SUMMARY:Reason and Mystery; Two Lenses on the Same Reality\, 7-day meditation course
DESCRIPTION:Online \n$54 | $47 Early bird\, use promo code MEDITATE\, exp. 3/30/26 \nBook now/OnlinePlease register in advance; a Zoom link will be emailed 1 hour before the session\, or join Zoom directly via your Momence dashboard. \nJoin Diana Meltsner—meditation teacher and teacher trainer—online for seven morning meditations and brief talks\, held daily from Monday\, April 6\, through Sunday\, April 12\, 2026. These sessions will focus on developing meditation that integrates two perspectives: Analysis and Mystery.\nA life lived solely in analysis becomes brittle; a life lived solely in faith becomes ungrounded. But a life that can move fluidly between these modes becomes flexible\, resilient\, and wise. Can our meditation hold both perspectives?\nThe Analytical Mode asks:\n• What is happening right now?\n• What is the process here?\n• What is skillful or unskillful?\nThe Mystical Mode asks:\n• Can I be with this without needing to know?\n• Can I trust the unfolding moment?\n• What if the deepest truths are felt rather than understood?\nKena Upanishad:\n“It is known to the one who does not know it.\nIt is unknown to the one who thinks he knows.”\nWe will explore practices that cultivate both the intellect and the mystical heart:\n• Meditation that develops a narrow focus—grounded in analysis\, discernment\, and clear seeing\n• Open-awareness meditation rooted in faith\, mystery\, and living in the question\nThese practices foster different types of attentiveness. Each expands our perception of reality and reflects the brain’s dual hemispheric functionality\, which supports complex cognition\, balanced behavior\, and true discrimination—viveka.\nMeditation\, talk\, discussion\, and sharing will be included. Some experience with meditation is required.\nDiana’s recent blog on this topic.\nAll sessions will be recorded and shared with participants for later viewing on a daily basis.\n\nDiana Meltsner\, C-IAYT\, ERYT-500\, YACEP\, has been teaching a variety of classes and workshops since 2001 and since 2017 offers yoga therapy sessions privately and at Integral Yoga Therapy Clinic in San Francisco.
