How do we bring out the positive qualities of the
mind and gradually free ourselves of the negative
tendencies that are the source of affliction and uneasiness?
Does a self-curing formula exist to bring a condition
of inner peace, satisfaction and happiness?
In this convention we will try to explore some of
the paths to bring out our interior mental resources
and verify their applicability in the daily life and
in therapeutic practices. We will use the contribution
of experienced Western researchers and Tibetan Lamas,
who represent the living example of such qualities.
The idea is to reflect on how to develop a field
of positive vibrations able to be beneficial in every
situation: both in our relationship with ourselves
and in our relationships with others on different
levels (inter-personal, educational, psychological,
socio-political and health-care). Theoretically, this
field of positive energy should replace our negative
and egocentric tendencies that prove to be a big obstacle
to the inner well being and to our relationships.
We will listen to the different suggestions of the
speakers drawn from their experience.
The development of a similar interior condition is
not only desired in general by everyone, but it is
a particularly needed by healthcare workers, mental
and physical. These workers require efficient skills
to deal with the daily encounters with the sufferance
of their clients in order to prevent "burn-out".
The designation "Convention"
seems to be reductive for this kind of meeting which,
in the intentions of the organizers, would mean to
be a kind of spread apart "rendez-vous"
open to a rich debate and confrontation with wide
space dedicated to workshops. The speakers should
be felt such as "facilitators" or "counselors"
of the workshops.
