ACPS #4: rediscovering Compassion (09/22/10)
Class #4 began by answering some questions related to Week 3 materials & concepts (on Gratitude), including …
… personal emPowerment,
… the difference between being Grateful and being merely “happy”, and
… the practical effects of Oneness (“piercing the veil of duality” — what some call enlightenment).
Thereafter, the rest of the evening looked into the deeper implications of Compassion — both in relation to how we can enliven it, as well as what we can expect once we do so.
The class concluded with a hands-on (& hearts-On) exercise that allowed all those present to experience first-hand how it feels to transcend the conventional definitions of kindness and perceive Compassion in one of its purest and most potent forms.
