Working with Karma:
Dismantling our Habituated Patterns

With Byakuren Judith Ragir, assisted by Fish Barbara Murphy and Eko Jeff Kelley

We are perfect the way we are, and we need a little improvement.
–Suzuki Roshi

The more you run the pattern, the deeper it gets.
The deeper it gets, the more you run the pattern.
–Pema Chödrön

This is a very practical class on interrupting our habitual patterning. We will each work with one habitual pattern in a systematic approach to opening it up. Bringing non-judgmental attention to bear on the operation of a pattern disturbs its energy and the pattern will naturally start to fall apart.

The class will unpack and work with certain sections of Ken McLoed’s book, Wake Up to Your Life, Shantideva’s The Bodhisattva Way of Life and teachings of Pema Chödrön. Through the dismantling of our self-centered patterns and beliefs, we can find freedom, presence and the freshness of the moment.
