"To the extent that I'm ready, I turn my heart in the direction of forgiveness. To the extent that I am ready, I forgive you."
In this sample meditation from Jack's newest course, Opening the Heart of Forgiveness, Jack guides a meditation exploring the three directions of forgiveness:
First Direction: Reflect on the ways you have hurt or harmed others, and ask for their forgiveness with compassion.
Second Direction: Acknowledge how youโve hurt yourself, and offer forgiveness and mercy to yourself.
Third Direction: Remember the pain others have caused you, and when ready, turn your heart towards forgiving them.

In this guided meditation, Jack invites us to receive sensations, thoughts, and feelings with mindful loving awareness.
Rest in loving awareness, relax into it. Notice the breath, feelings, and thoughts rising and falling. You are the mindful loving awareness itself, the loving witness to it all, spacious and wise.
This meditation was originally live-streamed by Spirit Rock for the Monday Night Dharma Talk in July of 2023

Enjoy this relaxing, nurturing dharma talk on the spirit of planting seeds and tending the garden of the heart.
โThough I do not believe that a plant will spring up where no seed has
been, I have great faith in a seed. Convince me that you have a seed
there, and I am prepared to expect wonders.โ โ Henry David Thoreau
โYou give yourself to life. You canโt know the results, theyโre not given to you. Your gift is to act with beauty, dignity, and compassion to plant seeds. To act without attachment to the results because thatโs not in your hands. You get to plant the seeds.โ โ Jack Kornfield
Spiritual practice requires of us a kind and devoted attention to the opening of the body as well as the heart. We cultivate the necessary space through a quieting of the mind, and invite a sense of compassion and openness into the heart. We can then listen to better understand how to become ourselves what we want the world to be. There is a profound offering in our commitment and dedication to becoming the most beautiful human beings that we can be. At the root of this offering is the desire to allow spiritual practice to be the tool with which we tend to the garden of the heart.
