Episode 42: Inherent Perfection

October 30, 2013

In this episode, Reggie explains how meditating in an embodied way allows our lives to flow freely. We are used to thinking that we are never enough — that we are lacking in so many ways. The practice of meditation gives rise humor and joy, through the insight that our situation is actually always abundant and perfect just as is it is. The tantric approach of somatic meditation dismantles our doubt, frees us from the fetters of thinking, and allows us to receive the inherent blessing within each moment. We see how life is a river that flows through us, unencumbered and without boundary, as a profound expression of beauty and love.

This talk was given at the 2010 Winter Dathun — a month-long retreat held at the Blazing Mountain Retreat Center in Crestone, Colorado. To download more of Reggie’s teachings and to explore a variety of recorded talks and practices to assist you on your spiritual journey, please visit our store.
