About the event
Meditation is the practice of being with what is, without trying to make anything happen or prevent anything from happening. Being completely available to be devoured by the present moment. It requires a mind that "stays", giving access to a penetrative insight in the essence of who you are.
In our courses you discipline your mind through concentration meditation (chi gnas; calming/staying) and gain insight in the essence of your awareness through special-insight meditation (Tib. lag thong; Skt vipasyanā). Techniques and instructions come from Indo-Tibetan Buddhism (Dzogchen, Mahamudra) and Tantric Shaivism (Trika, Kuala).
Our teachings are carefully adapted to be maximally effective for western practitioners. In addition, we use a pointing out style: clear, concrete instructions, followed by direct, individualised feedback.
The practice of authentic presence is about freely expressing and revealing yourself while being with others.
Through this practice, you learn to let go of habitual patterns and conditioned responses, allowing you to form deeper, more genuine connections rooted in who you truly are.
Authentic presence is a path of radical honesty. It creates a safe and supportive environment where you can look at yourself with fresh eyes. At the same time it often is fun, enjoyable, beautiful, and meaningful.
Ultimately, this practice leads to a closer connection with yourself and more meaningful relationships with others.
