04/28/2022 “Revisiting Fundamentals: The Meaning of ‘The Middle Way’” with Dennis Warren

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

The Historical Buddha explicitly described the three trainings of the Eight-Fold Path as “the Middle Way.” At first glance, this description seems to provide a clear and tangible guide to evaluating elements of practice: What practice represents the middle point between extremes?

Is this what is meant by this teaching? Is it that simple? What standard would we use to make this seemly straight-forward evaluation? Or is there something more? How does the notion of “the Middle Way” fit into the Buddha’s finely woven net of teachings, psychology, methods and values.

During this evening we’ll examine the historical factors that led to this teaching. The context in which it was first introduced. And practical and powerful applications which provide a more expansive basis for understanding the role of the Middle Way in practice and life. The subject matter of this evening is appropriate for all stages of practice.

04/23/2022 “Recognizing Natural Awareness” with Greg Scharf

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

Meditation can be seen as the process of learning to recognize and trust a natural quality of awareness that is available to all of us in any moment no matter what is happening in our experience. This awareness allows us to open to and connect with the truth of each moment.

As we gain confidence in the mind’s ability to recognize this natural awareness, we begin to release the burden of trying to control, manipulate, or fix experience so that it meets our ideas of the way it should be, and relax into the truth of the way it actually is.

We start to see directly for ourselves what leads to well-being and freedom and what leads to suffering, both in our own life and in the world around us. Through this process we begin to live our lives from a place of greater balance, integrity, confidence, and connection.
