Dharma Seed: dharma talks and meditation instruction

(Aloka Earth Room) Short Reflection & Guided Meditation with quotes from Sand Talk, a book by Tyson Yunkaporta | Earthworm Practice for the Anthropocene III | Online Wednesday-Morning

Ayya Santacitta: Moving at the Speed of Trust

(Insight Meditation Community of Richmond) From a simple moment of contact, the mind can create a lot of mental proliferation (papañca), leading to stress and conflict. This talk shows how to interrupt that process through clear, present-moment awareness, drawing on the Honey Ball sutta (MN18), and the Buddha's teachings to the wanderer Bahiya (Ud 1.10).
