The Mini-Series: Psychology of Meaning offers guidance and direction to those seeking a fuller understanding of life's possibilities. Carlos de León explores the human condition, from both psychological and spiritual perspectives.
Happiness and Meaning are both cherished pursuits and the essential elements of well-being. They may also be part of our inherent existential rights, but the path is not always clear. Our search for meaning reflects a nearly universal desire to understand the nature of our existence and to feel it as significant and purposeful. With good fortune, we find the doorway leading to a deeper sense of self.
Happiness and Meaning correlate strongly. The more we find one, the more we experience the other. We want answers to the big questions: Who am I? Why am I here? What is truly important to me? What am I supposed to do with my life? Modern life offers us answers, many of which produce only illusory happiness and an absence of meaning.
The challenge is to find a path that balances Happiness and Meaning coherently and creates a fusion of Joy and Hope. It is a project that requires us to heal our illusions, accept our finiteness, our limitations, and release expectations, while simultaneously recognizing our infinity! One might say, to reveal to ourselves our True Nature and its manifestation in love and awareness.
In this series, you are invited to explore different approaches related to meaning, in order that you find something useful for your own personal quest. The kind of meaning that brings transcendent joy has to be found in your unique and particular way.
As always in Ontogony, we approach the issue using several models and traditions. Providing an ample spectrum for understanding and exploration, I selected four approaches with distinct and different flavours.
Teachings are further complemented by experiential online group practices to help ignite the beginning and/or strengthen your connection to Meaning. Whether you are new to the Ontogony Teachings, or you are an advanced practitioner of one of the paths, this series is designed to illuminate and further the course of your journey.
