Falling In Love With Presence
With Suryacitta (The Happy Buddha)This course is based on Suryacitta’s 30+ years of experience of meditation and teaching. We all want to be present, we intuitively know that to be happy and at peace we need to move from living in the head to living in the heart. But how do we do this? We can read about this shift, we can hear inspiring teachings, but we still find ourselves living too much in our thought made world, which can be very unsatisfactory or even worse, it can make us miserable. This course is practical and experiential in nature. Suryacitta in his own unique style will not only tell you what it is like to live in the heart, but will show you HOW to live in the heart. He will describe with practical meditations, teachings and techniques how to shift from being obsessed with thinking, with its worries and fantasies about past and future to FALL IN LOVE WITH PRESENCE. Please Note: Suryacitta doesn't use notes and therefore the sessions themselves are not so particularly structured. He prefers to keep it this way. This allows allows him to keep it fresh and alive and to be open to "in the moment" inspiration which enable him to use metaphors, images and stories.
Learn how to get out of your head and into your heart life.
