Anapanasati 12: Gladness And Concentration

In this recording, we move further into contemplations of the mind, discussing the idea of gladness as a natural extension of our awareness of the mind, and the deepening of concentration that results from a loosening of the effects of the five hindrances on the mind.

These meetings can be joined live on Sunday evenings at 5:30 Eastern time. Google "Pittsboro Recovery Dharma" to find a zoom link.

It is hard for me to find guided meditations that I truly find helpful at this point on my path. This one is excellent for beginners and advanced practitioners alike. Although all aspects of this practice and all concepts are well known to me, in Sheldon’s voice and narrative style I feel deeply supported, and I’m able to let go of tensions and distractions more readily and fully. I perceive the presence of someone who has truly achieved deep peace and who truly knows contentment, free from hierarchical attachments to identities such as “spiritual teacher,” “awakened,” etc. Very highly recommended.

Moving on to the next steps. Marvelous instructions and love any references to Thay. Takes my practice deeper and is making it more fulfilling. Many thanks. ☮️💖🙏
