“Suchness: Understanding Conditions and Responding with Compassion,” a Daylong Retreat with Heather Sundberg

Sunday January 26th, 10am – 3:30pm on Zoom (with lunch break Noon – 1pm)

In this daylong we will explore the Subtle Characteristic of Suchness from the following perspectives:

  • Using the Buddha’s teaching to Bahiya as well as the teaching of the Two Arrows, and teachings on Conditionality.
  • Exploring practices from the Thai forest tradition, including Ajahn Sumedho’s famous teaching ‘It’s like this’.
  • Deepening the Heart Practice of Compassion.
  • Deepening inner Resiliency through Somatic Practices.

Heather Sundberg has taught insight meditation since 1999, and completed the Spirit Rock/IMS Teacher Training program under Jack Kornfield and Joseph Goldstein. She has been a visiting teacher for Dharma Zephyr daylongs and residential retreats since 2011. As a teacher, Heather’s style is warm and practical. She emphasizes embodiment, awareness-emptiness and including strong heartfulness in practice. She carries an interesting combination of supporting a ‘less is more’ easeful style of practice, plus a passionate ‘no holds barred’ attitude about awakening.

A number of Dharma Zephyr community members train with Heather in her ongoing MahaSati Awareness-Emptiness Training programs for experienced students. For more information or to learn how to apply see: www.mahasati.info.
