Flowering of Awareness - a 2 Day Meditation Immersion

Flowering of awareness - a 2 day meditation immersion

by Rajiv Kapoor

Observing a flower without memory, prior knowledge, imagination, or evaluation—giving it our complete attention—is a doorway to meditation.

When we look at a flower with judgment—“How beautiful this flower is,” or “This is a red rose,” or “I like other flowers better than this flower”—these thoughts distract us from the bare act of attention, which is meditation in itself. Awareness can only flower when we see things as they are, without evaluation. This is possible only when the mind and body are completely still, unentangled, and sensitive.

This practice applies to all aspects of our lives, including the 6 sense doorways: sound, sight, taste, sensation, smell, and thinking. Our well-being is determined by how we pay attention.

Join me on a 2 day meditation immersion where we will explore the nature of awareness and practice the art of meditation together. We will focus on stilling the mind through awareness of breath and explore the mysterious nature of our bodies.

Meditation allows us to:

• Discover trust and find freedom as we are
• Connect more intimately and intentionally with all of our life
• See the truth of suffering and move beyond it

Our time together will include talks, guided meditations, mindful movement, Q&A, and personal reflections.
