Today, we'll explore the concept of Dharma—its meaning, its role in Buddhism, and how it connects to wise action in our daily lives. Let's start by defining Dharma in a straightforward way.In Buddhism, Dharma (or Dhamma in Pali) has several interconnected meanings:​The Teachings of the Buddha◦Dharma represents the guidance and wisdom shared by the Buddha. This includes key teachings like the Four Noble Truths and the Eightfold Path.◦It's not just the words of the Buddha—it's the path of practice and the realization of enlightenment.​The Nature of Reality◦Dharma also refers to the true nature of things, including the natural laws of the universe.◦For example, we often hear, "All dharmas are without self-essence," which highlights the impermanence and interconnectedness of all phenomena.​A Universal Truth◦Dharma is universal, applicable to everyone, regardless of their circumstances. It's a path we follow to live in harmony with the way things truly are.In essence, Dharma is both the path and the goal—a guide for reducing suffering and achieving liberation.How Do We Practice Dharma Today?Here are some common ways people engage with Dharma in their daily lives:MeditationPracticing meditation helps us calm our minds and see reality more clearly.Ethical ConductLiving by principles such as right speech, right action, and right livelihood fosters a harmonious life.Study of TextsReading and reflecting on Buddhist teachings deepens our understanding.Community PracticesChanting, Dharma talks, and retreats provide support and encouragement on the path.Phillip Moffitt writes in Dancing with Life:"Wise action is any action that liberates the mind, moves you toward freedom from suffering, and supports a feeling of well-being that is independent of external conditions."Stephen Batchelor, author of Buddhism Without Beliefs, explains, "Dharma practice requires the courage to confront what it means to be human.”David Chernikoff, Life Part Two“The Dharma in Six Words” Pay AttentionDon't ClingBe Kind Visit our website to join us live every Sunday at 6 pm CST on Zoom for Meditation, a Talk & Group Discussionhttps://www.floweringlotusmeditation.org

A conversation with the former chief editor of Esquire magazine, who abandoned all that outer success to become a ful-time yogi. He is now a renovned meditation teacher and author. This is some of what we speak about: Phillip tells us how in his early life he was both a work aholic as an entrepreneur, but at the same time he never put aside his interest in his inner life, which back then was expressed in his yoga practice. his big concern was always what gives meaning to life Phillip tells us how he took over Esquire magazine and converted the failing magazine into a success. And how then... in the middle of a meeting, he had a revelation flow through him: he had to follow a different path. These revelations that have come to Philip regularly, he calls intuition. He says, we must trust our body, feel ourselves embodied, that will lead to intuition How challenges are more fun than just managing success How it is so easy to become complacent in your life, when you are successful and life is easy We talk about how each of us needs to find our path of wellbeing, which means finding authenticity, meaning, continuity and coherence in our life - and how this is a continuous path... you never arrive... because of the radical impermanence Phillip talks about the basic conditions of this human realm, and how it is not a mistake, that there is suffering in this realm, but also, that we can work with this suffering... we speak about the causes of suffering... living a values-based life, based on wise view and vise intention - in each step living your values. having a life of integrity and dignity is a satisfaction in itself The nature of this realm is difficult when you don't accept the basic reality as it is, you are more likely to create more suffering and unskilful actions staying positive doesn't mean that you don't deeply accept suffering There are two types of suffering, neurotic suffering and necessary suffering. When we are in that reactive state we have bad judgment, and can't see clearly, we can't even see the happiness that is possible in life The nature of this realm is desire, so we do need to work skillfully with them - it is the grasping and attachment to the outcomes of those desires which can easily become unwholesome If you have a desirous mind, it is always going to be in that kind of state, no matter how much it achieves and gets. The jungian notion of the second half of life, where we move away from building up the ego, and start seeing more clearly the reality of how things really are There is nothing wrong with ambition, but what are the motives behind that ambition? Life is always dancing around us, and we can participate in that dance in a skillful and joyful way. We can learn to be a good dance partner... We always have some choice to realign, to adjust our course. It is not skillful to collapse or become bitter under all the suffering in the world, then we just add to the suffering. So much of living is an art, where information must become knowledge. We add to the suffering of the world when we resist reality Phillip explains the four noble truths and how they truly are ennobling Mindfulness without intention doesn't have direction, and intention without mindfulness forgets itself...

