2023-10-18 Bodhicitta - Der Geist des Erwachens (Schweizerdeutsch) 60:32
Bodhicitta - der Geist des Erwachens - ist die altruistische Motivation, für das Wohl aller Wesen zu praktizieren und zu erwachen. Diese wunderschöne Motivation befreit die Praxis von Selbstzentrierung und Instrumentalisierung und macht den Geist glücklich. Wir erkennen, dass wir einen wichtigen Beitrag zur Welt leisten können.

2023-10-17 Leerheit - eine Annäherung (Schweizerdeutsch) 59:07
Leerheit ist einer der wichtigsten, aber auch tiefgründigsten Begriffe im Buddhismus, denn die Einsicht in die Leerheit aller Phänomene befreit den Geist von Anhaftung und Ablehnung. Einfach zu sehen ist die Leerheit sozialer Konventionen. Traditionell wird Leerheit im Sinne der Abhängigkeit von Teilen und der Abhängigkeit von Bedingungen kontempliert.Die Einsicht in die Leerheit zeigt uns einen Mittelweg zwischen den Extremen von Nihilismus und Ewigkeitsglaube auf.
