In this dharma talk, we discuss why the winter solstice is the perfect time to start anew and let what truly matters in your heart come into the light. You can play with awareness itself, and with a lens of the heart you can start to see the beauty in everybody. We’re all both very fortunate, and we’re unfortunate. That’s how it is being a human being. But in the middle of that, we each have the possibility for greater compassion, greater love, greater presence, greater wakefulness, greater freedom in ourselves. We must be unafraid to make a difference in the world.
