Awakening and Authentic “Self”: Talk

Wild Heart Detroit

About

In this talk, we explore how the language of Internal Family Systems (IFS) and Buddhist meditation both point toward the same inner truth — the natural wisdom that arises when the mind is no longer entangled in struggle. Through the lens of the 8 C’s of Self and the Seven Factors of Awakening, we explore how qualities like calmness, curiosity, and compassion support the mind in unblending from parts and returning to balance.


Prompt: What is a moment/memory where you felt fully present and tapped into your true Self (your buddha nature)?


Talk segment that complements the sit portion on Awakening and Authentic Self.
