C1. Arising and Dissolving:

The Spontaneous Play of Nondual Awareness


There is a Vastness beyond time, beyond mind, beyond thoughts of "me," "you" or even "That." Called by many names, it is where all names cease, all conceptualization dissolves, yet simultaneously it is the ground of all arising. There is no separate "subject" who "realizes," and true Understanding cannot be made into an object. Yet, the Mystery is ever-present, awake, spontaneously expressing itself as this moment, this body, this appearance and disappearance. When thought lets go of needing to control, we see from beyond separation what is actually present, and begin to speak from Nondual Awareness rather than about it. We see life's spontaneous and dynamic play arising and dissolving moment to moment.

Format:
Including both direct experiential invitations and conversations from the Vastness, we hope to invite participants to explore with us speaking and living from what is Undivided.

Experiential invitations (1 hour)

Break (15 minutes)

Conversational "dances" (2 hours, 15 minutes)

At the end of the presentation, you are better able to:
1) describe the role of Nondual Awareness in therapy.
2) speak from Nondual Awareness in therapy rather than about it. This workshop is eligible for CE credit.

Playmates in the Vastness:
(sometimes referred to as facilitators): Kenneth Bradford, Peter Fenner, Dorothy Hunt, Kaisa Puhakka, John Prendergast (moderator)
