guided sunyata (emptying the mind) meditation
The following meditation is my interpretation of the Buddha's wonderful teaching known as The Shorter Teaching on Emptiness. It describes how, though a series of patient reflections, we can gradually shift our attention from the busy world around us to realms of serenity and emptiness. I find it a wonderful practice, and have lead many practitioners through it on retreats. I've made it as streamlined and concrete as possible (the original teaching struck me as somewhat abstract and vague.) It was recorded live on at Dharmapunx NYC, Greenpoint meeting, Monday November 2nd, 2015.

Trippy Infinite Space Meditation w/ background ambient music
The goal of this meditation is to cultivate a non-dual awareness, undermining the perception of 'inside' and 'outside.' Such meditations can be quite trippy and pleasurable for most, though it can be a bit disorienting, so leave time afterwards to return to a mundane state of mind.
This meditation was recorded at our Dharmapunx NYC 2014 autumn retreat on saturday august 22nd. The hall created a great deal of reverberation and resonant sounds, and the smart phone recording my voice wasn't close enough, so I've masked some of the audio defects with ambient music I created in garageband. The voice at times can drop to a level that's difficult to discern.
Metta, josh

George Haas and Josh Korda on the Roots of the False Self and a Return to Authenticity
Talk given August 12, 2014 to a full house at New York Dharmapunx. Josh started the talk, introducing the theme of authenticity and inauthenticity, the roots of self-abandonment and the false self. A focus was placed on how the performative self leads to feelings of emptiness and the abandoned body. George developed the theme by exploring self and other blame, family systems of dysregulation, ultimately emphasizing the goal of learning how to hold abandonment experiences.
