In this episode, Professor Thurman discusses visualization practice and meditation. He explains how the context which you assume will determine how much progress you can make. When you create an imagined enlightened universe, you are making vivid to yourself a preferable image, as well as loosen your own sense of yourself as being limited and incapable of change.
This episode was recorded on July 31, 2015 at the “Buddha and the Yogis” retreat at Menla Mountain Retreat, taught by David Swenson, John Campbell & Robert Thurman.
