Jack invites us to stop fighting what is and begin bowing to it—awakening the timeless wisdom and comionate heart of a Buddha, right here and now, in the midst of our joys, sorrows, and the suffering of the world.
This Dharma Talk recorded on 1/3/93 at Spirit Rock Meditation Center was originally published on DharmaSeed.
This week on Heart Wisdom, Jack gives perspectives on:
Evaluating our spiritual practice
Joanna Macy and healing the environment
The rollercoaster ride of meditation
Awakening right here and right now
The transformative power of bowing to it all
The Buddhas of all the universes
Suffering and the truth of Nirvana, timeless delight
Facing the reality of the human realm—joy and sorrow, birth and death
Looking at the difficulties facing the planet today—war, famine, racism, greed, environmental concerns
Stop fighting what is true; the end of denial
Bowing to suffering, attachment, and change
Insight—seeing things just as they are
"We awaken the wisdom and the great, comionate heart of a Buddha right where we are. Where else could it be?" – Jack Kornfield
