Already Free: Meeting Life Through the Heart of Mahamudra and Dzogchen
Two sessions with David Oromith on a Mahamudra and Dzogchen approach to meeting difficult emotions and thoughts through awareness itself.
When life gets difficult, it’s easy to get swept away by painful emotions and mental stories. We may struggle, resist, or deny our thoughts and feelings. The traditions of Mahamudra and Dzogchen point to another way. Resting in the awareness that is already present, the difficulty has more room around it, and we find more space and clarity. This awareness not only knows, but has a natural warmth and tenderness, a love that arises without reason or condition. Such love can melt away our inner stresses and fears. David Oromith points to this approach and gives a taste of it in practice. The invitation is simple: to recognise the awareness that is already present, and to keep returning to rest in it, on the cushion and in daily life. We see how returning to awareness can become both a practice for recognising our deepest nature, and a practical way of meeting whatever life brings. Both sessions include a talk, guided meditation, and time for questions, with plenty of space to practise. No previous experience is needed, though those who’ve had an introduction to Mahamudra and Dzogchen may find this helpful. Whether you are new to meditation or practise every day, you are warmly welc
