S010E02 Cutting Through The Root — Class 2

The class runs a series of exercises - a playing card brought slowly into view, an espresso cup that turns out to hold water, a hand raised with the eyes shut - to show how little of any experience is perceived rather than filled in from memory. The point is not that concepts are the enemy, but that taking them for the thing itself is. In this series of teachings, Lama Mark Webber is giving instruction on "Cutting Through The Root". The teachings were given in 2012.
