Sunday March 7: Dharma Gathering with Guest Speaker Carolyn Gimian: The Eye of Dharma
Date & Time: March 7, 2021, 10 am to 12 noon ET
The Eye of Dharma
“From the actual discipline of the sitting practice of meditation, people begin to learn to relate with themselves and they open up. They are willing to work with their own basic neuroses and face the areas they have been trying to hide from themselves. When you can sit and deal with your own neurosis, then you are developing what is known as “the eye of the dharma.”
Chogyam Trungpa, Kalapa Assembly Transcripts.
From the sitting practice of meditation, we begin to develop real insight and awareness. What do we see when we begin to develop this “eye of dharma”?
