Series

Exploring Investigation 2015-09-01

Description

Investigation helps us uncover areas of delusion, ignorance, and unconsciousness while developing an embodied wisdom. Through investigation, we see how our conflicts and reactivity actually reveal the much deeper infrastructure of greed, hatred and delusion. This is the second talk in a series of three.

Homework

This week, choose several times when you feel emotionally charged about a situation. Practice suspending the urge to act, think or speak from that state. Ground yourself in the felt sense of the emotion. Ask, “What is being believed in right now?” Hold the answer in simplicity and connect with its felt sense.
