You may listen to Gil’s talks on Audio Dharma.“People will say, 'Oh she realized a really deep enlightenment'. But how often do you hear someone say 'oh I got compassioned' or 'that person, he reached the fourth stage of compassion, he was fully compassioned'? I think we all need more compassion than enlightenment—if we want to separate the two. If we don't separate the two, then compassion has to be an integral part of it." – Gil Fronsdal See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

  • Ep. 205 - This Life Giving Breath, Guided Meditation with JoAnna Hardy
    Apr 25 2025

    Returning to the refuge of breath that is present from birth to death, JoAnna Hardy guides listeners through a grounding and connective breath-based practice.

    Today’s podcast is brought to you by BetterHelp. Give online therapy a try at betterhelp.com/beherenow and get on your way to being your best self.

    In this practice-infused episode, JoAnna guides listeners through:

    • The first foundation of mindfulness, according to the Buddha
    • Whole-body awareness and inviting our body fully into the practice
    • The individuality of each breath and becoming familiar with our breath
    • Remembering that the breath is always with us, from birth to death
    • Finding calm, peace, energy, rapture, and joy within the breath
    • Becoming completely interested in each one of our inhales and exhales
    • Our exhale as the connection between us and nature, us and all beings
    • Landing in the rhythm of the breath and allowing it to rock you
    • Letting the breath be our home base and refuge when our mind wanders during practice
    • Becoming aware of sensations on and in our body via the throughline of the breath
    • Feeling the body rather than thinking about your body
    • Exploring practice one breath at a time, one bodily sensation at a time, with curiosity

    “What they found with the LSD art, some of the precise craftsmanship that these artists normally had suffered a bit, but it had greater aesthetic value, greater imagination, more evidence of abstract perceptions.” – Raymond Turpin

Stand Up Comedy Hour

This was a huge disappointment. I love this man but there are so many little jokes, and the crowd is just cackling along. Especially one particular lady who constantly laughs so loud, like it's the first joke she's ever heard.

So anyway, we get to the end where it's finally serious, and he just gives this basic, run of the mill breathing exercise. Disappointing.
