Getting Unstuck from Our Hindrances (2020)

11-22-20

The path of Dharma practice and meditation isn’t always a smooth journey. Even as our mindfulness and self awareness grows, our progress on the path may be impeded by factors such as self doubt, wrong views, unresolved personal issues, or other obstacles. Seeing and skillfully overcoming these challenges will enable us to reap the fruits of our spiritual journey: a mind that is awake, clear, compassionate and wise.

In this talk from the three-day on-line retreat "Getting Unstuck: Meeting the Challenges of Practice", Fred shares with us how to identify common obstacles and investigate the places where we get stuck. Fred teaches us how to let go of wrong assumptions about ourselves and practice, release self-defeating behaviors and ineffective strategies, and energize our practice with new commitment, self-awareness and diligence.
