This talk explores the nature of love and the implications of loving whatever arises. When we feel love for our own being we are also at the receiving end of our own emotional support and can begin to unravel self judgements. What is the nature of the heart, beyond images and ideas? To open ones heart may be the greatest contribution we can make to life on earth.

PLEASE NOTE: This series of talks is intended for experienced practitioners who have already developed some understanding of and working familiarity with practices of emptiness, samatha, metta, the emotional/energy body, and the imaginal, as well as basic mindfulness practice. In particular, it is strongly recommended that before approaching this set you study and work with the material from the following talks and series: The Theatre of Selves (Parts 1 - 3); Approaching the Dharma, Part 1 (Unbinding the World), and Part 2 (Liberating Ways of Looking); the three-part series Questioning Awakening, Buddhism Beyond Modernism, In Praise of Restlessness; Image, Mythos, Dharma (Parts 1 - 3); An Ecology of Love (Parts 1 - 4); The Path of the Imaginal (Longer Course); and Re-enchanting the Cosmos: The Poetry of Perception. Integrating that previous material and also taking the talks in this new set in their intended order will, for most, support a better and fuller understanding of the teachings from this course.

"wisdom does not inspect, but behold. We must look a long time before we can see." - Henry David Thoreau. The willingness and capacity to feel vulnerable and respond to oneself with kindness is a sacred gateway to being a true human being and to live this earthly life with dignity and depth of being. The practice of meditation is to behold oneself.
