"Yes good point. I'm interested in improving the quality of my work as a therapist. Do you have a schedule posted somewhere that lists when and where you will be doing workshops like the one you just finished in Korea ? Thank you."
""Life Coaching" is in vogue now...not sure what that it is, but they advertise themselves as "different from therapy" with "quicker results". It's a bit sad really to manipulate clients in this way in my opinion."
"The topic of "prisons" and "efforts to control" stood out to me in this posting. Sometimes "prisons" seem beyond our control and those can be especially painful. I'm thinking of a client who had a terminal illness and had no control over her body…"
"Thank you for these posts Dharmavidya. I'm enjoying reading and learning about what's going on in the training. "

In the crevice of the rock
This morning begins to melt

"Hi Dharmavidya,
Can you say more about "It is not good therapy to reassure or try to sooth the pain away". It seems like some of that happens naturally on the part of the therapist, whether they are consciously trying to or not ?
Thank you."

"Ok got it thank you :)"

"Thank you Charlene. Yes good ideas."

"Thank you Dharmavidya for your response.
The client I am thinking about is a 21yo woman who is feeling emptiness in the way that you suggested, which is a "fear of ending up alone with nobody that cares". The client reports growing up with parents…"

"It seems that Trump has very cleverly used the Skandhas to achieve his own ends. During the campaign he repeatedly presented carefully chosen rupas, to trigger particular vedana and samjna reactions amongst the people. Then these people got together…"
"Trump was a reality tv star for a number of years on American television. Observing him during that time on the show, he always did everything he could to (1) boost his own ego and image, and (2) enhance his business interests/profits. I wonder how…"
"Yes in the US the assailant is labelled a "sex offender" for life and the victim can be stuck in the label of "victim of sexual assault" also possibly for life. A question I often hear from victim is "why me...why did this have to happen to me?"…"
"Any ideas on how to help a client when their rupa is a traumatic event, such as a sexual assault for instance ?
How would a therapist help the client to see the dharma behind the rupa in such a case ?"
