Beyond the surface manifestation |
The ancient Tibetan tradition has many methods of going beyond the surface manifestation of mind in order to reach our intrinsic nature. Some direct methods for accomplishing the basic mind nature are those of Mahamudra, Dzog-Chen, and meditation on Sunyata.
The nature of "mind" is characterised as the intrinsic quality of gSal-rig
(clarity and radiance "awareness" principle) related with "mind" and
"energy" in matter. However, even though the nature of mind is the basis from
which any mental and physical aspect of ourselves appears and develops, and is actually
part of any state, this subtle mind "energy" is generally not accessible to us
in our normal state of being. In the normal state we are merely identifying with the
conceptualising mind and the connected emotions.
During this course the participants will be introduced to different original methods which
provide experience and insight into the nature of the mind. This takes place on different
levels - both on the surface and at more subtle levels of mind, as well as into the
accompanying subject/object interrelationships. Participants will learn methods to develop
a more deep and profound subject/object relationship. First at all this makes it possible
to calm the conceptualising mind and its accompanying emotions, and thereby provide the
space to experience a more direct and uninterrupted sense-perception. This gives insight
into projections we otherwise take to be true reality. Secondly we learn to experience a
more profound layer of "wholeness being", which is the core of actual
self-healing as well as radical psychotherapeutic healing.
