Today was another concentration meditation (by request). This is more of a body scan:
Vipashana meditation w. Dr. B. Alan Wallace
The meditation starts at 07:45.Have a lovely day.
Today, we did the second part of the Glen Svensson meditation we started yesterday. This section was on knowing that you are aware.
Started with the last 3 minutes of the video in yesterday’s link, then switched over to:
Glen Svensson Meditation 2 02 at HH 42 Sakya Trizin Ratna Vajra Rinpoche in Israel 2019
It is probably best not to split the two parts though, as there’s only supposed to be a minute of two of a break between them. It’s about 45 minutes in total.
Have a good week!
More Shamata this morning, with an attempt to meditate with open eyes.
Glen Svensson Meditation 2 01 at HH 42 Sakya Trizin Ratna Vajra Rinpoche in Israel 2019
As there isn’t specific meditation homework for the winter break, we’re aiming to do one Shamata meditation and one Analytical meditation each week.
Today, we followed:
The Way of Shamatha Retreat with Alan Wallace (1/26)
(“settling the body, speech and mind in their natural states.”)The meditation runs from 01:08 to 01:33.
Today, we followed:
Guided Meditation on Empathetic Joy (Rejoicing)
I don’t know the name of the person leading the meditation, but it is from Tushita Mahayana Meditation Centre in Delhi.
All the best.
Thanks to the group for keeping things running last week, while I was away.
Today, we followed:
Express Meditation Ven. Katy (Analytical Meditation)
which has some nine-round breathing, then a general contemplation of Bodhicitta based on one of the entries in the Lam Rim Year book.
Have a lovely day.
Today, we repeated this meditation on the combined method for generating Bodhicitta and Tonglen:
Afternoon Express Meditation: Tonglen – Ven Thubten Dechen
Have a good week!
Today’s meditation was:
Simple Morning Meditation: Body Awareness, Breath and Gentle Tong-Len – Ven. Yonten.
Today’s meditation was:
Afternoon Express Meditation: Purification with the Four Opponent Powers – Ven Thubten Dechen
Have a lovely week!
Yesterday, we followed:
5_Weekly_Six Perfections: Perfection of Ethics and the Four Opponent Powers to Purify Negative Karma – Ven. Yonten.
The meditation starts at 00:48:57 and ends at 01:03:40.I don’t know who the leader of today’s meditation was. It is from the Kopan Dharma Teachings channel on YouTube.
Meditation on Impermanence and Death
See you next week.
This morning, we followed this meditation on Impermanence:
04 Meditation on Five Aspects of Impermanence 11-01-21 – Ven. Sangye Khadro.
Today, we followed this meditation on the Benefits of Bodhicitta (Lam-rim based):
Afternoon Express Meditation – Ven. Thubten Dechen
Thanks to Laura F and Katrin for saving me from screen-sharing from a bus. I’m not around tomorrow, but there’ll still be a session. Have a good week!
Today’s one wasn’t really a meditation. We listened to Ven. Yonten talk through some of the later verses in the Wheel of Sharp Weapons:
8_Wheel of Sharp Weapons Meditation and Illusory Appearances
(starting at 36:16 and ending at 52:14)I’m away tomorrow, but the zoom session will be open for anyone who wants to join (and hopefully share or lead a meditation!)
On Tuesday, Laura F. was in charge and we did the second half of Ven. Yonten’s meditation on the 8 Worldly Dharmas and Karma.
Main Meditation 1: The 8 Worldly Concerns: With Awareness of Karma and Using Mahayana Mind Training
Starting at 37:17.I’m away for most of the rest of the month, but the sessions will still be running.
All the best!
