I recently lost my grandmother. I was extremely close with her and often times I feel like she was the foundation of all my inner peace. Lately I’ve been overwhelmed with grief. It’s in moments like these where I feel completely helpless, that I turn to your videos to re-center myself. Thank you for making these talks available for public viewing. I promise you this work doesn’t go unnoticed 🙏

[@noonespecial4171]

I believe this is things Arahants say dear Jayasara, it sweeps the world of the countless 'Meditation' videos out there leading nowhere. Sadhu! 🤗🙏🙏🙏

Thought 'I'll just see if anything has dropped'? Bang! 11 minutes after it dropped here I am. Thank you universe.

[@silviajastram9524]

This meditation is so minimalistic, yet right on the point! Thank you dear Jayasara for sharing your beautiful heart.

[@jimfollen1731]

I love the simple, yet powerful and direct nature of these teachings. Thank you Venerable Jaya.

[@meeraduttagupta6318]

It's like coming home ,no fear no restlessness, just peace ,silence and clarity of our real nature .Sadhu 3x

[@tracy9934]

Thank you sister. This meditation is one of the most direct and clear I’ve listened to. Some others from the mystics, while beautiful, can sometimes set the mind wandering/wondering. The concept of the heart has puzzled me over the years but now I know. I am home ❤️🙏❤️

This one is just the right length to listen to a couple of times during the day. To bring me back when I’m over invested in the daily illusion. Setting reminder alerts on phone now! Thanks 👍

BEAUTIFUL I SO LOVE YOUR POSTS! YOU ARE MY ANGEL ❤

[@tyanite1]

In more than 11 years of meditation, I have never experienced anything resembling a still point. But thanks all the same for a beautiful meditation.

[@SamaneriJayasara]

That's because it's not an experience. It is the essence of Being itself, of what you truly are. Life itself in its raw nakedness. Present in every living being. It is unmistakable and unmissable...eventually.

[@SarahDale111]

When I'm out walking, I notice the body moving and the world going by, but the awareness in which it is all appearing is perfectly still. It feels as though I am not moving, and that it is the world that is moving through me.

[@Always-There]

For me the easiest way to identify the Still Point was to listen with the Heart, rather than the ears. Like when rain falls on a tin roof and you experience it in a wider sense than just the sound. Be quietly aware and feel it within. It’s easily overlooked, (it’s almost too obvious) so don’t be afraid to trust what you find - but hold on to it and return as often as you can. It soon becomes a sanctuary that you can instantly drop into whenever the world gets a bit overwhelming. Don’t be concerned about the actual name, it has many, yet is not of this world, whereas names are, so all names are just pointers. 🙂

There is a time, turn turn turn …. Thank you for such an extraordinary meditation. I was not looking for this meditation, but quite happy i found it. Or perhaps it found me. A small step towards liberation is always welcome.

[@mervynjd]

Thank you dear soul for this beautiful meditation. You have a lovely soothing voice and way of relaying the technique. It really helped me to go the deepest I have been able to for a long time. Your kindness is much appreciated. Much love to you.

10:06 p.m. Oops, Wesak is the NEXT full moon, May 23rd. This Stillpoint meditation feels so much like Wesak, that I thought, oh yay! 🎉 Wesak is just about here! Even though there's still a month to go, this year instead of the festival lasting 3 days before and after Wesak, I will be celebrating Buddha's return a month before and a month following May 23rd. If ever our world needs Peace 🕊️ and plenty of it, the time is NOW.

Dear Friend, good way to start the day. I wonder..... could one say that The Field holds Dukka but the Still Point does not? (pondering the dukka lately) ⊙
