Meditation For Dark Times: Buddha In Glory

This guided meditation is inspired by Rainer Maria Rilke’s poem, Buddha In Glory. In this session, you are invited to find a sense of peace and light, even in the midst of life's darkest moments.

Rilke’s words remind us that, like the Buddha, we can cultivate an inner radiance that remains steady, even when the world around us feels shadowed. This meditation will guide you to connect with that inner light, helping you find strength and serenity within.

Through gentle guidance, you'll be encouraged to embrace the stillness and wisdom that lies at the core of your being. As you move through this practice, allow yourself to let go of fear and doubt, drawing instead on the deep well of peace that exists within you.
Let Rilke’s poetic inspiration guide you to a place of calm and clarity, where you can navigate the dark times with grace and resilience.

I love this poem. Is this the Stephen Mitchell version? So glad to hear it’s spoken this way. Yes, this is the ultimate meditation really, because this is the truth of who we really are. Also, I love Rilke.

Wonderful.
Once again, a powerful and profound practice.
I was fascinated by the feeling of being anchored to the present and at the same time of being so "expanded"...Thank you 🙏🙏🙏
