    Mark and Shelly’s meditations and talks—as well as the offerings of the other teachers—have helped me get through these times with some degree of equanimity. Thank you!

    Thank you
    Thank you Mark and Common Ground for making the dharma talks so accessible online and now on iTunes. It makes it possible to continue deepening my practice from afar. Plus, it makes me chuckle that I can listen to a talk on impermanence anytime I want ;') Thanks for giving so freely of yourselves!
