"You don't want to wait until you float out of your body when you die and look back and say, 'Wow, that was an amazing incarnation, wasn't it?' You actually want to have it now." – Jack Kornfield

In this fresh video episode, Jack blissfully illuminates:

The wisdom of the Music of the Spheres
Energies of the 2024 Solar Eclipse
Alan Watts on why 'life is like music'
The enlightening present moment
Harmonizing life's opposites like the Tao
Dancing with life's changing rhythms
To be married to amazement and mystery
The beautiful revelation of sudden awakening
Being at the still point of the turning world
Sudden realization, gradual practice, and Zen
Releasing from the body of fear
Buddha's gardening wisdom
The fruits of inner well-being

"That's what meditation does, it makes space. We step out of the thrall of our plans, thoughts, reactions, how it should be, what's happened, and what should happen; and out of the fears and the confusion, sadness, excitement, and all those things; and we become the space of loving awareness that says, 'Yes.' It's an act of love." – Jack Kornfield

This Dharma Talk originally took place 3/25/24 for Spirit Rock Meditation Center's Monday Night Dharma Talk and Meditation. Sign up for Jack's next one at JackKornfield.com/events
