The state of Unity and the realization that we are all inherently connected dominates spiritual teachings. Oneness is contained within the Enneagram symbol itself. But what allows this teaching to become real and integrated? What is it that blocks this experience and what supports it? We might start by asking "Who is the one connecting?" and "What does one connect from?" Thus, this session focuses on heart consciousness.
The emerging body of work named EnneaCrossings(TM) integrates two powerful symbols that reflect the spiritual journey: the Enneagram and the cross-cultural cross. This integrative symbol helps us move toward less self as we have known it and toward non-duality and interconnectedness. It includes four intersections between our horizontal (finite) and vertical (Infinite) natures. For this session, we focus on the intersection of Communion which links Enneagram points 7 and 2 and connects directly with the heart center.
You are invited to use a personally relevant question as a reflective touchstone throughout this session which includes lecture, meditation, inquiry and somatic awareness. The ever-present dynamic of push-pull between our finite and Infinite natures is especially evident in the heart center, along with the potential for reconciliation.
