Almost all of our suffering comes from selfing. The thoughts and feelings around I, me, and mine. The insight that our meditative practice leads to is understanding that it's not that personal. There's not really a self here to be so attached to. Not a permanent, solid, separate I, me, or mine. So I'm going to talk about that tonight and I'll give some meditation instructions around that. Who am I? What am I? #AgainstTheStream #Buddhist #Meditation ZOOM DHARMA TALKS: Donation based. All are welcome.

I'm going to talk a little bit about war tonight since that's what this sort of American holiday really is about. Whatâ€™s your relationship to death?

Similar to the loving kindness teaching â€œbeing at easeâ€ no matter what's happening, not just when life is easy, but also when life is quite difficult. Maintaining a sense of equanimity, ease, cool, well being, understanding and accepting that pain is unavoidable. That we will all experience pain in our lives and try to meet that with compassion. What does Equanimity mean to you? What is the most challenging area in your life to be equanimous? #AgainstTheStream #Buddhist #Meditation ZOOM DHARMA TALKS: Donation based. All are welcome.

There are certain people who are easier to have compassion for than others, but the practice is to actually have compassion for all living beings. Where do you feel compassion in your body?

We took two and a half months to go through that. I wanted to shift from the mindfulness based meditation instructions to heart practices. Practices around developing kindness and compassion and forgiveness and appreciation, generosity. So I think I'll spend the next few weeks doing meditations on that. I thought I'd start tonight with the kind of umbrella term of kindness, the importance of kindness and the practice of kindness. How do you express kindness? Whatâ€™s your love language? Does it come naturally to you? Whatâ€™s your practice around kindness? #AgainstTheStream #Buddhist #Meditation ZOOM DHARMA TALKS: Donation based. All are welcome.

This section is about mindfulness of the Four Noble Truths. Turning our awareness towards our experience of suffering, the cause of suffering, those times where we're not suffering, the cessation, the end. Those moments throughout our lives where there's no suffering and the goal of living more and more into a life where we're not suffering about what's happening. And the eightfold path that leads to the end of suffering. So I'm going to share some of the traditional teachings about that. How do you know when youâ€™re suffering? What does suffering feel like? What are your experiences with suffering? What are some of the ways that you know that you are suffering? What are some of the things that you suffer about? #AgainstTheStream #Buddhist #Meditation ZOOM DHARMA TALKS: Donation based. All are welcome.

Maintaining a sense of equanimity, ease, cool, well being, understanding and accepting that pain is unavoidable. That we will all experience pain in our lives and try to meet that with compassion.

Some of Martin Luther King's views and politics, I believe, are inspired by Buddhism. One time I gave a Dharma talk that MLK was a Buddhist, and then I got a whole bunch of sh*t about it, because he was very much a Christian. But a lot of his politics in civil rights and in fighting ignorance and oppression were influenced by Mahatma Gandhi and Mahatma Gandhi's nonviolent approach to creating change.

The Buddha says “in order to really have loving kindness, we have to free ourselves from ill will. Let none despise any being in any state”. So this is a instruction… Just for a moment reflecting on how many people you actually despise.

We should be engaging with things rather than acceptance as this sort of complacency that doesn't do anything to change, to try to create a positive shift towards wisdom, justice, equality, whatever it is that we're talking about.

··· ··· ··· ··· Part of the Buddhist teaching is that if you can truly understand who you are and who you're not, you won't suffer so much. You won't take things so personally. You won't be so attached to your views, your opinions and all of the things that you suffer about in this world. All of Buddhism is an invitation to end suffering all. Who am I? Is there a spiritual essence to who I am? Is there a soul? Is there a self? Is there a true self versus a false self? Am I my ego, views or opinions? Is that who I am?

Are you currently in a place where there's so much pain in your life that it often feels hellish, often feels like my life is like a hell realm.

··· ··· ··· ··· Noah Levine Dharma Talk & Guided Meditation What's it feel like to love someone? Maybe some of it could be romantic love like, “I’m in love with this person”. But also just like, “I really love that friend”. Not romantic at all, but I just really love that person. Maybe, ideally there's a sort of Buddhist concept that says, “You know, we wanna try to love all living beings”. What does love feel like? What does it feel like to love someone? What does it mean? Do I meet myself with love? #AgainstTheStream #Buddhist #Meditation ZOOM DHARMA TALKS: Donation based. All are welcome.

