The Introduction to Insight Dialogue is an three-week offering introducing the six meditation guidelines of Insight Dialogue: Pause, Relax, Open, Attune to Emergence, Listen Deeply & Speak the Truth. Each week will include instruction on two guidelines and experienced directly in contemplative dialogue practice. What is offered will be informed by the 3 Bases of Insight Dialogue: wisdom factors, meditative qualities, and relationality.
Insight Dialogue is an interpersonal meditation practice that brings together meditative awareness, the wisdom teachings of the Buddha, and relationship. It has the same purposes and traditional roots as silent meditation: developing mindfulness, compassion and liberating insight, while investigating present moment experience.
The practice will be offered in english language; German practitioners are however welcome to join the group.
Gregory Kramer developed the practice of Insight Dialogue and has been teaching it since 1995. Further information: Insight Dialogue Community (IDC)
