AGOL 26, Ведомая медитация 3 — стенограмма

[Speaker 2]
Then please relax your forehead, and relax your eyes. Put out your chest, and straighten your back. Pulling your stomach slightly.

And try to come—oh, I'm sorry, check your cell phone. Then try to sit like a stone, like a statue. And come to your breath.

We'll watch our breath for a while, but during the watching the breath, please try to sit like a stone. And come to your breath. Watch.

Stay with your breath. Try to sit like a statue. Then please ask your teacher to come sit with you.

Knee to knee. And you can feel the warmth of your teacher.

[Speaker 1]
You can sense their heartbeat.

[Speaker 2]
And there's a beautiful fragrance of a flower coming from them. Then try to think of one quality about them that you love, something you would like to be. Something you would like to change about yourself.

Then think of something you did yesterday that was not so nice, and open your heart and show it to your lama. Then think of something you did that was very beautiful yesterday, and open your heart and show that to your teacher. Then with love, ask your teacher to continue teaching you.

And then ask them to stay close. Then yesterday we had, in the teaching, the lama talked about it's very good to have a strong meditation. And it's very good to study emptiness.

Very important. But then he said we should do something for our community. Like the service that people in Guadalajara are doing for elderly people, for the Huichol people who are sick, on the radio show.

So, some kind of service to your community. And then you're in a very well-balanced practice. And it shows that you understand karma.

So, we'll do a ten-minute meditation. Just quiet. Try to stay like a statue.

And try to think of something you could do for your community. If you live in Austria or Vienna, what can you do for people in Vienna?

[Speaker 1]
Or Berlin?

[Speaker 2]
Or Shanghai? Shenzhen? Rimrock?

Try to think of some small thing you can do regularly, just to help the people in your community. They are not Buddhist, and they don't know you're a Buddhist, but what's one thing you can do for them? And we'll stay here for ten minutes.

Try not to move for ten minutes. And watch your mind. If it starts to think about other things, then gently bring it back to how can I serve my community?

[Speaker 1]
Ten minutes. Then please do three slow, long exhales to send the karma to other people.

[Speaker 2]
Then you can slowly open your eyes. Take a stretch. Have some coffee.
