7/30/2026 “Clear Comprehension, Everyday Mindfulness and the Brain” with Rick Maddock

To download this talk, right-click and select ‘save audio as’ or select the 3-dot menu to the right of the speaker icon.

Clear comprehension (sampajañña in Pali) is an essential part of the mindfulness practices taught by the Buddha. It brings awareness to how our actions of body, speech and mind are always shaping the person we are becoming. Tonight’s talk will explore this practice and include a neuroscience perspective on becoming aware of our intentions and their suitability.

7/16/2026 “How Mindfulness Matures” with Tanya Wiser

To download this talk, right-click and select ‘save audio as’ or select the 3-dot menu to the right of the speaker icon.

Mindfulness is often described as paying attention to the present moment. Yet throughout the early Buddhist teachings, the Buddha presents mindfulness and clear comprehension together. Over time, we begin to recognize how these two qualities work in partnership: mindfulness helps us know what is happening, while clear comprehension reveals what we might otherwise overlook.We’ll explore how this deepening understanding supports greater wisdom, responsiveness, and care in our daily lives.
