SUMMARY:Caverly Morgan ~ Liberation Now: From the Progressive Path to Direct Experience
DESCRIPTION:In a progressive path approach to practice\, we sometimes fall for the idea that liberation is in the future. We are conditioned to believe that we must end thinking\, master practices\, meditate for years\, and purify our minds. Without realizing it\, our beliefs can maintain the conditioning that stands in the way of our direct realization. \nTurning our attention outward to various objects in practice can be deeply helpful. And\, what changes when we cultivate our effortless capacity to rest the attention in awareness itself? What changes as we practice inquiry into the nature of consciousness? And what tends to get in the way? \nCaverly Morgan is a meditation teacher\, nonprofit leader\, and visionary. She is the founder and guiding teacher of Presence Collective\, dedicated to igniting personal transformation and collective awakening. She is also the founder and guiding teacher of Peace in Schools — a nonprofit which created the nation’s first for-credit mindfulness class in public high schools. Peace in Schools is pioneering new depths in mindfulness education\, through teaching youth as well as training educators. \nCaverly blends the original spirit of Zen with a modern nondual approach. Her practice began in 1995 and has included eight years of training in a silent Zen monastery. She has been teaching contemplative practice since 2001.\nPrior to her pioneering efforts with Peace in Schools\, Caverly formerly worked for nonprofits serving people with special needs. An artist and educator\, she brings insight\, passion\, warmth and humor to her transformative work with students of all ages and experience levels. \nwww.caverlymorgan.org\n facebook.com/caverlymorgan \nSuggested Donation: $15 – $25
