NAWANG KHECHOG'S WORKSHOP:
" Awakening Kindness "
To Create a Culture of Kindness
WORKSHOP DESCRIPTION:
Kindness, Compassion, and Love. These human values
are the foundation and at the core of the possibility
of humanity's peaceful, harmonious,and happy coexistence
with ourselves, with other species and with nature.
One of the marvels of being human is that we can
nurture and cultivate these human values infinitely.This
workshop is about experimenting with this marvel
& possibility of ours. We will engage in, movement
& walking exercises with kindness & contemplation
, chanting of universal love and compassion , discourse
on the theme subject and universal dance of kindness.
We will also observe a day of kindness for 24 hrs,
starting from the begining of the workshop.
The tools & exercises of this workshop is designed
to experience a taste of our human possibility to
be able to become atleast little bit more kind &
compassionate human,through experimenting with our
basic human truth. His Holiness the Dalai Lama calls
this truth as "human value" and His Holiness
is the shining inspiration of true love and compassion. |
