SUMMARY:Uncovering the Illusion of Self
DESCRIPTION:Sunday July 6\, 2025 – Sunday July 27\, 2025   Zoom Only \nIn Recognizing the False I\, Lama Zopa Rinpoche provides a clear and practical guide to one of the most crucial steps in meditating on emptiness: identifying the object to be refuted. Before we can realize the true nature of reality\, we must first learn to recognize how we instinctively grasp at a solid\, independent “I”—what Rinpoche calls “the false I.” This mistaken perception fuels suffering and keeps us bound in samsara\, yet it often goes unnoticed in our everyday experience. \nThis course offers an experiential approach to understanding and applying these profound teachings. Through guided meditations\, self-reflective exercises\, and group discussions\, participants will: \nLearn to observe and identify the “false I” as it appears in their own thoughts and emotions. \nDevelop practical skills for loosening habitual clinging to a fixed sense of self. \nEngage in meditative techniques that reveal the illusory nature of the inherently existent “I.” \nExplore how seeing through this illusion leads to greater freedom\, flexibility\, and compassion in daily life. \nWhether you are new to the study of emptiness or looking to deepen your understanding\, this course provides practical tools to directly engage with these teachings and apply them in a meaningful way. \nOpen door\, open heart – drop in anytime in person or via Zoom. Donations are always optional.
