Episode 20, Series 1: "Embracing Life with Wisdom & Compassion"
Featuring: Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche
In a live online teaching, Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche guides us in meeting any sense of apathy we may be experiencing with openness and warmth, clearing and opening the pathways to fuller, more joyful engagement in life. The broadcast marks the start of Month 11 in Rinpoche’s yearlong program, “Embracing Life with Wisdom & Compassion.” Free and open to all!
In his teaching, Rinpoche emphasizes the importance of facing challenges, cultivating joyful engagement, and paying attention to our emotions. He also touches on our potential for personal change, the significance of getting a good sleep, and the need to be mindful of engaging with social media and technology. He highlights the role of self-awareness and the power of meditation, particularly loving kindness meditation, in promoting personal growth and reducing stress.
In advance of the broadcast Rinpoche encourages creating a bit of space for meditation in your house — in a quiet, peaceful location where you can feel some sense of warmth and connection to yourself. You might provide a comfortable cushion to sit on, and a candle or stick of incense. A supportive outer space can support your inner space during meditation.
