Healing from the Source
We all experience psychological, emotional and physical difficulties that from one perspective are the result of karma, from another they are the result of wounding through our life. This wounding is held within our energy-body. If we wish to begin to heal this residue of wounding in our nervous-system it helps to have a relationship to the source of our intrinsic or innate health. From a tantric point of view this is our innate Buddha-nature. The deity Vajrasattva is a direct emanation of this source of health and vitality in our nature and Vajrasattva practice is one of the most powerful healing practices in the Tibetan tradition. During this retreat we will explore the many different ways in which the practice of Vajrasattva can bring healing and transformation both in our physical body as well as our energy body. We will also [re-]introduce the ‘inner fire practice’ or ‘tummo’.
For whom
This sixth module is open for people who have at least three years of experience with meditation, previous experience with Rob’s seminars, basic knowledge of the foundations of Buddhism and a clear wish to explore and engage in the practice of tantric meditation. People with less experience may be asked to do some preparatory work before attending and can contact us to see how we can support them to make it possible. Timely subscription is therefore necessary.
Rob Preece
Rob Preece has studied Tibetan Buddhism for many decades under the guidance of great teachers and holds a degree in psychology. During this time he has written 4 ground-breaking books on the meaningful chemistry between psychology and Tibetan (tantric) buddhism: The Psychology of Buddhist Tantra; The Courage to Feel; The Wisdom of Imperfection; Preparing for Tantra; Feeling Wisdom and ‘Tasting the Essence of Tantra’.
Rob’s style of teaching is oriented towards opening a dialogue around the material that is being explored. This is to maintain a spirit of exploration and creativity in the way tantra is integrated into Western experience, rather than holding to rigid prescriptions of practice.
