Longing to Belong: Bringing Presence through the Three Refuges

Longing to Belong - Spiritual practice reveals our belonging through bringing presence to three gateways: the aliveness of the present moment, loving relatedness, and the openness and lucidity of awareness itself. This talk includes guided meditations in exploring each gateway. It ends with the community chanting of Om, a mantra of connectedness - an expression of belonging. NOTE: a talk from the archives 2009-12-09 reflecting on the "Three Refuges."
