SUMMARY:The Awakening Body - An online weekend of embodied meditation and inquiry with Tejananda and Balajit
DESCRIPTION:  \n \nWe will start by clarifying a crucial distinction – that between mind and body. Mental contents\, such as thoughts and images\, cannot awaken. Our conceptual mind is not what\, or who\, we truly are. It is the immediate experience of our sensate body and the other ‘body senses’ that are our gateways to awakening. \nThis will lead us into an exploration of embodiment – literally\, coming to our senses. Embodiment can take us deep into the experiential truths about our nature to which Buddhist teachings are pointing. \nWe can also discover subtler dimensions of embodiment in our experience\, including the energy body and even the mentally unfabricated dharma body. \nWhile our body is potentially a source of wisdom\, we also have a ‘pain body’. This holds all the tensions\, contractions and emotional avoidance patterns that have built up. These patterns\, and the suffering associated with them\, can gradually release through turning towards them. \nWe will be exploring how to deepen into this vital transforming work. \nJoin us from 4pm on Friday the 14th November to 5.30pm on Sunday 16th. \nPlease note this retreat is only open to people who have been practising within the context of the Triratna Buddhist Community for at least three years. \nAfter you have reserved a space (click on ‘website’ below) you will be sent a confirmation email. Closer to the event\, you will be sent an email with a Zoom link\, where the event will be hosted. \nDana \nThis retreat is offered on a dana (donation) basis. Donations can be made either before\, during or after the event. A link for dana will be sent closer to the start of the event. The dana is to support the retreat leaders in meeting their living costs and being able to organise and run these events. \nSuggested donation: \n£50-90 | $65-120 | €60-105 \nNo one is turned away for lack of funds. \n  \nSession Timings \nThe session timings (UK) will be: \nFriday 14th November \n16.00 – 17.30 \n19.30 – 21.00 \nSaturday 15th November \n9.30 – 12.00 \n16.00 – 17.30 \n19.30 – 21.00 \nSunday 16th November \n9.30 – 12.00 \n16.00 – 17.30
