Boundless Heart – Part Two

The Somatic Practice of Bodhicitta

Connection, Communication, and Love

Through the somatic practice of bodhicitta, we come to know our natural state and discover that it is utterly open, filled with luminosity and the energy of awareness. Here we access the most fundamental love welling up within us, longing to be offered to the world.

The Boundless Heart – Part Two online course guides students further into the third yana, dedicated to awakening our hearts. It offers experiential training in the core somatic teachings and practices of this lineage.

This second part allows us to refine our somatic awareness by further tapping into the subtle warmth and wisdom of our heart. Through embodied bodhicitta (or awakening heart) practices, we discover the heart as the source of wisdom within our body. This course explores relative bodhicitta.

Boundless Heart – Part Two is part of the Dharma Ocean Foundation Series. These Foundation Courses are designed to be incremental, with each course building on the practices of the previous ones.
