- In this dharma talk from 1986, Jack Kornfield explores a few truths about life that are really all we need to know, and how our direct experiences of these truths lead to freedom.
All We Need to Know
Through poetry, stories, and quotes, Jack weaves a tapestry that reflects back the great mystery of life. These are confusing times, and it’s hard to know what to believe. Jack explores how there are just a few simple truths in life - that things change, that each moment contains both light and darkness, that opinions are fleeting - which are really all we need to know.
“The One Who Knows has found what it is like to live in the reality of the present. And it’s very, very simple.” - Jack Kornfield
(19:14) Open-Hearted Presence
Jack talks about how these simple, direct experiences of truth are what lead to freedom. He explores how all Buddhist teachings are directed back to living in the reality of the present, and how we need to take on the practice of letting go. Life is really about seeing with the heart, living each moment with an open-hearted presence, and bringing compassion to every situation.
“Just to sit with what’s true, to let one’s heart open and one’s body open and one’s mind open, we can do that. There’s a vulnerability to it, but also a tremendous grace, and a kind of strength to it.” - Jack Kornfield
(43:25) Awaken to Freedom
Jack explores how bizarre the mystery of life really is, why spiritual practice is not about self-improvement but about awakening, the grace of great teachers, and the honor of truly living out our birthrights. He ends the talk with a brief meditation and some chanting.
“If you were true to your highest understanding, true to your heart’s deepest values, what would that ask of you at this time in your life? If you let yourself look clearly, you can let yourself know.” - Jack Kornfield

Jack is the best friend anyone could ever have. He is genuine, real, honest, true. My life is better, my heart wiser, for having found him.
I'm with you on that one. He is a fine companion during those moments in the day when we need spiritual input and also just food for thought - seasoned with a bit of humour!

I love you Jack ,your voice calms me ,reassures me and reminds me to balance being in the world ,doing my duty but not of it ...to let go and rise above the mundane passing struggles of a single mom of 4.❤ Ever so grateful to you and Ram Das
Thank you so much fir your wisdom ! 🙏🏽
We were asked to care for each other!🙏❣️💫
Thankyou Jack
From 1986, but still as true as it ever was 💖
Thank you
My heart is glowing and open when I listen to your talks. Thank you Jack.
It is indeed hard to know what to believe? Trust your own heart's knowing, test it in your own direct experience instead of acquiring external beliefs from myriad sources; also listen to the wisdom of the awake ones like Jack!
Namaste! My husband says the same thing over and over. I was in established religion for many years but when l met him 2 years ago, I began to follow my heart and my inner, higher self! I now live in pure love and light for all and all things. 💜
I just lost the love of my life; beautiful man but he was doing one thing that was hurting me, so I walked away. I was close to his children too. We loved each other. But when he died they’ve refused to talk to me; all of them. So in their eyes, I have no standing to grieve, miss him, think of him. So I grieve literally alone, like we never belonged together.I let go.
🙇♂️❤🌻🙏
Light and Love Surrounds You.
There's never any comments here. Perhaps it speaks to the people who watch these videos. Thank you Jack, I'd love to come to one of your retreats some day.
never?😂

why so much laughter..?? Are they taking in the lessons or waiting for the jokes..??
Did you see Jack smiling? Or people smiling at Jack?
Something about the timing…as if not really listening to the story, just laughing for the fun of it, which is ok, I guess, but kind of steps on the meaning of the story. 🤷♀️
If it needs explaining.... Na me stay :)
