15. Do You Have A Practice http://feedproxy.google.com/~r... download (audio/x-m4a, 0.00Mb) Description: This talk is meant to suggest the importance of a regular meditation practice. The pull of the world, and the normal distractions and natural egoic self builders don’t remind us that we need to see that there is more than thought. There is experience. We can exist without our minds running all the time. We [...] |
||
|
16. A Rainy Day in Philadelphia http://feedproxy.google.com/~r... download (video/x-m4v, 0.00Mb) Description: Something a little different today. No talking. Just watching. What do the faces say to you? Where do our minds go as we walk through this life? How many of us are really here, and when are we most here? There’s the pigeon, and the playing. The begging, and the pain… The energy underneath it [...] |
||

17. Looking Through Other Peoples Eyes http://feedproxy.google.com/~r... download (audio/x-m4a, 0.00Mb) Description: Many talks I’ve given have been about the perspective shift of being able to look through other people’s eyes. And while this is a deeply important skill to develop to inform ourselves and to evolve, if not done from a place of health, it can lead to enabling co-dependent behavior. Healthy perspective shifting includes: Understanding [...] |

19. Learning to be Detached http://feedproxy.google.com/~r... download (audio/x-m4a, 0.00Mb) Description: I was recently having a discussion with a good friend of mine. He mentioned that people who have had trauma and have learned to detach to protect themselves would make great Buddhists.

||
|
20. Do We Change The World Or Accept It http://feedproxy.google.com/~r... download (audio/x-m4a, 0.00Mb) Description: Surrendering to the moment is a very important teaching. Learning to accept what is, is one of the fundamentals of growing spiritually. So if acceptance is fundamental to this teaching, then why do all these teachers want to change what is? Why are they unable or unwilling to accept the world in its perfection exactly [...] |
||
|
21. Fearlessly Feeling Fear http://feedproxy.google.com/~r... download (audio/x-m4a, 0.00Mb) Description: A teenage boy just heard that Tommy wants to fight him in the schoolyard. He feels fear, but it’s not OK to feel fear. He’s supposed to be a man. He’s supposed to be tough. Or at least that’s what his belief system is telling him. A woman in college was raised Christian and believes [...] |
||
|
22. From Clutter to Clarity http://feedproxy.google.com/~r... download (audio/x-m4a, 0.00Mb) Description: External clutter is linked to your internal state of mind. Ownership of things is part of what the self is trying to accomplish. It feels bigger and more important when it has more. Because of this, we tend to let things define us. This is one of the problems of finding true happiness. Things decay. [...] |
||
|
23. Nested Duality http://feedproxy.google.com/~r... download (audio/x-m4a, 0.00Mb) Description: What is nested duality? This talk begins to discuss the play of opposites. I talk about the importance of relating in new ways to good and bad. Ultimately this talk is trying to convey the error of nested duality which is when we make the non-dual experience something good. As we look at good and [...] |
||
|
24. Mastering Perspectives http://feedproxy.google.com/~r... download (audio/x-m4a, 0.00Mb) Description: This talk is about mastering perspectives. It assumes that someone capable of seeing more perspectives is better informed, and more able to act appropriately, happily, and well. There are many perspectives to any situation. Every moment there is your point of view, someone else’s point of view, and third person perspective as well. There are [...] |
||
|
25. The Problem With Self Protection http://feedproxy.google.com/~r... download (audio/x-m4a, 0.00Mb) Description: Our self is more than partially defined by the assumptions and beliefs we hold about the world. Our emotions arise as that self rubs up against it’s edges. Emotions often tell us when our boundaries, or self, have been compromised. There is no doubt that we need to work on our understanding of emotions. Teachings [...] |
||
|
26. Introduction to Transparency http://feedproxy.google.com/~r... download (audio/x-m4a, 0.00Mb) Description: When something is transparent it is able to be seen through. In this talk I make an effort to show the link between transparency and awareness, making the assumption that awareness is healthy. Transparency is an idea that can be applied to any system to allow that system to behave healthily and naturally. Systems mentioned [...] |
