Emptiness Path
Me without me
Emptying, so that dance can emerge.
Three workshops on emptying. Each step deepens the emptying. What remains when there is no mind, no person-body, no sound, is total availability. The empty body is the body that can receive, perceive, be traversed.
the unnameable empties the mind: it presents the two butoh traditions and the ni space where all duality dissolves. breath empties the body: breathing replaces the person, the lung-body dances without self. silent music empties sound: from noise to silence, from human music to the silence that sings.
Workshops of the path
Each workshop also works on its own. The paths are a guide for those who want to go deeper.
