Shot through with Space (Part 1)
Manage episode 501555155 series 2932613
This is the first talk in a mini-series on practicing with the experience of space and spaciousness. The exploration starts with a fundamental shift in view… from “space separates” to “space connects.” We are culturally trained to see space as being between things and separating our self from the world, thus reinforcing opposition and alienation. But what if space is connecting and bonding—and beyond that enveloping, penetrating, and accommodating everything as it is? Such a shift can have profound implications for how we live—with less opposition and judgment and more acceptance and intimacy. To embody this, we need to make our minds spacious, open, and accommodating, thus freeing others and ourselves to be as we are. This can serve as a foundation for liberation from suffering, wisdom, and compassion.
