Nirvana, the cessation of dukkha (in English: suffering, discontent, unsatisfying). Yeshe and Tania have a conversation about liberation. Lama Zopa leads a guided meditation presenting shamatha (English: tranquility, or calm abiding) practice and meditative inquiry, an insight practice from the Tibetan that invokes, instills, and integrates prajna, precise knowing.

And Heather sings an emotional rendition of “Liberation,” to the tune of Leonard Cohen’s “Hallelujah.” 

Shivnee Ratna is our Tibetan singing bowl artist.
