Last week we looked into the three realms of the animals, the gods and the humans. Join us this week for more short talks by members of the Sangha of their personal experience of these realms and how they keep one foot in the human realm! We'll hear how temporarily visiting other realms can bring growth and transformation, and how with practice comes the freedom of spending more and more time in the human realm.
During this theme we'll be looking at The Wheel of Life, a living symbol that encompasses the entirety of existence. We'll learn how to escape from the prison and sufferings of Samsara, towards ever increasing positive and expansive states of being, towards the ultimate goal of Awakening.
We'll be taking a contemporary look at this ancient symbol, visiting it's realms and their beings from the depths of the hell realm to the heights of the heavenly abodes, and asking what do these realms look like in our modern society and world?
Expect support for home practice, practical ideas of how to bring these traditional teachings into your everyday life, and reflections on how to make your Great Escape!
