This Online Introduction to Insight Dialogue is a six-week offering that covers the six Insight Dialogue relational meditation guidelines using Dhamma teachings as a contemplative frame. All are welcome. Prior meditation experience recommended.
The program focuses on the core elements of this relational Dhamma practice. Each week will include instruction on individual guidelines and relational meditation practice through dialogue. The practice is grounded in satipatthana, the four foundations of mindfulness, the same foundation as silent Insight meditation. What is offered will be informed by the Three Bases of Insight Dialogue: the wisdom teachings of the Buddha, meditative qualities, and the power of relationship.
Participants will meet for six consecutive weeks in real-time via Zoom for 1 hour and 45 minutes with an opportunity for an additional 15 minutes for questions and reflections. This offering requires zoom. We ask that your camera be turned on at all times, and your voice must be easily heard during practice sessions. For part of the offering, there will be practice in breakout rooms with one or two partners.
Most Insight Dialogue practice groups have a prerequisite of completing an introduction to Insight Dialogue offering. In order to meet this requirement of completion you must attend all sessions.
