The What Meditation Really Is Course has been developed by the world-renowned meditation teacher Sogyal Rinpoche after many years of teaching in the West, and with the support of some of his most experienced students. This unique program is based on the wisdom of the Tibetan Buddhist tradition, making the benefits of meditation available to everybody.
The course entails the following six modules:
- Module 1: Introducing What Meditation Really Is
- Module 2: Using our Senses, Thoughts and Emotions as a Support
- Module 3: Dropping the Method
- Module 4: Finding Motivation: Loving Kindness Meditation
- Module 5: The Unifying Practice
- Module 6: Bringing the State of Non-distraction into Life
The 'What Meditation Really Is' course modules contain 5 sessions of teachings each, with one session per week.
Students are assigned to a study group, lead by an experienced instructor. They receive video teachings and workbooks. Students are encouraged to post answers to weekly assignments, which are read and respond to by the instructor. Weekly Skype sessions are also held, and all students are encouraged to meet and discuss what they’ve learned and practice together online.
Students are also encouraged to have their own copy of Sogyal Rinpoche’s book, The Tibetan Book of Living and Dying, as it is often referenced in the course.