||
|
27. We May Need To Kill Faith http://feedproxy.google.com/~r... download (audio/x-m4a, 0.00Mb) Description: How can we make faith make sense? So many of us are lost in rational minds. Rational minds that are right in the external sense of “right”, but they lack the inner connection to being. Faith is something that often sounds too “religious”. But faith may end up being important, but maybe we need to [...] |
||
|
28. Dive In or Drop It http://feedproxy.google.com/~r... download (audio/x-m4a, 0.00Mb) Description: This talk is inspired by the question: In meditation, do we dive into frustration when it arises or do we drop it? I use this question to do an overview of meditation, and then answer at the end. Meditation is really about state management. We are trying to foster a better state of mind. To [...] |
||
|
29. Learn To Surrender http://feedproxy.google.com/~r... download (audio/x-m4a, 0.00Mb) Description: Surrender means to give oneself over to something. The type of surrender I’m discussing in this talk is not a sign of weakness, in fact, it might be the greatest sign of strength. The ego doesn’t usually like to hear about giving in or surrendering, but one of the greatest teachings we can learn is [...] |
||
|
30. Goals That Make Us Happy http://feedproxy.google.com/~r... download (audio/x-m4a, 0.00Mb) Description: This show references an article in American Psychologist titled “Mental Balance and Well-Being – Building Bridges Between Buddhism and Western Psychology”. The idea of this talk is that goals, in and of themselves, are not bad things; but that choosing goals wisely is very important. When a sense of dissatisfaction is our reality how do [...] |
||
|
31. Realizing We Have Enough http://feedproxy.google.com/~r... download (audio/x-m4a, 0.00Mb) Description: It makes sense that people who don’t have much feel a sense of lack. It doesn’t make as much sense that people who have tons of stuff, lots of money and means, also feel lack. One point of this talk is that the sense of external lack is driven by an internal lack. If we [...] |
||
|
32. Informed Morality http://feedproxy.google.com/~r... download (audio/x-m4a, 0.00Mb) Description: This talk is about how non-dual experience can inform our morality. It was inspired by a magazine article that painted non-duality as morally irresponsible. Non-duality is not irresponsible. In fact, it can deeply inform our morality. What is morality? Morality defines and distinguishes between right and wrong. Our own history and belief systems are where [...] |
||
|
33. Means to an End http://feedproxy.google.com/~r... download (audio/x-m4a, 0.00Mb) Description: In this podcast we have a fist fight at a gun show. Two men, both deeply interested in safety, take very different stances on how to achieve that goal. One, having been mugged and beaten before feels as though having a gun will offer him safety. The other man, losing his son to a gun [...] |
||
|
34. Connecting to the Vine http://feedproxy.google.com/~r... download (audio/x-m4a, 0.00Mb) Description: How do we remember what to do when we feel lost in our daily lives? Metaphor can be a great teaching tool to anchor ideas into our reality. “Connecting to the vine” is a great way to describe connection to oneness. What happens when a leaf gets cut away from a vine? It tends to [...] |
||
|
35. Shining Light on the Shadow http://feedproxy.google.com/~r... download (audio/x-m4a, 0.00Mb) Description: Part of evolving as a human being, and part of the teaching that I’m trying to promote, is about bringing awareness to all the aspects of our lives. One of the big accomplishments in psychology has been identifying and naming what’s been called the shadow. To understand the shadow we’ll try to describe a fictional [...] |
||
|
36. Turning Subject Into Object http://feedproxy.google.com/~r... download (audio/x-m4a, 0.00Mb) Description: Turning subject into object is both a concept and a practice. In this talk I discuss the difference between inner and outer experience and how that relates to subjective and objective experience. We need to define perspective – subjective experience is what I identify as “me”. Objects exist within my awareness, but are not “me”. [...] |
||
|
37. A New Kind of Judgement http://feedproxy.google.com/~r... download (audio/x-m4a, 0.00Mb) Description: There are two types of judgement or choice, and it is a mistake to make either of them bad. In this talk I will describe the two kinds of choice, introducing a new kind of judgement. Many people in the spiritual community condemn judgement. They’ve had experiences where they saw the freedom in not judging [...] |
