The Gift of Generosity - Exploring the Teachings of Dana: November 2023

Marieke Duijvestijn and Chris van der Velden offered ID practice for Sunday Sangha on November 5, 2023. The practice is on Dana and meditative qualities.
The Buddha advised to start with dana.
Because the practice of dana works against craving, the cause of suffering.
Two contemplations in dyads:
Guidelines: pause, relax, open.
1. Investigating the dana of speaking and listening: is there grasping or clinging now? Exploring the body and the feeling tone
2. Investigating a situation in daily life where you practiced dana: was it real dana or was there (subtle) grasping or clinging? Exploring the body and the feeling tone while speaking and listening.
