About the Event
Working with Negativity
Rather than making ego strength the pinnacle of inner development, the Buddha found that ego-flexibility was a more helpful quality in navigating life's challenges. To find this flexibility, the Buddha taught, we have to overcome the negativity that feeds the ego's obsession with itself. Today's workshop will center on Buddha's strategies for working through emotional pain and negativity. We will spend the day
disentangling ourselves from ourselves, using the Buddha's teachings as guidance. Freedom, the Buddha found, comes from a willingness to be present with things just as they are. This includes those qualities we are seeking to escape from.
