  • Letting Go Is Hard to Do

    Letting Go Is Hard to Do
    Jun 22 2025

    The second noble truth addresses the cause of Dukkha (suffering) as our nature to cling to our desires (or push away that which we don't want). The opposite of this is letting go. Ajahn Chah, the venerable Thai forest monk and teacher to many of today's wonderful teachers-- would say often:
    Letting go a little brings a little peace. Letting go a lot brings a lot of peace. Letting go completely brings complete peace.
    And yet, letting go, is not always easy! Jon and Doug discuss this.

  • Practice as Refuge and Recharge

    Practice as Refuge and Recharge
    Jun 15 2025

    These are difficult times, and our practice can be a true refuge and an opportunity to recharge. However, it’s also possible for meditation to become a means of escaping or bypassing what’s happening in the world or our personal experiences. Ideally, true refuge recharges us and increases our capacity to face the world and with what Bhikkhu Bodhi calls “conscientious compassion.” Jon and Doug have a lively discussion about how our practice supports us in these times.
