(Karuna Buddhist Vihara) This dhamma talk, guided meditation, questions and responses was offered on 29th of November, 2025 for “How do I apply the Dhamma to THIS!?!” 00:14 - Guided Meditation 28:03 - DHAMMA TALK 51:43 - Q&A

(Insight Meditation Society - Retreat Center) Silent sit followed by teachings on clear understanding: Sampajañña.

(Insight Meditation Society - Forest Refuge) A reflection on how boundless Metta naturally becomes gratitude and generosity. Grounded in early teachings, elemental presence, embodied practice, and the simple movement of a heart learning to give freely.

(Insight Meditation Society - Forest Refuge) Metta is a profound shift in perspective, linking the astronauts overview effect with the Buddha's teachings on Boundlessness. Through story, reflection and classical teaching, we explore how the heart opens beyond "me", revealing clarity, shared belonging and the identity shift that makes compassion the only sane response.
