Yes, yes yes, Great Gratitude❤

Thank you for this insightful video! I’m grateful for the deeper understanding of how our physical space can support and enhance meditation practice. It’s so important to create an environment that feels safe and nurturing, and this video really helped me see how that impacts my mindfulness journey.

I'm so sorry for your loss of Serri. In spirit she is with you. 🙏🧚🐾

Thank you for slowly prying open (reopening) the early human connection to all things. Being all things.

Thanks for reviewing the Holding Environment again. So important!

Very much worth knowing about and learning about.

I hope these precious souls know that they're having a positive impact on us out here in layville :)

Wonderful 😊

Gratitude to Jesse Maceo Vega-Frey and Michele McDonald for their teachings that inspired this talk 🙏

In one of satipatthana meditations Bhikku leds that there is nothing sexual about body and I must say, even though I am 36 years old, for the first time I am sitting in my home naked and I am comfortable with my body. It's just body, nothing sexual about it, nothing to be ashamed of, or its not an object, or tool for pleasures. It feels like a little kid who doesn't mind if is naked, or dressed up. Its very freeing. ❤

Sadhu sadhu sadhu❤

May compassion, patience, and wisdom, win over Love, hate, and the greed for god money.

Nice and sweet. It seems that West people has biggest problem with desires and lust. ( East people seems to have biggest problem with anger ) . Maybe it can be more clear for audience to hear hinayana , mahayana and vajrayana approach to desires and lust ? Also results of lust like cheating and adultery which are breaking people hearts and lives can be overviewed. All best .🧡

I can imagine the cliffhanger the class would have been left on here at the end lmao. Incredible lecture, thank you to everyone involved!

its the presence in the central channel of my torodial field

Jay is a fantastic lecturer. Thank you

Losing the ego can result in psychosis or in liberation from ego consciousness. It is not to be taken lightly. See below.

In meditation where all is impersonal meditation could be a problem. Relating to a Universal Mind as in Buddhism without anything that is personal could be fraught. When Arjuna in the Gita saw the Impersonal God he became scared and begged to see the Personal God. Hinduism righty sees God as being both impersonal and personal. A meditator should have a Self-Realized guru as a guide. The guru like God is both impersonal and personal and the meditator can relate to the personal god manifesting through the guru which is helpful and comforting as the impersonal alone can be scary as we relate personally not impersonally. Christians who were advancing spiritually had the same problem with demons, the subconscious mind erupting. Calling on Jesus and concentrating on him was protection for them. A meditator’s concentration should be strong, meditating without concentration at the Spiritual Eye is not safe.

Thank you Joseph! This is wonderful. 😊

I’m eager to learn more from Joseph. I enjoy it

How do I get to the center.?

I'm sorry I missed the live version of this. This information desperately NEEDS to be more widely understood amongst the greater community of practitioners. I suffered meditation sickness after doing a few years of fairly intensive zen meditation in 2003, and it has severely constrained my life for the past 20+ years, making it difficult to work and sustain or develop relationships. While it has abated somewhat, it is still problematic, but I can no longer work. BOTTOM LINE: The teachers I worked with at the time (who were exceptionally experienced - I was at a well known American zen monastery known for rigorous standards of practice) should have known to say STOP doing zazen and shift into an alternative practice. This was not part of my conversations with my teachers about my issues. The precept of do no harm was breached in my case, and I'm still bitter about it. I roll my eyes whenever well-intentioned people who describe themselves as teachers or experienced practitioners say that meditation can do no harm.

Wonderful teaching wonderful meditation!, it's all based on the teachings of the Buddha! All this leads step by step to Nibbāna! 🙏🙏🙏

🙏

This is super well presented Bhante. Sadhu x3!

🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

Wonderful! Thank you so much!

resentment kills you from the inside out. speaking from experience.

This meditation (as well as a similar I found by analayo) is disrupted by advertisments, so unfortunately I would not recommend them. Thanks anyway to Analayo

Thank you so much for your wise words,yes we just not follow the precepts but apply these wonderful precepts in our life,with warm wishes.kalpna.

🙏
