Devon Hase: Whatever Arises, Ceases: Impermanence from Stardust to This Breath (Retreat at Spirit Rock) Oct 15, 2026

Show notes

(Spirit Rock Meditation Center) At the moment of his awakening, Kondañña saw that whatever arises also passes away. This talk explores impermanence at three scales: the vast span of geologic and cosmic time, the arc of our own aging and mortality, and the moment-to-moment flicker of experience. Drawing on the suttas, poetry, and stories from practice, we look at how assuming permanence shapes our lives, and how seeing through it can open into awe, gratitude, and the freedom of letting go.

Amma Thanasanti: The Hidden Intelligence of Anger Oct 15, 2026

Show notes

(Insight Meditation Community of Berkeley) A talk on The Hidden Intelligence of Anger - What is your anger trying to tell you? Anger may look like one thing, but it can arise from very different conditions. Anger rooted in violated boundaries is communicating something different from anger arising from grief, fear, shame, attachment wounds, injustice, or the frustration of not getting what we want. Because the conditions are different, each calls for a different response—and each can open into a different possibility for freedom. Rather than simply managing anger, expressing it, or trying to let it go, this talk explores what becomes possible when we learn to listen more precisely. What is this anger responding to? What is it protecting? What is it asking us to understand? Through meditation, teaching, and inquiry, we’ll explore anger as a doorway into greater discernment, choice, and freedom.
