What can we say about the qualities of liberation, the radical freedom from samsara? What is liberation like? What key features—impermanence, non-duality, compassion, non-self—characterize this experience? How do such experiences impact our lives and how we respond to the world?
The many lineages of Buddhism address these questions in ways that sometimes converge and sometimes seem quite different. Through dharma talks, conversation, and guided meditation, we will explore liberation through the teachings of these traditions in a way that is grounded in experience.
Program Format: This program will include dharma talks, discussion, guided meditation, and time for conversation. Most (but not all) of the teaching and meditation will also be available remotely through Zoom.
Dāna (Generosity): The teachers will receive an honorarium for their participation and have graciously offered to donate all dāna from this program in support of BCBS’s mission. We invite you to join in this practice of generosity by considering a tax-deductible gift.
