Plumbing the Depths of Peace and Connection: Buddhist Dharma Talk with Pat Coffey

The Buddha may have been the greatest Psychologist of all time. In modern parlance, the G.O.A.T. He understood the workings and trappings of the mind. He understood how you suffer and developed a comprehensive path to alleviate it, or at the very least lessen it. He repeatedly said, “I teach one thing and one thing only, suffering and the end of suffering.”
The practices and perspective that he encouraged his students to try out do exactly that.
And that is only the beginning! The deepest ‘wellness’ goes far beyond the basic coping with life’s challenges and is available to everyone.
In this talk, we explore how your mindfulness practice not only supports you with the difficulties you encounter, but that it is the ‘stepping off platform’ to the most profound experience of deep peace and a loving connection to all of creation.
