SUMMARY:Zoom dance - Non Duality
DESCRIPTION:First in our series with Eric Putkonen \n\n \nWhat is non-duality? \nNon-duality is covered in a lot of different traditions. It comes from Advaita Vedanta primarily\, because what we call non-duality is derived from Advaita. which means “Not two.” But other traditions study it as well. Buddhism\, Sufis and Dervishes talk about non-duality. \nIn a nutshell\, poetically\, you could say there is just oneness\, there is no other\, there is no second. This however brings up the idea of a me\, an individuality\, with a center of some kind. That’s two. It is but an illusion obscuring the fact that there’s just oneness there’s unicity only. \nNon-duality can be challenging for people who are studying it because it feels like you’re always being told no. No… it’s not that. No it’s not this. \nIt is hard to grasp for a lot of people because most spiritual traditions\, and the way we interact in the world\, is from a dualistic separation. A “me” with a point of view. There’s always a “me” trying to get somewhere. There’s a “me” trying to get something. There’s a “me” trying to become. In non-duality\, instead\, you’re just realizing you’re that and seeing that the false is false. \nSo you’re seeing that this “me” isn’t who and what you are. This other doesn’t exist and there is simply the inherent nonduality\, conscious self\, ultimate reality … pick your term. \nWednesday\, July 6\, 2022\, 7PM Mountain Daylight Time \n\nRegister in advance for this meeting: \nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZcof-mvpz8qE9IV40s13K2CA80mX-azQVeR \nAfter registering\, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the meeting. \n\n\n\nRegister\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNon DualityCease DoingQ&A\n\n\n\nBack to Meetings With Remarkable Beings

SUMMARY:Zoom dance - Ceasing to Do
DESCRIPTION:Second in our series with Non-dulaity teacher Eric Putkonen \n\n\n\nSaturday morning July 16\, 2022\, 10am MT \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCeasing to do \n\n\n\nI tend to talk a lot about ceasing to do because it is helpful to minimize our volitional action. Basically this “me” that is constantly trying to do just reinforces the feeling of a “me” trying to do something and get somewhere. \n\n\n\nThis ceasing to do can start in very very simplistic ways. We typically do so much more than is even necessary. I mean\, if you just check your own posture for example. If you’re sitting or standing perfectly upright it requires very little muscle to stay upright\, but if you’re leaning we have to do a lot to fight gravity or we’ll collapse. \n\n\n\nSo in the basic idea of ceasing to do you’re trying to minimize what it would take to stay up. This puts you perfectly in alignment\, posture wise\, for gravity to to keep you up without falling over. \n\n\n\nIt also would mean\, as some zen people will talk\, about doing one thing at a time. If you’re sitting\, you’re just sitting. You’re not doing anything. Likewise\, if you’re mowing the lawn – just mow the lawn. No more. No less. You don’t need to be thinking about what you need that to do afterwards. You don’t need to think about what transpired earlier dredging up the past. You don’t need a daydream. You can just turn it into a walking meditation\, where you’re just walking and you happen to be pushing this mower along. \n\n\n\nLikewise with Tai Chi\, dance movements\, whatever you’re doing. Just do that\,. Be 100 devoted to the feeling experiencing of just that\, and not doing anything else. Not referring to past\, future daydreaming. Not doing extra things. I mean\, if you’re doing a specific dance movement or Tai Chi movement for example you don’t need to add an extra twirl in there when it’s not supposed to be in there. \n\n\n\nNo extraneous movements. No extraneous thinking. Just ceasing everything but that motion in that time and place in the here and now. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhen: Jul 16\, 2022 10:00 AM Mountain Time (US and Canada) \n\n\n\nRegister in advance for this meeting: \n\n\n\nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZElf–tpj0qGterQukVdLujVOS4VD82Ay8K \n\n\n\nAfter registering\, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the meeting. \n\n\n\n\nRegister\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNon Duality\nCease Doing\nQ&A\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMeetings With Remarkable Beings

SUMMARY:Q&A with Eric Putkonen
DESCRIPTION:How do you come up with a question? Does it matter what we ask? \n\n\n\nI would say it’s best not to ask about hypotheticals. You want to try to make any question asked relevant to yourself not other people. If you ask a question like “How could you go with this philosophy”\, it doesn’t really apply. \n\n\n\nThat’s basically the fruit of a of a Q&A session\, or a satsong as I sometimes give them. The should pertain to you. It should be relevant to you. Not hypothetical\, or about other people\, or about the world. It could be about how you interact with the world but not about the world minus you. \n\n\n\nSo try to make the the the questions relevant to yourself. But if you you may have a question simply arise ask it. Like a question on ceasing to do or my understanding of nonduality. You may be finding there’s an obstacle or a pitfall or you don’t quite understand. How to do something\, how to put it in practice\, or how to understand something. The question arises as we talk. Those are usually the most valuable questions. \n\n\n\nTuesday Evening July 19\, 2022\, 6:00pm MDT \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nZoom Invitation \n\n\n\nWhen: Jul 19\, 2022 06:00 PM Mountain Time (US and Canada) \n\n\n\nRegister in advance for this meeting: \n\n\n\nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZYscO-vqzsuE9cC7cwvNTy-dX2IWnswo3B2 \n\n\n\nAfter registering\, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the meeting. \n\n\n\n\nRegister\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNon DualityCease DoingQ&A\n\n\n\nMeetings With Remarkable Beings
