Sit Down and Shut Up, episode 4: introduction to Dzogchen meditation.

The single most useful thing you will ever learn. A weekly 30 minute class introducing the practice of silent sitting. Right here, right now just might be the time to learn how to develop a meditation practice - the single most useful thing you will ever do for yourself and everyone around you. Through meditation practice we find our first real taste of freedom – freedom from conditioning. Meditation gets us back into the driver’s seat to live life – rather than having life live us. In the open space of clarity and compassion we find tremendous creative energy, spontaneity, and a zest for living.

This week Mé-tsal Wangmo and Ja’gyür Dorje talk more about distractions, and what the mind does when we try to meditate.
