If there is no other,
there is no I.
If there is no I, there is no one to perceive. This
is close to the truth, but we do not know why. There
must be some primal force, but we cannot discover
any proof. I believe in acts, but I cannot see it? I
can feel it, but it has no form.
First, there must be
a true human; then there can be true knowledge. But
what is a true human? The true human of old did not
mind being poor. He took no pride in his
achievements. He made no plans. Thus, he could
commit an error and did not regret it. He could
succeed without being proud. Thus, he could climb
mountains without fear, enter water without getting
wet, and pass through fire unscathed. This is the
knowledge that leads to Tao.
The true human of old
slept without dreaming and woke without anxiety. His
food was plain, and his breath was deep. For the
breath of the true human rose up from his heels
while the breath of common men rise from their
throats?

Kabbalistic Healing Study Group
|
|
This class introduces the concepts and
practices of Kabbalstic Healing; a non-dual
approach to body, mind, spirit healing
through a series of six classes. Through the
study group format we are able to come
together in small communities of discussion,
informative lecture, experiential exercises,
and meditation to understand the nature and
origin of existence, our place within it,
and what God, healing, prayer, and suffering
look like from the four major world views of
mystical thought. Participants will also
learn and practice a non-dual form of
healing in class six.
(Visit our site often for current dates and
locations for this class. If you would like
to host this or any other class with us
please contact us at: 952.832.0111. Thank

Chi Gung and the Essential Practices Class |
|
This class is offered as a FREE stand-alone
practice or as an adjunct to healing and
bodywork therapy for clients, their friends
and families, and to the general public.
Class meets three times per week in the
lower conference room of our building (4940
Viking drive, Edina 55435).
This is an introduction to Embodied
Practice; how we come to view, and
ultimately experience, the body as the
doorway (not the obstacle) to personal
growth and spiritual transformation.
Practice allows us to unify the energies of
the body and thus learn to trust our
sensations, which are the basis of bodily
intuition and wisdom. Using principles and
teachings from martial arts, yoga, chi gung,
body-centered therapies, energy healing,
structural bodywork, movement therapy, and
meditation we cultivate a deeper sensitivity
to who we are from the body to the mind and
spirit.
(A full series of Chi Gung will be taught
and practiced each week.) Please join us! |
