The Deer Park Dharmacast

Another gift from the hidden mountains of Escondido, CA. This time we can enjoy a talk from Sister Chau Nghiem (Jewel) which she gave on the first full day of the POC Retreat.I was surprised by words of thanks I recieved this past weekend.  It gave me a warm feeling.  In the mist of our busy schedules we might forget to say a few words of gratitude which can make someone's day.  Lets try this one and remember to use it now and again.I know you are there and I am happyPlease enjoy our podcast!A Lotus for You,Michael Nguyen

A little treat for the e-community.  Laura Hunter, a regular at DP loves this song and I thought it would be a nice gift.  If you have attended a retreat hosted by the Plum Village Sangha then you should be familar with this song.  For those who haven't, I am sure you will enjoy this treat!You can order the full album "A Basket of Plums" from the UBC Gateway.A Lotus for You,Michael Nguyen

It has only been a week since our first DPCast but it feels as though Deer Park has been apart of my life forever.  We have had some wonderful feedback from the e-community and we have read every word!  Thank you so much for such encouraging e-mails and comments.Not to keep you, our second DPCast is hosted by Sister Jewel.  This is the talk the Dharma Teacher Larry Ward offered on the third day of the retreat. I haven't listened to it yet, so lets breathe in together, breathe out together and enjoy this wonderful gift from the Hidden Mountains of Escondido, CA.Be sure to check the Deer Park website for more information about living in the present moment.Friend of DP,Michael Nguyen

Seven years ago the Deer Park Dharma Cast first started. Here is the initial episode, a hidden treasure brought to light again. This is our first attempt, please give us feedback so we can improve upon what we offer to you and the e-community.
