In this lecture, Lama Jigmé discusses what real meditation is. Real meditation has nothing to do with temporarily feeling good. Feelings change continuously. In true meditation you are still disturbed by emotions and thoughts, but you are able to increasingly remain in a calm, stable and clear state of mind. This leads to recognition of your true essence, which is hidden under a continuous stream of thoughts, feelings and emotions. Just as the sun emerges from behind the clouds, bright and radiant.

Lama Jigmé is a practically minded teacher, averse to ’empty’ book wisdom and focused on direct experience. He has his own language full of humor and recognizable imagery to explain to you at all levels how the mind works and how you can investigate and calm it. The teachings are therefore suitable for both beginners on the meditation path and experienced meditation practitioners.

In addition to centuries of authentic meditation instructions passed on from teacher to student that have been proven effective, the teachings are also about ethics and how to live a good life.

The teaching The Path of Meditation is part of the Meditation Course, but can also be followed separately.
