The Art of Letting Go
— Peter Russell —
Ballroom
The essential wisdom of the world's spiritual traditions might be summed in two words: Let Go. To find true freedom, we need to let go of our fears, judgments, assumptions and attachments. These are all creations of the mind; they have no independent existence. So why do we hold on to them? How can we let go? Peter will explore the challenges of letting go. What is it we really want? And why aren't we getting it? How can we step behind the thinking mind to subtler levels of consciousness? What does it take to be more in the present moment? How can we listen better to the still quiet voice within?
