POETRY - PRACTICE OF SACRED SPEECH

Second in an Occasional Series

Rose Costello & Cordelia Richards, Co-Teachers

Saturday August 8, 2020

9 am -3 pm Central Time

Offered via Zoom Only

 

β€œThe dreamcrossed twilight between birth and death…”

from Ash Wednesday, by T S Eliot

 

Please join us for a workshopping retreat as we develop a closer, more intimate relationship with the mind of image, which is imagination. Which can also be called sambhogakaya, rolpa, natural expression, sacred speech.

 

IMAGE - response to image

IMAGE - allowing space for image to rise

IMAGE - the energy of natural speech

IMAGE - the dynamic movement from formless to form

We will begin the day with meditation, a place of concentrated attention, where we can meet the mind of image.

We’ll listen to some poems, look at the images to be found there, and feel our response to them. The mind that responds to imagery is the same mind that gives rise to it.

We’ll do some exercises that ask for images to surface. We’ll spend time with what shows itself. We’ll see if a poem results!
