MAIN ELEMENTS

There will be three main DL teaching areas during the day. The structure aims to give participants a comprehensive understanding of the psychological dynamics at play and how they can be navigated post-retreat. The teaching on Essence will be crucial for empowering them to apply these learnings in a practical and sustained way.

Each session will concentrate on a different aspect of:

the Ego Self & the Superego: We will deepen our understanding of the relationship between the ego and superego and how disconnection from the real self manifests in daily life. Participants will gain insight into their self-image and learn to identify and navigate ego-driven behaviors.

the Essence: We will concentrate on “Strength – Red” and “Will – White” aspects of DL. This is intended to resource the students with tools and perspectives that are particularly beneficial once they return to their daily lives. By understanding and tapping into their inner strength and will, participants can more effectively apply assertiveness, setting boundaries and embodying courage and authenticity in various life situations. Embodying these aspects in context of knowing the True Self will greatly support the participant to implement their realisation within their life.

PRESENCE-BASED SELF ENQUIRY: After each DL teaching block, a self-inquiry session will follow, allowing participants to integrate the material. In this segment, we will build upon the techniques and insights you have already acquired during the Enlightenment Intensive Retreat. We will introduce several additional elements that will enhance the efficacy of the practice. This extension of your learning will involve refining and deepening your approach to self-inquiry, ensuring a more potent and impactful experience.

GUIDED MEDITATIONS: Participants will experience the added benefit of meditation sessions led by Peter Harper, deepening the learning experience and promoting mental clarity and inner peace.

INTERACTIVE Q & A SESSION: an open space for participants to share, ask or clarify their experience.
