| 6/13/26 | ![]() Supporting minority groups. Zoom 05.2026 (Saga Dawa Düchen) | May 31st 2026. James Low talked about compassion in action and supporting minority groups such as the Huni Kuin in the Amazon. Bellow you can read more about this group and how to support them here.This event was taking place on the full moon day (Saga Dawa) of the 4th month in the Tibetan calendar. It commemorates such major events of Sakyamuni Buddha’s life as his birth, awakening, and parinirvāṇa. The Tibetans consider that any positive or negative karma we create during this month is multiplied 100,000 times.Note: the constant cuts in this video result from the removal of James Low's periods of silence, while waiting for the consecutive translation from the German translator.Transcript of the meeting (may contain minor errors): https://bit.ly/3RXr4nqAudio of this meeting: https://bit.ly/49SMQyDOther languages' links: [soon]🌳 AMAZONIAN 🐆 WORLD 🌎 SANCTUARY💎 Compassionate call 🙏In the heart of the Brazilian Amazon Rainforest, the Huni Kuin indigenous people are experiencing a rebirth of their identity after decades of slavery and oppression, since the time when they were captured in the forests and forbidden from living their culture. It was only from the year 2000 onwards that the Huni Kuin of the Humaitá Indigenous Land began to remember who they were, coming together to recall their culture and their ancestral, spiritual way of life. After more than 20 years of strengthening, the communities of the Indigenous Land are today living through a cultural peak.🛶 Learn more about this ancestral people, native to pre-colonial Brazil:https://docs.google.com/document/d/1XeY6dhejg7NquTZth8X5ACc7e2Swo1waitMEkMOCXYM/edit?usp=sharing🔆 James Low's call:https://www.instagram.com/p/DXvyV8AsRS6/🐆 Indigenous Shaman (spiritual leader) Mapu Huni Kuin Instragram: https://www.instagram.com/mapuhunikuin/ and https://www.instagram.com/huwakaruyuxibu/🎬 Eskawata Kayawai: The Spirit of Transformation: https://youtu.be/muIExL2Qly0The product of a seven-year project in Brazil.

| 2/16/26 | ![]() All at Once. [EN-TR] Izmir 10.2025 | 10th - 14th October 2025. All at Once. Teaching and Meditation retreat led by James Low at Şirince Village, Selçuk, in İzmir, Turkey.https://simplybeing.co.uk/events/all-at-once-teaching-retreat-izmir-oct-2025/PS: This recording contains only the second half of the retreat.Organised by Mustafa Mert Çelebi, Sevgi Çakıcı and Trevor Brown.The focus of this retreat is seeing how we limit our potential by hanging on to habits and impulses which do not function well in the world in which we find ourselves. Dzogchen, the Great Completion, is the heart of Tibetan Buddhism and it offers us a way to release ourselves from the limiting ideas that we have of ourselves so that the freshness of our simple presence can illuminate our life in a new way.These teachings and practices help us to see the fleeting nature of all experience. With this clarity we can let go of our habit of effortful striving to solidify the flow of experience. This approach to life offers us a profound choice. Either we can continue to objectify whatever occurs so that we can name it and try to shape it to fit our sense of how we want our life to be. Or we can relax and open to being part of the flow, gently influencing how we emerge as part of the circumstances we encounter.This latter approach frees us from the need to verify and analyse so that we can enjoy the freshness of each and every moment.This short retreat will introduce us to the essence of the view of Dzogchen and facilitate how we can enter into direct experience of non-dual co-emergence. There will be periods of teaching and of meditation practice.Referred text: 'Prayer Evocation of Kuntuzangpo', availabel in English, Spanish and Portuguese: https://bit.ly/4tpWxwz Turkish translation: Mustafa Mert ÇelebiCover art: Taryn Elliott (Pexels.com)📱 Instagram of excerpts: instagram.com/simplybeingsangha🎧 Poscasts of some teachinhgs: simplybeing.co.uk/news/podcasts/📆 Learn more about future events: simplybeing.co.uk/eventsVideo at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v7syJlFOJeU | — | ||||||
| 2/7/26 | ![]() Equanimity - Finding balance in a turbulent world. Macclesfield 02.2019 | 22-24 February 2019. Equanimity - Finding balance in a turbulent world. James Low conducted these teaching weekend for the Kun-Pan Ling Buddhist group in Macclesfield, UK.Attempts to withdraw from turbulence or to control the mind are actions which increase our sense of separation. The mahayana view looks at how our mind is, rather than focusing on its impermanent contents. In the meditation we seek to open to that which is stable, an invitation, an explanation and a practice.~ James LowRecorded by Charles Lomas and Gareth Williams.Transcript of the retreat: https://bit.ly/4rtBaskAudio recording of the retreat: https://simplybeing.co.uk/audio-recordings/retreats/macclesfield-talk-no-20-equanimity/Learn more about future events: simplybeing.co.uk/events/📱 Instagram of excerpts: https://instagram.com/SBSangha_JamesLow🎧 Poscasts of some teachings: https://simplybeing.co.uk/news/podcasts/📆 Learn more about future events: https://simplybeing.co.uk/events/Video at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pqyJZ-bwCYA | — | ||||||

| 11/2/25 | ![]() 42 Questions & Answers. [EN-IT] Zoom 06.2025 | June 4th 2025. James Low had invited questions from people watching his Zooms, which he began to answer.1) Is consciousness and mind the same in Buddhism? Is my mind which is deluded and has its own habits and tendencies the same as the mind which is primordial, unborn and clear? If so why is the mind which I call mine deluded?2) Are the explanations about karma and rebirth offered by traditional Buddhism part of a theory or belief or is it part of experience? Is it under the domain of consciousness or the domain of awareness? Does it make sense to practice Dzogchen without fully accepting these theories?3) What does it mean if a rinpoche bangs you on the head or gives you a shock?4) The luminous mind that we all have: is it also a compounded phenomena? If yes, how do we know when it is present and when not?5) Can a mind involved in conceptual elaboration ever generate compassion or loving kindness? Right mindfulness is one aspect of the eight-fold path. What are instances of wrong mindfulness? How do I guard against wrong mindfulness?6) In the White A practice, can we eventually include a Padmasambhava visualization with the three colors, the ball that radiates white light and drops into our heart, etc., or the practice of visualizing the tube that goes from the crown of our head to the perineum and then expands?7) We have some experience within the Theravada and Zen traditions; now we start to explore Dzogchen. What would you recommend: pointing out instructions, initiation, long-term retreat?8) Is there a practice that can be used to improve someone's situation? How would this work?English: youtu.be/xnsfHHP9vRsEnglish (without silence cuts): youtu.be/Z5vLJzeK4foGerman: youtu.be/Z6MKqkIVY48Russian: youtu.be/b-i8VP36OzsPolish: youtu.be/r4g3DkxASwQSpanish: youtu.be/tyWlgXr2RHUPortuguese: youtu.be/UOc2Bi_XuYQRomanian: youtu.be/GrmoLpoUMvYItalian: youtu.be/vDS6yQ_aK9w (you are here)Italian translation: Rosanna D'Urso📱 Instagram of excerpts: https://instagram.com/SBSangha_JamesLow🎧 Poscasts of some teachings: https://simplybeing.co.uk/news/podcasts/📆 Learn more about future events: https://simplybeing.co.uk/events/Video at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vDS6yQ_aK9w | — | ||||||
