Seminar 68 Night Blooming - How Suffering Can Become a Path to Awakening
In times of grief, the world we once knew can suddenly feel unfamiliar. Loss may leave us searching for meaning, connection, and a way forward. Yet across Buddhist traditions and contemporary psychology alike, suffering is not understood merely as something to endure, but as a profound ground for transformation.
“Night Blooming” is an invitation to reflect on how grief, compassion, and spiritual practice can open unexpected pathways toward healing and awakening. Drawing from Buddhist wisdom, psychological insight, and a real story of bereavement care, this seminar explores how moments of darkness may also become conditions for resilience, tenderness, and post-traumatic growth — like a flower quietly blooming in the middle of the night.
We warmly invite you to join us for an event of thoughtful conversation, contemplation, and shared humanity.
