SUMMARY:In-Person and Online: Rediscovering Your Super Powers - Cultivating the 5 Spiritual Faculties
DESCRIPTION:In-Person and Online: Rediscovering Your Super Powers – Cultivating the 5 Spiritual Faculties \n \nwith Leslie Booker and David Grogan\n \nThursdays\, April 10th – May 15th\, 2025 | 6:30pm – 8:30pm ET\n \nIn-Person Location: New York Insight at 115 West 29th Street\, 12th Floor\n \n\nAs a global community we face tumultuous political and cultural changes that can trigger a range of mixed emotions. You might feel overwhelmed\, stuck\, angry\, or fearful\, as well as a sense of urgency to move into action. \nThe good news is that you already have within you the capacity to empower your practice. The Buddha identified five innate human faculties that can be developed and strengthened into transformative powers for personal and collective liberation from suffering; faith\, energy\, mindfulness\, concentration and wisdom.  \nBalancing the powers to ensure they work as a cohesive system is essential and involves an ongoing process of adjusting and readjusting\, much like fine-tuning an instrument.  \nFaith gives us trust and confidence in the Dharma\, dispelling doubt—and inspires the energy needed to move forward. When energy has found its equilibrium\, then there is much more ease in the body. And from that ease\, there can be continuity of mindfulness\, and when there is steadiness of mind\, concentration grows. As concentration deepens\, in the stillness of an attentive mind\, wisdom emerges. It’s the wisdom of emptiness\, of letting go of all that is not true\, that brings about our liberation.  \nThroughout the course\, we’ll explore each of these powers in practical\, grounded ways—through guided meditation\, relational practice\, and weekly reflection prompts that support integration both on and off the cushion. \nIn-Person Registration:\nPlease register below. If you are able\, registering at the “Supporter” level enables others to attend at the “Subsidized” level. Thank you for your generosity!
