SUMMARY:Exploring the ‘I’(POSTPONED DUE TO COVID-19 PRECAUTION)
DESCRIPTION:\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFrom time immemorial we have been addicted to the self. It is how we identify ourselves.\nIt is what we love most dearly. It is also what we hate most fiercely at times.\nIts existence is also the thing that we work hardest to try to validate. Almost everything that we do or think or have, including our spiritual path, is a means to confirm its existence…\nThe self loathes suffering and loves the causes of suffering. It stupidly wages war in the name of peace.\nIt wishes for enlightenment but detests the path to enlightenment. …\nIts skills in playing the game of deception are nearly perfect. It weaves a cocoon around itself like a silkworm; but unlike a silkworm, it doesn’t know how to find the way out.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n– Dzongsar Khyentse Rinpoche\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe ‘I’ often stays as an unstated and unexplored reference point for our experiences and our lives. This workshop aims to provide a space to examine that very ‘I’: Does it exist? If so, how does it exist? How do we see ourselves and how did that view come about?\nAt ARTH, we believe that a deeper understanding of the ‘Self’ is critical to living a life which is more authentic and in alignment with our values and aspirations. This two and a half day experiential workshop is informed by Buddhist thought, and will include the use of Arts Based Activities, lectures and group discussions, along with meditation and few other practices.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Facilitators\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDr. Nivedita Chalill is a Mental Health professional (M.A, M.Phil & Ph.D) with over two decades of clinical experience.
