Mark Ovland: Beyond Awakening - on Rob Burbea, Buddhism and Loving-Kindness
Manage episode 437263253 series 2862534
Mark grew up in the UK as an atheist, but then spent a year as a monk in India after a powerful and unexpected spiritual awakening. He now teaches insight meditation inspired by the late Rob Burbea, with a focus on understanding the emptiness of all things and the ways in which changing our ways of looking can reduce suffering and enhance the beauty of life. He offers teachings freely, living frugally in a caravan in the UK, from donations from those who appreciate what he offers.
He'll be teaching a freely-given 6-week course on Loving Kindness Meditation online in October: https://dandelion.events/e/e92bd
In this episode, we discussed:
Mark's background and awakening
The phenomenology of the awakening
Having no sense of self
Going beyond non-dual awakening
Meeting the guru: Rob Burbea
Emptiness
Why you should care
+ A guided lovingkindness meditation!
