We will inquire into these questions by directly witnessing the answers in the body, without relying on prior knowledge.IntensionArrive with the intention to work sincerely and to pour your heart into discovering and developing an inner stamina and composure that is capable of holding, softly allowing and witnessing the arising and passing energies of what is named as thoughts and emotions.Disidentification From the BrainObserving how the self arises from memories.Witnessing the relationship between the thinker (self) and thoughts, emotions, feelings and sensations.Sensing how the brain manufactures artificial intelligence that is self-aware (the self).Considering the possibility that the nature of even the most intense thoughts and emotion may be more mechanical than living.Learning to deescalate the charge and importance of a thought-emotion-feeling-sensation.If the self is made of thought, is it actually alive?The Relation Between Thought, Mind and BodyWhat is a thought beyond an image?How does thought travel in the body?How does thought create sensation?With what speed does thought energy move?Is there a relationship between thought and electricity?Navigating the Labyrinths of ThoughtsIs imagination 3-dimensional?When an image is visualized, does it have width, height, length or depth? Is the space around it also visualized?Is the distance between the image and the observer also imagined?Is the observer also a part of imagination?Is the sense of time also a part of visualized space? How do we discern projected future vs. projected past?What is the relationship between a thought and an emotion? What makes one thought more important than another?How does the thought-created space/time bind to attention?Do thought-emotion energies accumulate in the body’s energy field? What are the implications of this?Can a strong emotional charge be released without action, causation or change to the external circumstances?Is it possible to completely abandon all prior knowledge during introspection?Is it still necessary to seek a way out if the thought-created labyrinth loses it’s solidity?Troubleshooting / Fine-tuning MeditationShort meditation drills with check-ins, feedback and possible suggestions for course correctionExploration of inner experiences, witnessing wealth of information in the seemingly insignificant observationsLodgingIndividual Rooms with shared bathroomsIndividual Rooms with a private bathroom (additional $30 / night)https://vajravidya.com/practical-detailsMealsVegetarian Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner cooked with love by the chefs of the Vajra Vidya Retreat Center.Special diets can be accommodated.SettingQuiet, tranquil, peaceful nature around the beautiful Vajra Vidya Retreat CenterFree TimeHot Springs.

In early twenties he had a flashback to a childhood memory of being miraculously healed from a chronic illness by a touch of a hand. Years later, his thirst for answers took him out of software engineering and through many books, places, people, countries and experiences, eventually settling down to explore within.With many years of an in-depth dedication to meditation, self-inquiry/introspection, healing arts, and somatic practices, he continues to probe into the depth of existence. The direction of his work is set on maturing the capacity to sense with discernment into the subtle sheath of psycho-energetic imprints that span across mental, emotional, physical and energetic domains. Further emphasis is placed on the extraordinary psychosomatic relationship between thought and matter.For over a decade, he has been restoring hearts and sharing his findings via various modalities including developing emotional intelligence, rites of passage work, one-on-one and group self-inquiry sessions, retreats in remote wilderness as well as in the comfort of a meditation center. This work is his labor of deep love and the most sincere blueprint of his individuality.𝗦𝗘𝗡𝗦𝗜𝗡𝗚 𝗔 𝗖𝗢𝗡𝗡𝗘𝗖𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡?If you have any questions, please call / text at 224-300-0499.
