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 four ground-breaking books on the meaningful chemistry between Jungian psychology and Tibetan (tantric) Buddhism: The Psychology of Buddhist Tantra, The Courage to Feel, The Wisdom of Imperfection and Preparing for 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.
De Mandala and Visions of Wholeness
module 8
At this final retreat we will begin to draw together elements of practice that have gone before into a more cohesive whole. This will emphasize the relationship between form and emptiness and its expression in the mandala as a symbol of the homeostatic nature of the psyche. We will explore the five Buddha families and five elements and their contribution to the psychological nature of wholeness. During this weekend we will also begin to look at the way forward in terms of individual practice and further personal retreat.
This module is open for people who did the previous modules. In fall 2018 Rob Preece will start a new cycle.
Learning Objectives:
- Gain an experience of the nature and meaning of the mandala as a vision of totality
- Explore where personal practice may need to go from here
- Any other business!
