Essential Sangharakshita: Conditionality
… or, why did Vimalakirti shut up?
Tuesday, 23 March (6pm) to Sunday, 28 March (after lunch)
With Sagaramati
Open to Order members and Mitras who are serious about Dharma study.
The doctrine of Conditioned Arising is the only doctrine associated with the Buddha’s Awakening. It can be shown to underpin whatever goes by the name of the Dharma, regardless of place and time.
Questions that will be explored:
- How does conditionality fit with the Unconditioned? (Is Nirvana contained in Conditioned Arising?)
- How the Mahayana reformulated conditionality as an answer to the charge of sunyata being nihilistic.
- How to contemplate conditionality.
Suggested donation £150. Accommodation £15/10 per night.
Please book early. Our teachers put a lot of preparation into the seminars — sometimes several weeks of work. We would find it irresponsible to let them do all that and then cancel the even at short notice due to lack of participants.
If you consider attending, but aren’t as yet certain, please let us know. By booking early, you can help us prevent disappointment on all sides.
