Meditation has many levels, but on the most profound level we can say that mediation is using the mind to skillfully and subtly recognize the essence and true nature of your mind.

In June 2009, as part of the events held for His Holiness the Dalai Lama’s teachings in Amsterdam, Sogyal Rinpoche gave a memorable talk on Finding Peace and Stability in a Troubled World to an audience of thousands.

In this is the second half of that talk, Rinpoche explains the deeper aspects of meditation as a way of bringing the mind home, and how we can bring that simplicity, spaciousness, and humor we discover through meditation into our daily lives and activities.
