ZEN THERAPY retreat: Entering the Silence at Sukhavati House, LONDON

May 26, 2012 all day
with Dharmavidya David Brazier & Jnanamati WilliamsZen is an intuition of wholeness. This means that each presentation can be taken to imply not only meaning in terms of the particular but also as one part of a holistic vision of which it is a reflective element. In therapy, this means that each thing that the client brings includes an implication of its possible negation. In this negation is to be found a gateway into an infinite expansion of mind. Contemplative traditions generally ground…See More

April 1st HOLY FOOLS: THE BOMBU PARADIGM at Sukhavati

April 1, 2012 from 9:30am to 5pm
David BrazierMost spiritual paths have a tradition of the "holy fool". The innocence of the fool, like that of the child, is close to the sacred. The giving up of cleverness and self-entitlement can be a pathway to sanity and a way that inspires others while simultaneously unsettling conventional habits and hypocrisy. In therapy we confront our weaker side, but can we really do so with a deep acceptance of the universality of such weakness? The therapist, like the shaman, is a "wounded healer".…See More

Living with Loss at Amida London Buddhist Centre

June 12, 2011 from 10am to 4pm
Living with Loss Loss, and the feelings that arise in response to it, is a part of all our lives. We may have lost our good health, or our livelihood; a relationship may have ended; we may have lost a loved one; or we may be grieving for something we never had. Loss is dukkha, the first noble truth, and how we respond to loss can affect deeply our sense of wellbeing and how we relate to each other. In this one-day retreat workshop we will share our stories of loss and begin to look gently at…See More

Other-power or Zazen?

Started by Dr Di in Amida Trust & Amida-shu Development. Last reply by Thomas Myojo Radcliffe May 5. 19 Replies

I see Amida Trust bringing the 2 together, or are they mutually exclusive? ie the here and now focus on breath of Zazen implies continuity and oneness, whereas the 'other- power' of Amida can be seen…Continue

The prison of the question of "liking or not liking"

Started by Katrien Sercu in Amida Trust & Amida-shu Development. Last reply by Robert McCarthy Apr 30. 9 Replies
