Devon Hase: Equanimity: The Ground of Wise Action
Dharma Seed: dharma talks and meditation instructionShow Notes
(Refuge of Belonging) In this Dharma talk, devon hase explores equanimity not as indifference or withdrawal, but as a source of clarity, compassion, and courageous engagement with the world. Drawing on stories from Joseph Goldstein, Mingyur Rinpoche, and other beloved teachers, she invites us to discover the unshakable center from which wise action becomes possible.

(Spirit Rock Meditation Center) The second refuge invites us into intimacy with truth: something alive, immediate, and here for us whenever we remember to look. Using the ancient chant of the Dhamma’s qualities (here and now, timeless, inviting us to come and see, leading inward), this talk explores awareness as a refuge that can hold even chronic pain and old grief with both equanimity and compassion. Drawing on the suttas, Thai Forest masters, and poets like John O’Donohue and Ada Limón, we turn to kalyāṇa, the Pali word for the Dhamma as beautiful in the beginning, middle, and end. Beauty shows up in our practice, our actions, and our spiritual friendships, and it can become a companion and guide on the path home.
