Openness Online Study Group - Discovering the Heart of Buddhism
Login to register for this course
Registration is open until Monday 9 November, 12:00pm.
A 6-week online study group, mentored by Shiway Tsogyal, on the DHB theme Openness. This group will meet weekly on Mondays at 7pm.
Throughout Discovering the Heart of Buddhism, we learn to relate to Openness and spaciousness in our meditation and daily life awareness. This part explores this theme with a slightly different emphasis. It 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.

Openness is the fifth of the eight Discovering the Heart of Buddhism themes. If you are working through DHB for the first time, you are strongly encouraged to explore the themes in order, as each theme builds upon the previous one. The study groups are also open to students who wish to re-explore and deepen their understanding of a theme they have previously studied. The eight themes are, in order:
- Heart of Meditation
- Indestructible Heart Essence
- Confidence
- Heart Wish
- Openness
- Clarity
- Sensitivity
- Mandala Principle
