Stilla Sinne, Klart Sinne (del 2)

From Stockholms buddhistcenter on Tue, 28 Jan, 2025 - 00:00
Ett utforskande av buddhistisk meditation ur två olika men samtidigt oskiljaktiga vinklar. Övningar som stillar sinnet och övningar som bidrar till ett sinne klart nog för att se och förstå på djupet. Denna andra kväll fokuserade på vipashyana - Insiktsmeditation.

Vidyadharini on Insight

From Order Connection on Mon, 27 Jan, 2025 - 09:58

Vidyadharani describes how consistent meditation and reflection can transform negativity, even in ordinary circumstances. She uses personal stories to show how deepening states of calm and maitri reduce harmful habits and open up the possibility of insight. Drawing on images of Amitabha and the idea of Sukhavati, she emphasizes that this shift from the conditioned to the unconditioned is possible right here and now.

On India’s Republic Day, there was a reflection on Dr. Ambedkar’s gift of the Constitution and its link to freedom and equality. We heard a talk from Kulanandi on the irreversibility of stream entry. She explained how deeply seeing impermanence shifts our perspective for good.

Subhuti on Stream Entry

From Order Connection on Mon, 27 Jan, 2025 - 09:03

This talk explores how Going Forth means more than leaving home—it’s about continually letting go of whatever holds us back. Drawing on the examples of the Buddha and Sangharakshita, Subhuti shows how dissatisfaction can fuel deeper commitment. There’s a call for honest reflection on how to live differently, guided by the spirit of Going for Refuge.

Wisdom Takes the Form of Light (FBA Podcast)

From Free Buddhist Audio on Sat, 25 Jan, 2025 - 11:00

Maitrisiddhi explores Shinjin as faith, bodhicitta and wisdom. What happens when the conditioned mind lets up for a bit? Experiences of beauty, openness, love, desire to go for refuge and devotion naturally arise; we experience contact with ‘amida’, the quality of limitlessness. Are those experiences ‘ours’ – or something else? This talk was given at Taraloka Retreat Centre, 2024.