Since you're listening to this, it means you're probably an ambitious person. But that ambition can come at a cost. We constantly want more, and find it hard to accept where we are or how far we've come. In this episode, I cover how to deal with this paradox, both from a philosophical and practical perspective. In case you really enjoy this episode, I also reference a few of my favorite books on the subject: 1) Dancing With Life by Phillip Moffitt and 2) Already Free by Bruce Tift. Hope you enjoy! **PS: If you could rate and review the podcast, it would mean the world to me and it would help get the word out to others just like us so we can continue building this amazing, one-of-a-kind community.** Connect With Matt: [Free] 30-Day Ultimate Physique Development Manual: https://bit.ly/UltimatePhysiqueDevelopment Hire Matt For Coaching: https://mattmcleod.org/online-coaching Twitter: @mattmcleod6 Instagram: @mattmcleod6 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/mattmcleod6 Website: https://mattmcleod.org ---- Produced by: David Margittai | In Post Media Website: https://www.inpostmedia.com Email: david@inpostmedia.com Social: @_margittai © 2021 Matt McLeod

T & K talk about how the COVID-19 pandemic has impacted our expectations for the year 2020, relationship expectations, and how to manage expectations to avoid disappointment.

(Spirit Rock Meditation Center) The art of forgiveness begins with connecting to the heart. The practice involves learning skills such as metta, mindful acknowledgement, and compassion. Practicing these skills enables you to free yourself from painful identification with past events. This is a day to bring remorse or grief about past actions and move beyond feelings of guilt and shame. Likewise, if someone has wronged you, you will be guided toward holding them in accountability without closing your heart. Additionally, forgiveness practice will move you toward clarity and acceptance for the ways you have let yourself down. Practicing forgiveness allows you to move from a heavy, remorseful heart and a reactive mind to a heart that’s light but still feels regret, and a mind that is calm and clear. The day will be held with periods of guided silent sitting and walking meditation practice, instruction in the art and practice of forgiveness, and a forgiveness ceremony, with opportunities to ask questions to the instructors.

Way before Buzzfeed, the Buddha was creating listicles: The Seven Factors of Enlightenment, The Three Jewels, The Eight Worldly Winds... I could go on. He wasn’t using these lists as clickbait, obviously; they were teaching tools -- ways to understand how the mind works, and how we can work with the mind. The first and, many believe, most important list promulgated by the Buddha was the Four Noble Truths. And today, we're going to take a stroll through this list with Phillip Moffitt. He’s got an interesting resume. He’s a deep dharma teacher who studied in the Thai Forest tradition for years, and was a Co-Guiding Teacher at Spirit Rock Meditation Center for most of the last decade. But he’s also a former editor of Esquire Magazine who has run workshops and done one-on-one counseling on the subject of personal life changes and transitions. As I mentioned in the last episode, we’re dedicating this whole week to the subject of managing change in a chaotic world. Monday, we spoke to Bruce Feiler, who takes a more journalistic approach to the subject. Today, it’s a Buddhist approach. Not only does Phillip walk us through the ways in which the Four Noble Truths can help us manage transitions, but he also layers in another list -- a listicle within a listicle. Don’t worry, it’s not confusing or complicated; it’s incredibly interesting. So interesting that Phillip actually wrote a whole book about the combination of these lists, called Dancing With Life.

Offered by Phillip Moffitt for SIMS at Nalanda West, 2019 December 06 Phillip Moffitt takes us through an exploration of “The Gap”—that interval of time when we lose mindfulness and intention which then leads to unwise speech and action. This investigation was inspired by a line written by André Aciman in a New Yorker article that appeared in March of 2014: “In between knowing something and refusing to know it, lies a murky chasm that even the most enlightened among us is perfectly happy to inhabit.” This talk is also presented in video here: https://seattleinsight.org/Talks/Talk/TalkID/1128

Renunciation is a fancy way to say 'let go'. In this talk Mary uses Phillip Moffitt's teaching on self-restraint to show how it's a different way to practice renunciation and letting go. Stop being the star of your own movie is one of these ways.Recorded Nov 16, 2019 in Los Angeles

In this episode, Dan shares an article written by Phillip Moffitt about how expectations are undermining our ability to be happy. Dan shares some thoughts on how having hopes and goals is one way to look at human aspirations without having the expectations to go with them. 

This time, The Three Renunciations: a method for applying the practice of renunciation into our everyday lives and thereby transforming anger, greed and ignorance into the qualities of an awakened life. This practice was thought up by the Buddhist teacher Phillip Moffitt.
