This is an invitation to download some free MP3s of my teaching.
This week I’m doing a lot of meditation teaching at Aryaloka Buddhist Center in New Hampshire, and I’ve been recording the meditation sessions and uploading them to a Dropbox account.
Most of the recordings are from 30 to 50 minutes long. I’ve been introducing the Mindfulness of Breathing, Development of Lovingkindness, and Walking Meditation practices. The overall theme is a phrase from the Pali canon, “Abiding in Ease, Here and Now,” and the meditations encourage a sense of spacious relaxation into the moment, with the emphasis on acceptance and equanimity.
If you’d like to download these, just post a comment below, and I’ll add you to the dropbox account. The MP3s are free (and for personal use only) and it doesn’t cost anything to join Dropbox.
NEW
A problem I hadn’t anticipated with Dropbox is that I keep subscribing people to the folder and they keep deleting the MP3 files, which means they’re gone for everyone. Replacing them every 30 minutes is getting to be tedious. So here’s the deal. You don’t have to post a comment below — just click on this link! Then right click (Control click on a Mac) and download the files. Check back every day, since I’ll be adding new files as they’re recorded. I don’t think you even have to join Dropbox now.
The meditation are not professionally recorded, and there is some background noise.

Count me in, please. Thanks alot
Thanks Bodhi !
why are you no longer on twitter?
I am still technically on Twitter, Dave. I wasn’t finding it very satisfactory, especially once I’d tried Google+, and so I decided to scale back considerably.
please, thank you
I would be very interested in hearing these sessions! Thank you for doing this!
Look forward to hearing these =D Thank you for sharing.
I am new to meditating. I can’t wait to download these teachings. Thanks so much!!
Thank you!
I haven’t gotten an invitation, where can I find it?
I sent you another invitation, Aurea.
Hello Bodhipaksa, I have done the first two Mindworks courses and really appreciate the meditations that are provided with those, and use them frequently. Would love to add some more of your teachings to my collection.
Thankyou.
I would most definitely like access to these guided meditations! Thank you and Namaste.
Would love to listen and practice with them. Thanks!
What a generous gift! Thank you so for sharing.
If I’ve missed adding you to the dropbox, please do let me know.
Also, and this is very important. PLEASE don’t remove the files from the dropbox. If you do that they’re gone for everyone. I’ve had to restore them several times now (I hadn’t anticipated this problem). Instead please copy the files to another directory on your computer.
Dear Bodhipaksa, I should love to download some files. I have lost both sets I bought from you and really miss them especially at the moment when really bad things are going on in my family
Hi, Ann. I’ve sent you a link to the files you purchased and then lost.
All the best,
Bodhipaksa
I’d love to get a copy of the files please.
Woops, sorry, just saw the update.
thank you for sharing this!
a note on Dropbox, by putting files in public folder you can share a public link to this file, so people won’t even need a dropbox account to download it and won’t be able to delete files; by sharing a folder anyone can change or delete the files that are in it, as you noticed…
warm regards, Olivier
Thanks, Oliver. After realizing that this was a problem, I shared the folder via a link. Files don’t have to be in a public folder for you to do that, and any folder can be shared. I think this is a new thing on Dropbox. However, the good thing about this learning experience was that I doubled my available space on Dropbox because of the number of people who signed up. I now have over 10GB!
