Day 3 is the Shakyamuni mantra. Shakyamuni is the name of the historical Buddha, Gautama, who lived in northern India two and half thousand years ago. He was a human being, like us, who through his own efforts gained a state of complete freedom called Awakening or Enlightenment. When we chant the Shakyamuni mantra we can bring to mind the Buddha’s wisdom and compassion. We can reflect that just as he found freedom, so can we. The mantra is chanted by the Songsters.

21 Day Meditation For Recovery - 3. Shakyamuni Mantra

The Good Eon, 5 March 2022, Online - Part 2

This sutra was initiated by Shakyamuni Buddha, at the end of a retreat in Vaishali. Present were monks, bodhisattvas, ghosts, nagas and rakshas: an audience of many different types of beings. Among them was a bodhisattva called Supreme Joy, who posed 17 questions concerning how a bodhisattva can help all sentient beings. These questions lead us outside the limits of conventional thinking, to consider what it means to have genuine compassion for the multiplicity of sentient beings. This eon is good because more than 1,000 Buddhas and more than 84,000 ways of accessing the truth will appear.

The inner practice of liberation is not an individual matter. One of the deepest realizations that comes when we meditate, as we pay attention, as we live a life of care and loving awareness, is the growing sense of interdependence. There is no separation between our body and the body of the earth. The minerals of the soil make up our wheat and our bones, the storm clouds become our
drinks and our blood, the oxygen from the trees and forests is the air we breathe. 

The human community is equally interconnected. If we meet together in harmony and respect, care for the vulnerable among us, tend to the environment, and respect our citizens and neighbors, we will thrive and prosper.

Wise Society Dharma Talk — Jack Kornfield

Over several years, to 2019, I re-edited Keith LeBlanc's classic "Major Malfunction" album to make it "full length", according to an imaginary concept in my head.

The full story, in gory detail, is here: https://jrbinks.wordpress.com/2019/12/28/major-malfunction-reimagined/

This is the first time I have made this full length, 2hr 16m version publicly available.  A 2hr edit was featured On The Wire in October 2019: https://otwradio.blogspot.com/2019/10/playlist-26th-october-2019.html

What did Keith think of it?  Well I told him I was doing it, he showed some interested and thanked me for asking his permission, but didn't respond when I sent him the final versions and other commentary.  So I don't know ... and now I never will.

In memory of Keith LeBlanc.

Dit is GERRIT. Een serie met verhalen over het leven van Rietveld. Nederland is een openluchtmuseum voor zijn werk. Van bushokje tot zomerhuis. En van villa tot muziekschool. Het Rietveld-Schröderhuis in Utrecht staat net als de Big Ben en de Eiffeltoren op de UNESCO Werelderfgoedlijst en zijn bekende stoel is te zien in musea over heel de wereld.  
In deze driedelige-serie onderzoek ik wie hij was, wat hem tot een geweldig architect maakt en wat hij heeft achtergelaten. Aflevering 1: Het Rietveld Schröderhuis.

GERRIT is een initiatief van De stijl in de stad. 
Research, interviews en montage: Babette Rijkhoff.
Productie: Marije Lieuwens. 
Techniek: Arno Peeters.

Met veel dank aan het Centraal Museum in Utrecht. Wil je de locaties uit de podcast bezoeken kijk dan op destijlindestad.nl/gerrit  en de download de kaart.

If You Could Touch Her at All

Today we share with you a recording of H.H. Drikung Kyabgön Chetsang Rinpoche reciting our third text in this well-being series, "Tārā Who Protects from the Eight Dangers," as well as one of Ani Jasmine reading the text in English.  

For Tibetan Buddhists, "Tārā Who Protects from the Eight Dangers" [https://read.84000.co/translation/toh731.html] is a prayer to the deity Tārā that describes the eight great dangers, and how Tārā's qualities and attributes can be beneficial to us all.  

As the pandemic continues, and environmental and social uncertainty rage around the world, we continue on with our Sūtras for Well-Being series to bring to you the texts traditionally recited for resilience and well-being in times of adversity, and the stories behind them.
