Everything is meditation itself and can be regarded as an opportunity for change; this is the art of turning the negative into the positive.
Buddhist meditation
Dharma Read: The Practice of Dāna.
By giving freely, we loosen the bonds of greed and cultivate a sense of abundance.
Dharma Read: Tathāgata.
The Buddha frequently used language to convey deeper truths beyond conventional expression.
Dharma Read: The Buddha Within: Realising Our Innate Wisdom.
In the absence of self, the Buddha within is not diminished.
Dharma Read: When you dream at night you see all sorts of different things.
It is all your personal experience.
Dharma Read: The duality between self and no-self, self and other dissolves, not in the sense that the world vanishes.
In its place, there is the direct experience of interconnectedness, where everything is seen as part of a dynamic, interdependent whole.
Dharma Read: It is important to note that clear awareness is not a rejection of the relative world in which we live.
From the perspective of clear awareness, we engage with life fully, but without attachment or aversion.
Dharma Read: Dāna and Anattā: The Union of Giving and Not-Self.
Buddha made an important distinction between ordinary acts of giving and true dāna.
Dharma Read: The shift from experience to process.
The deeper our insights go, the more they reveal the interconnectedness of all beings, the impermanence of all things, and the absence of a separate, enduring self.
Dharma Read: A lot of aversion was arising, so I was trying to make it all right.
That was certainly no way to make it right.
