DHS401 Visions of Enlightenment

This workshop explores the unique ways that a fully awakened being manifests. First, we look at Tibetan art as a vital embodiment of enlightenment, examining the ways in which awakened qualities are depicted. We also work with mantra (ways to merge sound with awakened awareness) and Tibetan meditations that evoke the Buddha. Finally, we consider three specific aspects to a Buddha’s embodiment: the Dharmakaya, the Sambhogakaya, and the Nirmanakaya.
