Drop your Banana - Spring Retreat - Part 2 - Morning Meditation by Stephan Pende Wormland

Introduction to the spring retreat 2019 in Sweden. This retreat is about the most important thing: Essence Love. And dropping the Bananas which prevent you to contact and be Essence Love.

Realizing emptiness through the Sevenfold Reasoning by Chandakirti.

Realizing emptiness with the Sevenfold Reasoning of Chandakirti. The self too cannot inherently be:

1) the same entity as the aggregates;

2) other than the aggregates;

3) in the aggregates; and so too, really:

4) the aggregates are not in the self somehow;

5) the self does not possess the aggregates;

6) it is not the collection of the aggregates;

7) it is not the shape of the aggregates, nor is it their continuum in time.

Saying yes to your experience as it reduces your resistance and with that, you move into a space of less suffering. Saying yes gives you the space to respond to the situation and to emotions in a more balanced way.
