Dharma talks with Jaya Ashmore

An international Dharma teacher since 1999, Jaya Ashmore guides listeners to the heart of meditation and freedom in her talks. She draws from and brings to life ancient texts from diverse traditions, modern poetry and science, and the tenderness and power of our puzzling human experience.

With over 30 years of meditation experience primarily in India, Jaya evokes transformative depth and joy in all of life--from daily life, to meditation basics and more subtle areas.

Her fresh, unique and practical talks give voice to an abiding reverence for life.

A unique and pioneering force in the Dharma world, Jaya reminds people from any or no religion to rest into their own direct contact with aliveness beyond ideas.

Her nonprofit Open Dharma has offered teachings and retreats on 5 continents.
