He also represents the fullest flowering of human potential. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOn this course they’ll be studying the Buddha’s words on metta – loving-kindness – and how they point out a path to realise this potential.

You will receive the book on the first night of the course. \n  \nOver the five weeks they will cover:\n\nWeek 1: The way of metta and the first stage of metta-bhavana – metta for oneself.\nWeek 2: The ethical foundations of metta and the second stage of metta-bhavana – metta for a friend.\nWeek 3: Cultivating metta and the third stage of metta-bhavana – metta for a neutral person.\nWeek 4: The culmination of metta and the fourth stage of metta-bhavana – metta for an enemy.\nWeek 5: The realization of metta and the fifth stage of metta-bhavana – metta equalized and limitless.\n\n  \nSuitable for:  \n\nAnyone interested in discovering the transformative and radical power of Kindness as taugh by the Buddha.\nMeditators with some experience who want to refresh their metta practice.\nComplete beginners who want to learn about the Buddha’s teaching on metta/loving kindness and the Metta Bhavana meditation practice.

SUMMARY:Entering Emptiness
DESCRIPTION:Buddhism talks about śūnyatā – variously translated as emptiness\, fullness\, beauty\, even ‘the ground of perfection’. \nHow do we relate to and explore this exciting and mysterious expression of the true nature of things – this vision of a developing a consciousness that transcends all limitations? \n\n\n\n\n\n\nFirstly\, we develop a steady\, empathetic\, dynamic mind; then we turn that flexible mind towards a direct confrontation with reality. \nOnly when both of these faculties are in play can we enter the unbounded world of the truly real; only then can we fathom the mystery of the void. \nOn this day retreat\, Vajrashura will be exploring what is at the heart of the Dharma\, and how we can live with the vision of śūnyatā – emptiness\, fullness\, richness\, insight. \nIt goes far beyond managing the stresses of life\, improving concentration\, and even beyond being happier or more kind. \nCome along on this day retreat exploring the profound depths of the Dharma\, led by Vajrashura. \n  \n\nWhat the day offers:\n\nA deeper understanding of Buddhist teachings on emptiness or śūnyatā.\nConnection with meaning in your life.\nAn opportunity to engage with the great mysteries of reality.\nA chance to practice with others in a supportive environment.
