S009E17 Contemplating The Nature Of Illusion — Class 17

Synopsis

The class takes up the gandharvas' cloud-city, a mirage-city of celestial musicians that fades at sunrise, and puts the series' strongest claim: that the solid world is no firmer. Like Sherlock Holmes or Narnia it is a collective projection, held in place because so many minds share it, and the self on the same account is a character the storytelling mind constructs. In this series of teaching, Lama Mark Webber is giving instruction on the nature of illusion. He is using a number of classic images like the moon in the water, a mirage, dream and others. The teaching was given in 2012. Short table of contents: E01 Introduction. E02 Bodhicitta. E03 Emptiness and Compassion. E04 View, Progress and Signs. E05 Intro and Dew Drops. E06 Magical Illusion.
