This is as close a category for links as there seems to be here. Move 'em to a more appropriate location if need be

I've been downloading scores and scores of dhamma talks. Most are fluff, or borderline fluff. Or the speaker goes on endlessly about the point, belaboring it into the ground. I'm hoping we could use this thread to post quality, high content (signal to noise ratio) talks.

I don't prefer Youtube links, because it involves extra steps to get them onto a disc I can listen to in the car. I felt that these we exceptional, and very worthy the extra work, including processing them through Audacity in order to minimize the background hiss.

Without any further ado, here's Culadasa -

EDIT: changed urls to links. Hopefully.

This is a great idea. Thank you for thinking of it, Darrell.

I have a slightly picky request: could people post real links rather than URLs? It just makes it easier to get to, especially those of us on tablets a lot of the time. Thanx . . . 

So those links I pasted didn't work, obviously. I'll have to figure out how to paste, or insert those as links. Might take a minute, this site is unweildly for me. It doesn't quite work the way any other forum I've used does.

Meanwhile, I hope you can copy and paste those Laurel, as they are really worth hearing.

Sanjay, you left an extra "yhttps://www." in the link and it didn't work. Fixed it for you.

Thanks for that. I corrected it in the original post, I believe.
Anyway, back to the intent of this thread.

A collection of talks by Ajahn Chah. Click on the picture of collected teaching of Ajahn Chah.

34 talks about “Waking Up” in celebration of Sounds True’s 30th anniversary. Free until the end of May if you register to get emails from them.

Included: Jack Kornfield, Shinzen Young, Rick Hanson, Adyashanti, Robert Thurman, Ken Wilbur, Reggie Ray, Eckhart Tolle, Tara Brach and more.

I particularly like Part 2 Chp 26 - Detachment within activity.

Are you referring to the Rob Burbea you posted, or something from the link posted by Elizabeth?

Your Ajahn Chah link

Dharma Ocean Podcast by Reggie Ray

They're all content dense imo, but here are some sample ones I like

Transmuting Poison

Ultimate Positivity

The Joy of Chaos

The Body -- Gateway to the Primordial

"Your Ajahn Chah link"

DOH!

I'm going to have to check those out. My curiosity is piqued by the fact that I haven't heard of Reggie Ray before.
The great thing about the internet is the unending abundance of material and information. The terrible thing about the internet is the unending abundance of material and information.

Here's another one that really impresses me. Made even more interesting by Ms. Cathrine's voice. She sounds like she's reading a childrens book. But the content has really given me a great deal of insight.

When you get to the page with the talks after registering, you can download the mp3s by looking at the source of the page. Makes for easy listening on your iPod or other device.

I'd add A.H. Almaas to the list you've mentioned as another interview worth listening to.

Great series by Ajahn Amaro on the book he co-authored with Ajahn Passano, The Island, on Nibbana.
