Session 12: Compassion and the Deepest Dimension of Suffering
18/11/2010 Duración: 01h27minThis evening Alan leads us into the practice of compassion by attending to the 3rd and deepest dimension of suffering and its causes, completing the process of merging wisdom and compassion. After the meditation session, Alan answers 3 very important and very practical questions: one dealing with the ‘vase breathing,’ which can be applied in the practice of “settling the mind in its natural state” and in “awareness of awareness;” the second dealing with how to distinguish between observing the space of the mind when nothing arises in it, and awareness of awareness itself; and the third dealing with how to progress most efficiently while practicing mindfulness of breathing.

Session 11: Settling the Mind and Scientific Inquiry
18/11/2010 Duración: 41minIn this session Alan gives a short explanation on the modern neurocentric view which sustains that mental events are either equal to the brain, emergent properties of the brain or mere functions of it. He encourages us to observe mental events with an empiric–centric view, a spirit of inquiry and first person experience. We then meditated on settling the mind in its natural state with a special emphasis on observing carefully the space from which mental events arise, take place and dissolve back.
