get Centered Go, I used to share the dharma talks that opened my public yoga classes. Today, I'm bringing that back with a heartfelt message about fear, confusion, and how we can respond with presence, hope, and purposeful action.You'll hear a real intro from one of my Online Yoga Membership (OYM) classes called “Planting Seeds of Hope.” I created this class in response to the unsettling energy in the air—politically, socially, and energetically. When things feel chaotic, it's more important than ever to stay rooted and uplifted. This is my offering toward that.

2025-03-30 | Dharma Talk | Being Led By Vow, Not Pulled By Karma | Jess by Appamada

Often during our meditation practice, we encounter a state known as “busy mind,” which is when there's a kind of ongoing flow of anxious or repetitive mental chatter that tends to keep us locked in the realm of the past or the future, and therefore, mostly distracted from the reality of the present moment, or … the life we're actually living. This talk explores how this particular mind state is created, and how we can use our mediation practice to mindfully observe and slow down the flow of thoughts, and in turn calm both the mind and body. It includes a meditation at the end.

During this talk, Peter reviews the 5 Hindrances, which he describes as “energy dumps”–setting them aside frees up energy for further development of the 7 Awakening Factors, creating more opportunities to liberate the mind from dukkha, the distress and confusion resulting from the action of the Hindrances. Here are the notes prepared for this talk:  […]

"Relaxed Living Through Perfect Imperfection" is a Dharma Talk offered at Two Hands Sangha (and the title is a play on the Audi slogan which is explained in the talk) on the topic of the Four Brahma Viharas. Let's explore these four practices, and how they are both the path and the fruit of practice. I hope you enjoy this one!https://bio.reverendgeorgebeecher.com

Dharma Talk by Anjali Jacques Oule at the Toronto Zen Buddhist Temple, February 23 2025

Recorded on March 1, 2025 at Boundless Mind Temple, NY. "If we say there's a right, there must be a wrong? But if we say harmonious perspective, we can embody the middle path and we don't have to make others wrong. We have to figure out how we can be harmonious with other people that we interact with. It's a radically different approach. It's non-american, and if it's non-american, it means it's subversive. And if it's subversive, it means it could be transformative. And if it's transformative, it could be revolutionary." "Who are you? Are you who the society says you must be, or are you a miracle?" "I think Buddhism is at a crossroads. We can no longer sit on the sides and be observers of the pain of others. We must go into the marketplace with our truth: Causes plus conditions equals outcomes, impermanence, and shatter the illusions that have created destruction and hatred for generations."
