Workshop for Experienced Meditators on Saturday February 9, 2008

THE WISDOM OF INSIGHT

In Buddhist tradition, the Wisdom of Insight refers to the deep understanding and experience of the nature of reality. The quality of that nature is of Impermanence, Unsatisfactoriness, and Selflessness. When this nature is clearly seen and experienced, an end to clinging and to suffering is possible.

In this workshop for experienced meditators, we will intellectually explore the meaning of these three characteristics. We will use contemplation to penetrate our understanding, followed by periods of silence in which to experience these qualities directly.

According to tradition, these teachings are offered freely. There will be an opportunity to offer donations in appreciation.

The workshop will be led by Ann Barden, who has been practicing and teaching Vipassana meditation for many years. She is a teacher with Deep Spring Center in Ann Arbor Michigan, and with Forestway. To register, or if you have questions, you may reach her at 154-5104.