41:: Uncertainty with Noah Levine

··· ··· ··· ··· Noah Levine Dharma Talk & Guided Meditation We have a lot of views and opinions and ideas and, but what can we be actually completely confidently certain of Sure about? Our minds, the human mind, this natural phenomena that we all live with, a mind that worries about things that are totally uncertain. Maybe it is the truth of uncertainty that creates the, tendency to worry. Because we just don't know what's going to happen, so anything can happen and often our mind will create the worst case scenario. Does your mind do that? People have different levels of minds that create worry, that create fear, that creates thoughts like “I’m not sure what's gonna happen, but it's probably gonna be bad, or it might be bad.” What does your mind like to worry about? What can we be sure about? What can you know directly here and now? #AgainstTheStream #Buddhist #Meditation ZOOM DHARMA TALKS: Donation based. All are welcome.

··· ··· ··· ··· Noah Levine Dharma Talk & Guided Meditation Some of this could be framed in Buddhist's ideas around karma, good karma, positive actions, wise actions, bad karma or negative, unskillful harmful ways of behaving. I think that most people are seeking a little less suffering. A bit of an improvement in the quality of life. Aa bit of transformation, but not looking for total liberation. What does that mean to you? What does it mean to be a good person? Have you had periods of your life where you weren't so good or, or aspects of your life where you were unskillful? How good do you wanna be? Do you have some reservations about being good? ZOOM DHARMA TALKS: Donation based. All are welcome.

43:: Money & Finances with Noah Levine

01.01.1970 · 01:00:00 ··· 03.05.2023 · 22:28:14 ··· ···
··· ··· ··· ··· One of the core sources of suffering, joy and sorrow in our lives is around finances and money. Around attachment, fear, worry, clinging and generosity. All of the associated stuff around our relationship to money. I'll discuss some of the Buddha's teaching, some of my own experience and what I take away from Buddhism in relationship to money. How much of your suffering comes from your finances? What’s your relationship with money? What has buddhism taught you about money? What did your Mom teach you about money? What did your Dad teach you about money? ZOOM DHARMA TALKS: Donation based. All are welcome.

44:: Sex and Sexuality with Noah Levine

01.01.1970 · 01:00:00 ··· 26.04.2023 · 21:54:05 ··· ···
··· ··· ··· ··· 1) What do you think about sex? 2) What’s your favorite part about being a sexual being? 3) What’s the hard part about sexuality? 4) Where did you learn about sex? 5) What are you learning from buddhism about sex? It's part of your natural being. It's normal to create joy and sorrow around sex and sexuality and that Buddhism offers some radical transformative perspectives of how to engage intimacy and sexuality and love with less suffering, perhaps not so much suffering at all, ideally.

··· ··· ··· ··· Suffering is a part of existence for everyone, but it doesn't have to be. The dharma is for those of us who say, “I'd rather not suffer. I'd rather not be normal. I'd like to rebel against the normal status quo of human suffering. I'd like to, take this radical path of actually freeing myself from suffering. I defy the causes of suffering.” --------------------------------------- ZOOM DHARMA TALKS: Donation based. All are welcome.

··· ··· ··· ··· The core of what I'm gonna talk about is acceptance. I ask you to reflect for a moment about what are some of the difficult things for you to accept about reality? What do you find hard to accept? I believe it's part of our practice to see clearly and accept the world as it is. Right now, it’s like this, the world is like this. In no way does acceptance mean complacency. It means to see clearly what's happening in you and around you. - - - - - - - ZOOM DHARMA TALKS: Donation based. All are welcome.

50:: The Five Hindrances with Noah Levine

01.01.1970 · 01:00:00 ··· 08.03.2023 · 05:51:47 ··· ···
··· ··· ··· ··· The promise of Buddhism is that it is possible to not suffer about the pain and difficulties in our life. What hinders your ability to not suffer? The buddha gave a list of the 5 hindrances: 1. Craving for pleasure 2. Aversion to pain 3. Restlessness, anxiousness, and impatience 4. Laziness and procrastination 5. Self-doubt and unworthiness Mindfulness allows us to slow down and name these hindrances without allowing them to overtake us and cause us suffering. - - - - - ZOOM DHARMA TALKS: Donation based.
