We're often told to "let go" in the practice, but often times that is easier said than done. In this week's episode, Gregory chats about letting go and what that practically means in your meditation practice.

Ayyā Dhammadīpā was a special guest of the Wise Spirit Buddhist Community (of which Gregory is the guiding teacher). She started us off with a guided meditation on the sense doors (you can skip to minute 31:30 if you would like to just hear the Dharma talk). The talk is a profound one around the five Khandas: Form, Vedana (feeling tone), Perception, Mental Formations, and Consciousness.