||
|
38. Honoring Imbalance http://feedproxy.google.com/~r... download (audio/x-m4a, 0.00Mb) Description: In this show I discuss honoring imbalance. Many people (including myself) critique the world and describe the need for “balance” (listen to my last show, I use that very term). This talk discusses three ideas: The first idea is that everything is in a state of achieving balance. Every action has an equal and opposite [...] |
||
|
39. Getting to the Beauty http://feedproxy.google.com/~r... download (audio/x-m4a, 0.00Mb) Description: This talk is really an exercise looking at the split between internal/external, and thinking/experiencing. I discuss the words below and ask you to identify with each word as I do. thinking experiencing form feeling outer inner external internal different similar motion stillness time now attachment freedom expectation actual them us you we disconnect awareness First [...] |
||
|
40. This Path is Not Easy http://feedproxy.google.com/~r... download (audio/x-m4a, 0.00Mb) Description: Everyone listening to a podcast like this is trying to better themselves. I want to commend all of you for trying to do that. This work is difficult, and not enough teachers say that’s the case. Many sell this path as an easy fix for people. It can often be very difficult. Meditation is hard. [...] |
||
|
41. The Pleasure Pain Treadmill http://feedproxy.google.com/~r... download (video/quicktime, 0.00Mb) Description: Basic ideas: Seeing that good and bad, or pleasure and pain are in all things. We can use pain to promote change. Ultimately, we can get off the treadmill of pain and pleasure. Our desire to avoid pain and experience pleasure tends to push us around if we are not paying attention. When we use [...] |
||
|
42. Finding the Similarity http://feedproxy.google.com/~r... download (video/quicktime, 0.00Mb) Description: It would help us greatly if we decided to look at others for our similarities instead of for our differences. It is very natural to see someone of different color, or ideas, and focus only on the differences. In this show I discuss some examples of how we focus on the differences, and how things [...] |
||
|
43. The Next Evolution of Man http://feedproxy.google.com/~r... download (video/quicktime, 0.00Mb) Description: Today I want to discuss evolution. There are many ways to think about evolving: Individual evolution, societal evolution, human evolution Evolutions like Homo Erectus to Homo Sapien, etc. Agricultural age, to Industrial Age, to Information age An individual growing through identification with self to identification with society etc. A good definition of evolution is this: [...] |

Today I spend a few moments fostering presence with you. I open with a couple of conscious breaths, then onto examples of, and reasons for, bringing your focus back to your breath. I end mentioning that in regard to any learning, we deeply need to [...] |
||
|
45. Are We Stuck In Time http://feedproxy.google.com/~r... download (video/quicktime, 0.00Mb) Description: In this talk I describe why we seem to be stuck in time, and what an enlightened mind might look like. If we have the fundamental understanding that there is only this moment; meaning we cannot leave it to go elsewhere, or more specifically that time is a construct of thought, we can start to [...] |
||
|
46. Making Changes – Intention, Hypnosis, NLP, Goal Setting http://feedproxy.google.com/~r... download (audio/mpeg, 0.00Mb) Description: On the level of self and accomplishment, as we learn how our mind works, we can begin to use tools to achieve change and betterment in our lives. We can learn to focus better, make more money, lose weight, eat better, etc. Not only that, we can use the same tools to further our meditation [...] |
||
|
47. Why We Can’t Hold On To Stillness http://feedproxy.google.com/~r... download (audio/mpeg, 0.00Mb) Description: In this talk I want to discuss what might be our biggest challenge. To find a state of stillness, and remain productive in the world. How do we accomplish, while remaining present. Why are most of us unable to hold on to stillness? Many of us can find stillness, but why isn’t it easier to [...] |
||
|
