  • Dependent Origination (11-08-21)
    Dhamma Dena Meditation Center: Online Queer Retreat with Leslie Booker and Ian Challis, November 2021 (Week 1)
    Dharma talk by Arinna Weisman on dependent origination:
    "One of the things that's been very helpful for me, given some of my own history, is to be really very detailed in the understanding and analysis of what happens when I'm caught in some of the trauma that rises inside of myself or that acts itself out? What is going on? And so, I wanted to take some time to go through a little bit of that and use the teachings of dependent origination as a framework"

    "As these energies come up in our mind, hearts, bodies, and we are present, we can discern: ah yes, here you are, anger. Can I disentangle you from the thoughts and allow myself to feel your energy? And that's where the healing is — can I feel you in my body?"

  • Morning Instruction & Guided Meditation: Placing Ourselves Near (11-03-21)
    Dhamma Dena Meditation Center: Online Queer Retreat with Leslie Booker and Ian Challis, November 2021 (Week 1)
    Morning instructions by Arinna Weisman, followed by a guided meditation:
    "Someone who's studied the texts a lot called Analayo, translated the word mindfulness as 'placing near'. And I love that - that we're placing near this knowing and a knowing that's imbued with caring or friendship. I'm placing myself near myself. I haven't split the scene. And even if I have split the scene, or even if I am dissociated, I'm placing myself near that, in any way that I can."
