Register now for 'Heart Wish' or 'Openness'
Two more Discovering the Heart of Buddhism Online Study Groups will be starting in November: Heart Wish and Openness.
All the groups are suitable for those exploring DHB for the first time as well as anyone wanting to revisit DHB themes in more depth.
Heart Wish
Starting 2nd November (Mondays at 19.00 UK time) with Zi-ji
In 'Indestructible Heart Essence' we explored chitta – the heart/mind – as the seat of our deepest longings and sense of truth. We are calling this the Heart Wish, intrinsic to the openness, clarity and sensitivity of our being. We explore aspects of our life experience and practice that concern volition, motivation, our power to give and keep our word, our power to persevere on the path until awakening and the ultimate expression of the heart essence of our being in the Endless Compassionate Vision of the Buddhas.
Openness
Starting 16th November (Mondays at 19.00 UK time) with Shiway Tsogyal
Throughout DHB, we learn to relate to Openness and spaciousness in our meditation and daily life awareness. This part focuses more closely on this aspect of the Indestructible Heart Essence by exploring more deeply what the words 'openness' and 'spaciousness' suggest in our experience. It links our findings to what in Buddhist literature is referred to as emptiness, the fundamental nature of reality.
Register now to be sure of a place, as numbers are limited to ensure plenty of time and space for discussion and sharing of experiences.
