Discover the gems of wisdom inside
Saturday October 27 from 1-3pm
Treasure the text of the heart and the gems of wisdom inside
The title Pratyabhijñā-hṛdayam has been translated in many beautiful ways as “The Splendour of Recognition”, “The Recognition Sutras”, “The Heart of Recognition” and “Divine Consciousness”. The text was written in approximately 10th century by great Kashmir Shaivite Tantric Master Kṣemarāja. In the Kashmir Shaivite non-dual tradition, the term “heart” is used to refer to the core of every being, of the universe, of the cosmos. The heart is the source of everything and is the container for everything. In just 20 gem sūtras, Kṣemarāja offers us an exquisite map that guides us to recognize this innermost treasure depth of the heart. By reciting, contemplating and studying these sūtras over and over again they increasingly disclose to us their brilliant and profound teachings about the magnificence of life beyond the surface. But, according to the tradition, a magnificence, which can be eventually equally experienced at the surface! In this 2-hour seminar Eliot will be expanding the teachings about the five acts of śiva contained in this powerful text. By way of lecture, sūtra recitation, contemplation, and time for questions and answers, students will be guided to understand how the teachings apply to us and support us in our day-to-day lives, our yoga practices and the evolving realization of our highest selves.
