'Unlocking' Direct Realization(s) . . .

Direct Experiential Realization, often identified as requisite 'kin' to the Awakening Mind; difficult to describe with words alone . . . not referring to intellectual understandings or belief systems, perhaps best understood as authentic, unmediated experience(s) of reality.

For your consideration, join us in our accessible discussion of Direct (and Indirect) Realizations; we include 'wisdom' perspectives from the Heart Sutra; the non-dual perspectives reflected within the Avatamsaka (aka Flower Garland) Sutra's allegory of Indra's vast, multi-dimensional jeweled Net, the role of intellect and practical how-to's included-in and emerging-from Shamatha (calm abiding) and Vipassana (insight) meditation practices.
