Where Do We Find Our True Home?

The word “home” often evokes a kind of brick-and-mortar “place” where we can physically dwell. But in the Buddhist tradition, home or “refuge” is not something we find outside of ourselves, but instead directly within. In fact, it might be said that the entirety of our practice is aimed at training ourselves how to develop this place of “home” right here - in our own minds, bodies, and hearts. In this talk, we explore what is often called the 3 Refuges or Treasures of our practice.

Very clear exposure to the three jewels of Buddhism, with good examples of the intricacies of each…and I listened to it on the treadmill at the gym! 🤗👍💕

Thank you so much for this teaching. As I am grateful for this home I reside in, my view is so much more expanded and broadened. Thank you for this.

Beautiful teachings. I particularly love the story of you stopping in the midst of hurrying to rest your forehead on the beam and hearing the call of the owl. Thank you for your honesty and Many Blessings. 🕊

Welcome back! 🌟 what a privilege to hear this wonderful talk. Thank you.
