The Compassionate Life: Journey into Wholeness

May 27 - 30, 2010

Barasch

Presented by: Marc Ian Barasch

  • Spiritual Development

Co-sponsored by the Dalai Lama Center.
 
Take a four-day journey into wholeness and healing. Learn the power of dreams, intuition and synchronicity. Explore the healing process through the study of remarkable recoveries and Marc’s own profound experiences with life-threatening illness. Participate in experiential dream groups. Learn to cultivate compassion, which heals us of alienation. What can we learn from exceptionally empathetic people? Can we increase our compassion quotient with practice? How do we open our hearts to those who do us harm? Finally, in a time of global crisis, how do we help to heal our world, and address the urgent problems of our time with kindness, integrity, and authenticity? Throughout, participants listen deeply to each other and learn to use the principle that Carl Jung, borrowing from ancient alchemists, called the Unus Mundus.
