Disarming our Hearts: Guidance from the Bodhisattva Path, Part 1 - Tara Brach

If we realized how profoundly our chronic judgment creates separation and blocks the flow of love, we’d dedicate more deeply to disarming our hearts. Drawing on practices from the Bodhisattva path, these two talks explore the process of disarming—bridging divides with those close in, and opening our hearts to those at a distance who we consider a ‘bad other” or enemy. As we cultivate the capacity for true disarming, we experience a growing sense of belonging, Oneness and the freedom of an awakened heart.

    Tara always brings me back into a softness I aspire to sustain. Thanks Tara for your steady leadership in tenderness, compassion, and peace.
  • i was "disowned" by my father because I got a divorce - he didn't speak to me for two years. I traveled to my home town to visit my grandparents and my mother. Mother told me that Dad would like to see me, perhaps I might make enchiladas for dinner. I did, he came in and said, "I like your hair cut." We had a meal together, then he went out to practice night landing in his small plane, with my 14-year-old brother. They crashed into a corn field and he died. Thankfully he died with a forgiving heart.
