Live Lecture scheduled for 16-03-2025: Inside is outside and outside is inside
Live Lecture: Inside is outside and outside is inside.
The world we live in is the world as we experience it.
In that sense, our entire world is not an 'outside world', because we are already mentally up to our ears in it: the world around us is only given to us as a personal experience. Our world is our world of experience. If there were such a thing as personal enlightenment, then that also concerns the world around us.
This vision is central to Mahayana Buddhism; not as just an idea, but as a vision that can support our meditation practice and enable us to hold the world, with all its joys and pains, close to our hearts.
This lecture is about how this vision helps to free us from short-sightedness, hard-heartedness and fear of life.
Dr. Han de Wit is a dharma teacher in the tradition of secular Buddhism of Shambhala and author of, among others, 'The Hidden Blossoming', 'The Lotus and the Rose' and 'The Open Field of Experience'.
