Meditation and Reflections on Equanimity (and a very interesting “deep water” question)

B. Alan Wallace, 23 Apr 2010

This afternoon we meditated on the fourth of the 4 Immeasurables: Equanimity.
There is a preamble on Equanimity, followed by the meditation and by some reflections of the importance of this practice. Afterwards there is a Q&A with a question about the breath followed by a question which again turned into a goldmine: it started out with “what exactly is the difference between nirvana and rigpa” and evolved into a very deep overview of the path and the final stages just prior to complete enlightenment. In Alan’s words, “deep waters.” Very interesting topic.
