Healing Festival 18 - 20 August 2017 at Venwoude, Lage Vuursche
This year, we will give a workshop on Friday 18 August during the Healing Festival Gong meditation. During this get-together, we will explain to you the symbolism and functioning of the gong and practise a breathing technique in preparation for our gong meditation.
The gong can be seen as a symbol referring to the Sacred Space which is timeless. Other wordings for this are: the Absolute, the Silence, the Source, the Self. The sounds of the gong can break through the hypnotic effect of thoughts, allowing one to experience that one is not one's thoughts, but merely the observer of them.
The sounds shift attention to the moment as it is. So the tendency to experience the sounds from a mental, emotional or physical story is thereby broken. The Sacred Space fills with the resonating sounds of the gong, making you fully aware of your thoughts and feelings. This awareness happens without any rejection or denial and appears to be a coming and going of thoughts and feelings. In it you recognise your own completeness.
