A Spiritual Journey into the Imaginal Realm
A Wisdom way of knowing is about using our whole being to see. We can prepare our hearts to awaken (and re-awaken) and perceive using “more of us,” not just “knowing more.” Our heart knows the way.
In our 4-month book discussion group (across 5 Tuesdays), working with Cynthia Bourgeault’s book Eye of the Heart, we will intentionally cultivate Wisdom knowing through:
- Grounding in the practices of a Wisdom Circle
- Supportive group discussions facilitated by seasoned Wisdom practitioners examining a few chapters a month
- Mindful attentional practices/Inner Tasks
- Meditation
- Body movements and sacred gesture
This Wisdom Book Practice Circle is designed for seekers who want to cultivate a deeper connection with the Wisdom tradition which lies at the headwaters of all sacred paths. As we come together in community, seeking inspiration and practices for our awakening, we will leave with a felt sense of our deepening presence and how we can be of service in the world.
In Eye of the Heart, Cynthia Bourgeault investigates the imaginal realm–an energetic realm well known to the mystical traditions but often forgotten in our own times. It is invisible to the physical eye, but clearly perceptible through the eye of the heart. The imaginal realm has long been associated with the personal world of dreams, prophecy, and oracles, and it also points toward a higher vision of our human purpose that is both evolutionary and collective. Bourgeault explores both aspects of imaginal reality and shows readers how we can cooperate more fully with its guidance in our lives. Eye of the Heart presents Bourgeault’s spiritual journey with the imaginal realm and encourages readers to attune their hearts for the well-being of the world.
