This is a great read. It clarified some stuff for me on non-duality, and dare I say that the instructions (on "the mental move") are effective.

Hello beautiful travelers. I just wanted to drop the link to this site here in our community. There are many talks hosted here that I find/have found essential on this journey.

If you’re interested, I suggest looking at talks from Tara Brach, Rob Burbea, Oren Jay Sofer, Jack Kornfield, and Sharon Salzberg to start.

If you’ve used this site before, please share your favorite talks and teachers in this thread!

I just wanted to say hello and that I'm looking forward to engaging in this community. I lurked over on the other site's community, and it was not always...helpful. I've been meditating every day for maybe a full year now, but feel like there is a long journey still to go. I hope you're all having a good day/night! (Also hoping I can see posts/comments in my masto app, fingers crossed.)

I find this an excellent book by the late ex-neuroscientist and meditation adept, that illustrates how the mind works and distils the core of Buddhist meditation into easy to follow steps - the medtiation practice, as always, is the challenge to progress.

I have some The Mind Illuminated guided meditation audio files created by a meditation teacher if anyone is interested.

Has anyone used the book?

Some very soothing meditations in varied styles. All available for free sharing under Creative Commons CC-by-nc-sa.

A lot of the people from the other network will come here sooner or later, so I decided to create a small calm place for all of us. :)

It's my first time moderating anything that has any potential, so I'm happy to receive constructive feedback.

Cheers!
