Where Stillness Waits: Beyond Circumstantial Calm

from Meditation and Beyond · host Elliott S. Dacher, M.D.

Send us Fan MailWe have all experienced moments of circumstantial calmness – whether through a relaxing walk in nature, immersion in art and beauty, or through music, yoga, intimacy, meditation, and other such events that can calm mind and body. These moments offer a respite from the overactive mind, afflictive emotions, and daily challenges. We seek out these desirable circumstances, valuing them greatly. However, all circumstances are impermanent. They may last moments or longer, but their nature is transient. In time they will pass. Why? Because all phenomena and experience are transitory. When circumstances change so does our mental state – more calm, less calm, no calm, or back to our usual stress. Circumstance-based calmness, while pleasant and helpful, is fragile and fleeting. Join me in this Podcast to explore how circumstantial can be replace by a pervasive and stable serenity. Support the showWelcome to my PodcastsOn my website below you will find many resources and a sign-up link to our Sunday morning Zoom teaching and meditation.