48. Dealing with Death – Ours and Others http://feedproxy.google.com/~r... download (audio/mpeg, 0.00Mb) Description: We lose loved ones all the time. We hope for an afterlife. The self wants to grow and be powerful and young. It is completely opposed to it’s own extinction. So there is fear and panic around the thought of death for many. In fact, many people can’t even discuss it. But all living things [...] |
||
|
49. Ending Addiction For Good http://feedproxy.google.com/~r... download (audio/mpeg, 0.00Mb) Description: We’re going to discuss what addiction is, and then talk about how we can come to terms with it and what can we do to stop it. To do this, I’ll talk about addiction, in broad terms. Then we’ll do a quick exercise that might help you find what your addictions are. This could be [...] |
||
|
50. Can We Make It All Sacred http://feedproxy.google.com/~r... download (audio/mpeg, 0.00Mb) Description: If we want to evolve it would be good to learn that everything is sacred. Using certain objects to wake up is useful, but we need to watch how attached to those objects, places, etc. we become. What good comes from making things sacred? It is normal to notice certain things as more orderly or [...] |
||
|
51. The Pressure We Create http://feedproxy.google.com/~r... download (audio/mpeg, 0.00Mb) Description: We create pressure in our lives unconsciously that can end up making us very unhappy. Some of these pressures are deeper and some are more superficial. One person creates a "have to" situation with accomplishments he/she wants to create at work. Someone else on a daily basis sets up to-do after to-do and then feels [...] |
||
|
52. What Does Paradox Have To Do With It http://feedproxy.google.com/~r... download (audio/mpeg, 0.00Mb) Description: Question I’d really like answered for a future talk: What, if anything, would be the best thing humans could do to make the world a better place? Please leave an answer as a comment to this blog or email me directly.In this talk we explore paradoxes and logic and point out where we’ll find them [...] |
||
|
53. Doing It In The Now http://feedproxy.google.com/~r... download (audio/mpeg, 0.00Mb) Description: It seems many people want to get the idea of what enlightenment looks like. We’re all trying to "figure it out." I get many emails discussing understanding these ideas. This podcast is about doing them instead. The "Now" has become very trendy. So let’s not get lost in ideas about it. We even have great [...] |
||
|
54. Expectation vs. Experience http://feedproxy.google.com/~r... download (audio/mpeg, 0.00Mb) Description: Important thought: The gap between our experience and our expectation is our unhappiness. Experience is what’s happening to us. Expectation is what we’d like to happen to us. How many people do you know who live in a state of almost constant disappointment over their life situation? They are simply comparing what they experience to [...] |
||
|
55. You Can’t Kill God http://feedproxy.google.com/~r... download (audio/mpeg, 0.00Mb) Description: This is a talk about fear and fear based teaching. Any teacher that offers fear should be watched very closely. There is nothing to fear. You cannot kill god. The death of bird, the Exxon spill, 911, tsunami’s and hurricanes, all of it can’t kill god. We may not understand it, but it is OK. [...] |
||
|
56. What Really Makes You Happy http://feedproxy.google.com/~r... download (audio/mpeg, 0.00Mb) Description: Happiness comes from being. All the things we enjoy (dancing, drinking, drugging, driving cars, watching sports, etc.), the parts of those things that bring joy are the "being" parts. So what this means is that the things we chase don’t bring us joy or bliss. We already have happiness inside us, we just need to [...] |
||
|
57. How Committed Are You http://feedproxy.google.com/~r... download (audio/mpeg, 0.00Mb) Description: Making any kind of change is very difficult when we aren’t truly committed to it. So what is commitment and how do we find it? I see people use meditation and become spiritual all the time to feel better when they are sad. But they often drop the practice once things get better. Finding commitment [...] |
||
|
58. The Different Meanings of To Be http://feedproxy.google.com/~r... download (audio/mpeg, 0.00Mb) Description: I want to clarify what I mean by “to be” because it is actually more than one thing. It is both “to be – still” and also “to be – what you are.” This may be hard to stomach because these seem to be in opposition, but they are both really important. It’s actually many [...] |
||
|
