(Insight Meditation Society - Retreat Center) Cessation of Suffering coincides the realization of the end of suffering with the elimination of craving for sense pleasures, craving for existence and craving for non-existence. This is the practice toward ultimate final peace, Nibbana.
(Spirit Rock Meditation Center) The Buddha said the one reflection to always keep in mind is Impermanence, Anicca in Pali. When we have a deep understanding of impermanence we are more able to let go. However, there is an upside to impermanence too. No matter how difficult things are they will change. Often overlooked, this aspect of impermanence can give us courage and resolve in the face of hardship. Opening to the truth of impermanence deepens our capacity to be balanced in the face of change. This talk will explore this topic and how we can apply it in our lives.

(Seminarhaus Engl) Praxis im Alltag kann man gliedern in die drei Säulen, Großzügigkeit entfalten (dana), ethisch nicht verletzendes Verhalten auf allen Ebenen entwickeln (sila) und den Geist zu zähmen durch Sammlung, Achtsamkeit und Ausrichtung auf das Heilsame. Alle drei durchdringen einander. Tiefe Entwicklung ist ohne die anderen nicht möglich.
