π Visayans, islanders of the ‘Philippines,’: Did you know that the concept of visaya is found in ancient texts of Yoga, Ayurveda, Tantra, and Buddhism?
π In this decolonial workshop, we will explore the philosophy of visaya across oceans of embodied wisdom. Through spiritual & historical unity of Yoga, we will integrate meditative practices in our inquiry. Between visa as ‘poison’ & vijaya as ‘victory’ in Sanskrit, beyond colonial space-time, may we rediscover our inner islands of sensory delight & detachment…
ποΈ Although briefly tracing transoceanic linkages to Visayan islands & Philippines archipelago, this offering is not intended as merely a historical lecture. Our aim is to approach VISAYA through contemplative inquiry & Yoga practice, expanding our connection to sacred sources of truth.
πΒ You will receive:
- Video Recording (2 hours & 25 minutes) – includes research & embodied inquiry
- Presentation Slides
- Research References
- List of Yoga Practices
- Link to book a <45-minutes integration session
We will look at VISAYA as:
π [knowable] object of experience [separate from object of desire]
πΈ pleasures of the senses
π worldly objects [that inspire not attachment to desire but intention on patient seeking of truth]
πͺ· object known through sensory experience
π₯ locus of objective content [to make apparent the illusion in non-presentation form]
ποΈ a district or region of a kingdom
ππ½ This is for you if you are:
π a Filipino, or of Visayan heritage
π a new or expert Yoga practitioner, wishing for decolonial approach
π an islander wishing to deepen connection to roots in embodied practice
