Resting: A Spiritual Practice

04/20/2024
In this talk, given at Beginner's Mind Temple, Kiku Christina Lehnherr discusses the dharma implications and importance of rest. By being with and clearly seeing the true nature of our bodies and experience, we can allow the fundamental calm of the world to show us what true rest is. Modern culture in the United States has no pause button, but true rest is necessary for healing and growth. As Christina says, “Rest is not a luxury. Rest is an absolute necessity if we want to stay and be and deepen our connection to our own being, to the intrinsic Buddha nature that lives in us - which is, by its nature, completely connected to everything in this universe - to the full humanness that we have been born into as a possibility.”
