Description
The Non-Dual Practice of Emptiness: Dissolving Narcissism and Embodying Compassion
A Nalanda Institute Daylong Retreat with Dr. Joe Loizzo and Geri Loizzo
This daylong Nalanda Institute retreat eases participants into the practice of emptiness meditation, starting with the preliminaries of refuge and self-other compassion, moving on to the most common frameworks for guiding self-analysis, then exploring the deconstructive and reconstructive modes of wisdom which work together to catalyze mind/body self-transformation.
The morning session explores the practice of emptiness on the exoteric path of non-dual compassion; the afternoon session explores emptiness practice on the esoteric path of bliss-void embodiment. Throughout the day, the instructors share their personal experience of living the path of non-dual openness and embodied warm-heartedness. Together participants explore the timely relevance of this profound practice for adapting the narcissistic culture of our age to the pressing challenges of rising interdependence and inclusiveness.
Organized by
At Nalanda Institute, we see an interdependent world where all people flourish together by learning to tame self-defeating thoughts and emotions and to thrive sustainably with others in mutual happiness, compassion, and altruism.
Our mission is to train people from all walks of life in timeless contemplative skills informed by practical neuropsychology to empower themselves and others to cultivate a wise mind, compassionate heart, and altruistic way of being in our interdependent world.
