Understanding Oppression Through the Great Perfection Teachings

March 10, 2018 @ 10:00 am - 4:00 pm

with H. Margarita Loinaz

At the very core of our being, there is a self recognizing non-conceptual awareness that is the source of liberating insight.  It has been called The Mother of All Buddhas because it is this very insight that leads to the depth of understanding that liberates us from all confusion.  Through meditations, movement and inquiry, we will explore the direct experience of this non-conceptual knowing and begin to understand how the narratives and social structures we are embedded in trap us in an ongoing cycle of oppression and suffering.  Even a glimpse of this core of what we are begins to transform our lives, opening up new choices that allow appropriate action and new found freedom.

Please bring your lunch so that there is more continuity of awareness throughout the day.
