Welcome to the Karuna Training Podcast: an exploration of Buddhist contemplative psychology. Join our faculty members as they delve into various topics, sharing their reflections and profound wisdom along the way.
The word Karuna means compassion in Sanskrit. Karuna Training brings together a community of people who trust the wisdom of the world to awaken our compassionate hearts. We can learn to resource ourselves and integrate our experiences to live a more empowered life. The world needs all of our compassion, health, and wisdom.
This class introduces Karuna Training, a program focused on Contemplative Psychology and the integration of elemental magic into everyday life. The discussion explores the unique aspects of Karuna Training, including its roots in Tibetan Buddhism and the significance of the five Buddha family elements. Participants engage in a guided meditation grounded in the five elements and share reflections afterward. The conversation concludes with an invitation to join upcoming classes and the importance of community in the learning process.Please note, this is a recording of a Karuna event.
