From Awareness to Wisdom: Exploring the Mind

This course will explore the nature of consciousness, awareness and wisdom. Inspired in part by one description of the path as “sudden awakening, gradual cultivation,” we will consider the dimension of freedom that is inherent in the mind as well as progressive aspects of deepening this understanding. This retreat, open to both new and experienced meditators, will feature instructions and talks somewhat different from other insight meditation courses, highlighting perspectives from various lineages and traditions.
