SUMMARY:The European Community - Alumni Association
DESCRIPTION:Hello dear European Community members\, \nI am happy to announce that the April meeting is going to be facilitated by Ruth Phillips who is going to guide us in the captivating exploration of how various fields such as neuroscience\, Eastern and Western medicine\, Buddhism and yoga meet in the area of interception or feeling tone (Vedāna in the Pāli language). Ruth offers us some resources as orientation for the upcoming conversation: \n1. The following quotes: \n“Feeling tone is the start of our experience unfolding. It has been described as a master key because if it is unlocked\, then reactivity is stemmed at its source.” (Joseph Goldstein) \n“«Interoception»\, the constant monitoring of the state of the body\, carries on largely below the level of conscious awareness. But it is absolutely crucial\, because it determines affect – those feelings of pleasantness or unpleasantness\, arousal or non-arousal that are always present\, and which feed into our emotions.”Lisa Feldman Barrett \n“When enough equanimity is present\, we can stop the cycle (of dependent arising) after vedanā and be with sensory contact and feelings without further reactivity. This non-reactive presence is the heart of both meditative tranquility (samatha) and insight (vipassanā).” (Sean Oakes) \n2. An interview with renown neuroscientist and psychologist Lisa Feldman-Barrett \nhttps://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/worklife-with-adam-grant/id1346314086?i=1000641458657 \nThe April meeting will take place in the new time window from 6 pm to 7:30 pm CET on April 3rd (the first Wednesday of the month). \nJoin Zoom Meeting \nhttps://us06web.zoom.us/j/6678748357?pwd=obXFYfbwQPbQDDpVn6gOUrHRUN7clZ.1&omn=81767516094 \nMeeting ID: 667 874 8357 \nPasscode: mindful \nI hope you’ll join us to engage with this thought-provoking theme\, and I’m very curious about where the discussion will take us! \nWith gratitude\, \nRobert
