Andy Karr’s INTO THE MIRROR is a guidebook for a Mahayana journey that culminates in shunyata—the empty, luminous nature of reality itself. This is the profound insight that opens the door to freedom. In this class we will investigate ways to overcome materialism and ignorance using powerful methods from Mahayana Buddhism and contemporary philosophy.
In this three-week class, we will first look into methods for cutting the karmic chain reactions that bind us in samsara. Next we will explore contemporary approaches that challenge our materialistic assumptions. From there we will investigate techniques for deconstructing mental fabrications and elaborations. Finally, we will learn how recognizing the basic ground dissolves the foundations of duality.
“This is the universal ground of everything: it is the basis of freedom and also the basis of confusion.”
— Chögyam Trungpa Rinpoche, The Sadhana of Mahamudra