59. Turning Anger into Compassion http://feedproxy.google.com/~r... download (audio/mpeg, 0.00Mb) Description: Anger has it’s place. It is there to move us. It tells us things aren’t right. But we don’t want to get lost in anger. We need to be conscious of it. Compassion means: Deep awareness of the suffering of another coupled with the wish to relieve it. There are two phases to turning anger [...] |
||
|
60. Language is a Lie http://feedproxy.google.com/~r... download (audio/mpeg, 0.00Mb) Description: This talk is about the box of language. The main point is that since we are all one, when we create the separate reality (the one to talk about), we are “lying” to ourselves. Language creates a box of agreement. But we are still separated by perspective. A smaller point but something we tend to [...] |
||
|
61. You Don’t Have to Fix It http://feedproxy.google.com/~r... download (audio/mpeg, 0.00Mb) Description: As we grow and consciously evolve, we will find wisdom in many situations. However, we should watch how attached to those opinions we become. We often will want to tell other people how to be, and get very attached to what is "supposed" to happen. The main point of this talk is that once you [...] |
||
|
62. How to Stop Worrying http://feedproxy.google.com/~r... download (audio/mpeg, 0.00Mb) Description: Worry has become an epidemic. We seem to almost always have a background sense of worry. Worry means to feel uneasy or concerned about something; to be troubled; to cause to feel anxious, or distressed. All worry is the same thing and we need to learn what it really is: An irrational habit of imagining [...] |
||
|
63. From Form to Feeling http://feedproxy.google.com/~r... download (audio/mpeg, 0.00Mb) Description: What is the definition of form? I’m not sure I’ve seen as many different definitions for a word before. On dictionary.com there are twelve different definitions before moving into forming and other variations of the word. So what I’ll do is try to tell you how I mean it here… In the total of experience, [...] |
||
|
64. The Paradox of Change http://feedproxy.google.com/~r... download (audio/mpeg, 0.00Mb) Description: A talk about impermanence.Mentioned that pain comes when we try to hold on to things that can’t be held onto: relationships, jobs, hopes. In holding onto those ideas, we are not free to appreciate the true quality of being. We aren’t able to appreciate that everything is change. We try to create a ground where [...] |
||
|
65. Guided Meditation – Sort Of http://feedproxy.google.com/~r... download (audio/mpeg, 0.00Mb) Description: Meditation is the realization of this moment. The “practice of meditation” is the sitting down to work on this before it becomes fully natural to live that way. To abstract it further, we can use anchors such as counting, visualization, and pointed awareness to help bring our attention to our breath. I’d like you to [...] |
||
|
66. The Gift of Trauma http://feedproxy.google.com/~r... download (audio/mpeg, 0.00Mb) Description: Trauma is horrible, and we shouldn’t forget that. We all have trauma to one degree or another. We all have “our stuff.” Trauma has the potential to widen and deepen our experience of pain. Which allows us to have a higher “high.” Imagine someone who hasn’t had much stimulation in either direction, good or bad. [...] |
||
|
67. The Human Condition – An Overview http://feedproxy.google.com/~r... download (audio/mpeg, 0.00Mb) Description: What is the human condition? Humanity seems quite insane. What is the root of that insanity? Our core problem is the fact that we feel separate. We are ego, but we are not only ego. We need to evolve into the realization that we are much more than that. There are two parts to that [...] |
||
|
68. The World Is Your Body http://feedproxy.google.com/~r... download (audio/mpeg, 0.00Mb) Description: This is an advanced talk. Many people may find this content weird, but I’m serious when I say that the world is your body. We’re trying to learn to look at the world differently. This is very literally a different way to look at the world. It’s a shift in consciousness. Normal subject/object consciousness has [...] |
||
|
69. Nationalism and Levels of Identification http://feedproxy.google.com/~r... download (audio/mpeg, 0.00Mb) Description: Consciousness expands from being an infant through different identifications with social groups. The highest level on average is the national level. We identify with our family, our neighborhood, our state, our nation. Why not our world and beyond? When survival of the team or family depends on loyalty, it is important that we are able [...] |
||
