  Devon Hase: Peace and Stillness: On Passaddhi and Equanimity

  Aug 19, 202640 min

  (Various) A talk on tranquility as its own awakening factor, not a lesser cousin of joy or concentration. We look at how calm arises naturally out of a happy mind that knows how to let go, what it actually feels like in the body, and how it matures into the absorption of samadhi and, further still, into a stillness governed by equanimity rather than effort.

  Devon Hase: Niramisa Sukha: On Unworldly Pleasant Feeling

  Aug 17, 202646 min

  (Various) A talk on unworldly pleasant vedana — the kind of ease and contentment that doesn't depend on anything going right. We trace how letting go registers in the body as pleasure before the mind has words for it, and learn to stay with it, let it spread, and receive it rather than manufacture it.

  Devon Hase: I Will Not Abandon Myself

  Aug 8, 202639 min

  (Refuge of Belonging) What does it mean to truly keep a vow to ourselves? Devon Hase explores *adhiṭṭhāna*—the cultivation of resolve—as both the courage to stay with what is difficult and the wisdom to soften, surrender, and listen when pushing harder becomes its own form of self-abandonment.
