00:00:00 The Open Sangha Foundation: a universal gathering place for Western Buddhism
00:19:51 Taking money and business out of Western Buddhism; forming relationships; encouraging generosity
00:26:06 Working with what’s already available; no-hierarchy friendship model; hierarchy of respect
00:42:57 Preparing for cultural differences; using existing networks
00:50:09 The Triple Gem; nobility rubs off; being in seclusion; light and heavy thoughts
00:58:01 Sati (“waking up”) means “practice over and over again”; remember to investigate; paying attention to our senses
01:03:44 Thinking about thinking clearly
01:06:15 Let it go; relax; the job is done
01:10:27 “Emptiness” - there’s nothing to it, no importance, no heaviness; re-arranging our priorities
01:16:34 Be compassionate to yourself now; suffering is in demand; meditation is not important
