Workshops
Entering the Heart Of Wisdom
Discovering Reality
With Matthew Riechers
11:00 am - 1pm
Saturday February 6
($15)
This meditation workshop will focus on the third step in gaining experience of this special meditation, Meditation on Emptiness in Four Essential Points. This meditation has been relied upon by the great meditation masters of India and Tibet for thousands of years, leading countless yogis and yogins into a direct experience of reality just as it is.
In the Third step of this extraordinary meditation, identifying the absence of oneness, we begin the actual search for the painful things that continuously interfere with our happiness. In this step, we will concentrate on discovering that the "I," or the painful self with which we identify, cannot be found among the body and mind. In fact, this painful self does not exist other than as a projection of the ignorant mind.
The profound understanding of reality that arises from this discovery will heal our minds, bringing us into an intimate relationship with reality that is both deeply peaceful and pervaded by joy.

Love is not an emotion we feel towards one other person, but rather a state of being in which we cherish others unconditionally. Come
practice contemplating and meditating on love and spend some time creating the causes for love to flourish in the world as well as in
your life!
There will be a short explanation from Buddha's teachings on love, as
well as guided meditation and discussion, followed by hanging out and snacks! :)
