Monthly Saturday Depth Meditation Live Video Gatherings
With Rose Taylor Goldfield, San Francisco, CA. 9.30am to 11.30am, Pacific.
January 11th: Practicing in Our Vajrayana Community
Vajrayana practice connects us with our fundamental nature, which is flawless, luminous, and brilliant; suffused with well-being and love. While the Vajrayana teachings and practices are powerful and efficacious tools for our path of deep personal transformation, they also need particular care and a supportive container of a sane, grounded Vajrayana community.
In this session, we will begin with Vajrayana songs, teachings, and meditation practices that help us connect with our core nature, and then also open the space for an ongoing discussion of Vajrayana topics that can be perplexing, such as guru-student relationships, samaya, and devotion.
February 1st: Pure World: Vajrayana and our Relationship with Nature and the Five Elements
In this session, we will explore one of the most important aspects of practicing within the Vajrayana: pure view. Rather than the modern materialist view of ourselves as an individual wandering around in a world of inert matter, we discover that we are held in a world of pure awareness, of vivid aliveness, and deep interrelationship. This world is worthy of our respect, attention, and love and, when we connect in this way, it offers back to us incredible energy, endless possibility, and pure magic.
In these monthly online meditation live video gatherings we practice a variety of guided Depth Meditations together, including songs of awareness and somatic and movement practices. We discuss how to find resources from Buddhist teachings and other traditions ancient and new, to help us connect with the full depths of our human experience and the incredible qualities and strengths that lie within us. For the specific focus of each session please see sidebar on left.
All sessions include:
Seated Depth Meditations
Yogic Movement Exercise to deepen our relationship with our subtle body and support us in daily life—suitable for all body types and abilities
Songs of Awareness
Group Discussion
These are community events and are open to all. We are delighted to have participants from around the world: It will be Saturday morning in San Francisco; late morning in the Midwest; midday on the East Coast; and evening in Europe.
