Video: Help on the Path: Joyous Effort

This recording from SF Dharma Collective features Isa Gucciardi, Ph.D. as part of the Help on the Path series.

The focus of this session is the Paramita of Virya (Joyous Effort). Drawing inspiration from the recent history of the Tibetan people and their remarkable resilience in the face of adversity, Isa explores how we can cultivate perseverance, enthusiasm, and dedication on the spiritual path. The session includes a discussion, guided meditation, and questions from participants.

Presented as part of SF Dharma Collective’s Help on the Path series, these teachings explore questions about Buddhist practice, themes arising in therapy, insights and perspectives from plant medicine, and inquiries into all aspects of personal and spiritual development.
