(Insight Meditation Society - Retreat Center) Recognizing "vedana" or feeling tone - of pleasant, unpleasant, and neutral and habitual reactions

(Insight Meditation Society - Retreat Center) Instructions on mental noting, a guided meditation and a 20 minute talk on learning to take care of what's happening now, and now, and now.

(Gaia House) There is a felt sense of being more free (samadhi), we can use this as a way to return to, and deepen into the freedom that is possible for us. This shapes the ethical behaviour that expands freedom even more, and the deepening understanding of our perception of reality as we liberate it. All the aspects of the paths converge into freed up well-being, which opens the door even wider, and into which we can deepen far beyond.

This Online Dharma Hall session includes a Guided Meditation, a Dharma Talk, and responses to unrecorded questions. This session includes an invitation to attend the Gaia House course Well Beyond: https://gaiahouse.co.uk/programme-2024-25/well-beyond/ and the week-long retreat on Feeling Freedom online: http://www.meditacevhledu.cz/retreats/

(Dhamma Stream Online Sessions) Questions are précised: 01:17 Q1 You mentioned during meditation to start with breathing out. I noticed in my own practice that I don't fully breathe out. In fact breathing out intentionally is more exhausting. How can I be more balanced? 12:27 Q2 I have a mental pattern with deep roots, obsessing over details like the entomology of words that arises when I get panicked or upset. This seems to give me some respite from the panic. Can you offer any advice? 19:02 Q3 I feel both sense of fatigue and desire for connection. I'm confused about how to be with this desire because my mind tells me I should go out and connect with other people. But this isn't the point of meditation is it? How can I understand this tension between internal and external needs in this case? 25:03 Q4 In the last retreat I would wake up not knowing who I am and dream about somebody stabbing my heart. These feelings returned when I went back to domestic duties. In my dreams I am lost. How can I move past this black hole? 30:02 Q5 For me it's very difficult to be mindful every minute every second of my daily life. I do my best. It's easier on retreat or in a monastery. Can you comment? 36:17 Q6 The state of becoming entails grasping and craving then suffering. How can one abide in non becoming?

(Sati Saraniya Hermitage) Listen to the interior silence with audacious selfless attention and see how pure awareness catapults us into a dynamic intuitive presence. We connect to the Dhamma without obstructions. Silence is formless, soundless, complete. We are witness to an emptiness beyond attachment where the burdens of identification have no footing. There is no 'one' to be in that – for when the intellect bows in faith to the heart, we abide in the loving presence of what is here and now. Ahh! but can we sustain it?
