Meditation Meditation Month 2024
Timeless teachings. Modern methods.
This possibility of awakening, of nirvana, is rarely spoken about. Do we feel that it's inaccessible, that we're not worthy, that this is reserved for an elite few? We would like to unpack this word, nirvana. Is it merely on some distant horizon, or is it something possible for each of us?
This was the Buddha's message: that every human heart, if infused with sincerity, with dedication, with commitment, can come to the same liberating understandings that the Buddha came to.
