2020-08-06 Opportunities for Samadhi and Metta 50:37
Drawing the hindrances towards samadhi. Exploring how we can find ways to ease greed and aversion by relating to them as energy, rather than as content and story. Based around the insight that all obstacles to practice arise in our ways of relating. And remembering there is always a possibility for another way of relating, leads us towards the liberation of possibilities.

2020-06-03 The Peace of a Boundless Heart 1:41:27
Teachings and practices to ease us from habitual patterns towards something endlessly (boundless heart) liberating. Exploring through a mediation, talk, and Q&R, freedom with what appears, freedom from what appears, via the freedom teachings of anicca and dukkha, and particularly sankhara–how we participate in the creation of 'the all of the all'.

All phenomena are fabricated by perception: all things are empty of inherently existing separate from the atmosphere of attention. We explore what happens to phenomena and the sense of self when perception is soaked in kindness and care. Supported by the suttas: Two Sorts of Thinking (MN19), and the Karaniya Metta Sutta (SN1.8).
