“There is no greater happiness than peace” – Jack Kornfield
In this episode, Jack leads meditations on the themes of peace being the highest happiness, rest, stability, stillness, finding presence, accepting all that arises with kindness and compassion, encouraging stillness of thoughts and emotions, resting in loving awareness, and discovering a calm mind and contented heart.
