Tere Abdala-Romano: Transition From Settling to Seeing (Retreat at Spirit Rock)
Update: 2025-10-30
Description
(Spirit Rock Meditation Center) This talk explores the gentle transition from shamatha (calm abiding through concentration) to vipassanā (insight), inviting us to cultivate stillness not through effort but through nourishment, (as The Budha did) curiosity, and kindness. It reminds us that the mind’s obstacles—dullness and agitation—are gateways to balance and presence. From this grounded calm, clarity naturally arises, revealing the truth of impermanence, unsatisfactoriness, and non-self. In resting with things as they are, stillness ripens into seeing, and seeing reveals freedom.
