Establishing Basic Sanity

In Tantra the emotions are seen as the basis for liberation from the madness of duality, allowing us the possibility of breaking free from the self-defeating strategies that rule our lives. A day of teaching on the psychology of tantra and the geography of the elements and emotions, and introducing the Dzogchen method of embracing emotions within the practice of spaciousness. Not for those without strong emotions and without the courage to experience their emotional heights and depths as an opportunity to be totally alive. Emotions become problematic when they are driven into complexity and conflict with one another through thinking. Learn how to welcome the opportunity to embrace emotions within meditation: strong emotions make meditation more difficult, but also more powerful, so working with them accelerates progress. Understanding the elements and our emotions, and learning a better way to relate to emotions in meditation, can transform our experience of everyday life, making us both saner, happier, and more pleasant to be around.

No previous meditation experience necessary.
