Living Clarity

Kadam Morten talks about how to make sure our relationships are not just harmonious but an opportunity for spiritual growth. Our relationships, even the most challenging ones, become powerful tools for transformation when we understand the benefit of having those challenges in our life. Then, every interaction becomes an opportunity to grow, turning life itself into a meaningful journey toward inner freedom and lasting happiness.

In this talk given at Tara KMC Dublin, Kadam Adam Starr encourages us to find balance in our lives—particularly the balance between inner and outer development. He explains that it is through finding this balance that we gain the ability to enjoy our good conditions and achievements, develop harmonious relationships, and, especially, the strength to deal with life’s challenges.

In this podcast, we explore the profound question: Are the body and mind one and the same? Drawing on the logical insights of the Buddha, we examine how the body and mind are, in fact, distinct entities. Understanding this difference can transform the way we experience and live our lives. Join us as we reflect on compelling reasons and everyday examples that reveal the separation between body and mind.

Gen Demo illustrates the difference between deluded pride and genuine confidence, revealing three essential forms of self-confidence: in our potential, in our positive actions, and in our ability to overcome obstacles. Through these insights, we learn to cultivate a stable mind free from arrogance or self-doubt.

In this talk Gen Devi shows how our self-centered view is at the heart of our experiences of stress. She encourages us to go beyond surface-level stress triggers and explore the deeper mental habits related to grasping at the self, to see how we create the inner tension and unhappiness we experience as stress.
