Upaya Sangha of TucsonStudy Group

A Son (Zen) Retreat:  “What is This?”
Stephen Batchelor

Is there something beyond or behind what we experience through our sense faculties? Is there something to be known that is other than what is seen, heard, sensed and cognized?  Over the course of eight meetings, we’ll discuss Stephen Batchelor’s evocative presentations on the nature of emptiness.  The conversations will be framed in the context of what is to be known, what is to be abandoned, what is to be realized, and what is to be practiced.

This course will engage those of you who have a solid grasp of the fundamentals of the Buddhadharma.  Prior to our meetings, you will listen to the recorded sessions and work through a study guide.

Audio of the lectures will be provided to you on a disc.
