RELATIONSHIP and YOUR SONG POETICS OF THE IMAGINARY INTUITION & CHOICE BODY OF LIGHT Dream Opening®

RELATIONSHIP and YOUR SONG – online course in English

We live in a dual world, in the world of two, of possible complementary opposites. We cannot not to relate. Even when alone, whatever we focus on, with our consciousness and within our perception, we step into relationship with, be it a blade of grass, a dew drop on it, the entire meadow or a rainbow spanning above it. We are in relationship with Self, Other, and all of creation. One of the fundamental mystical pursuits is how to live in great intimacy with one’s Self, the Other and the mystery. How to connect the right way, is perhaps one the most intriguing questions and one of the greatest challenges. In fact, nothing provokes us more, than our intimate relationships with partner and family.

In this course we will explore these questions through one of the most magnificent and profound mystical texts of the Bible, the Song of Songs. This short illuminating piece analogically speaks about the mystery and the potential of our being with the other, be it our intimate partner or the divine mystery itself. It addresses that which blocks us from finding our own voice and from stepping into the light of the mutual presence to each other and reciprocal exchange. It teaches us to hone our desire and focus our longing so we might find a perfect fit that makes us whole. It teaches us to manage through the periods of the dark night until we become a replenished garden, a fountain ceaselessly irrigating it, arising from the thickness of sleep awakened to love, partaking in its pulsating rhythms.

In the classes we use imagery, short visualizations that affect our feeling body and the subconscious. The images that unfold are both, diagnostic and transformational. They allow us to see our misalignments, habits that block our flow, suppressed emotions, memories that obstruct us, thinking patterns that do not serve us, and transform all these to become Bride ready to go up the mountain and appear like the new dawn.

POETICS OF THE IMAGINARY – online course in English

In this course we will explore the emergent language embodied in your artistic form as well as in your writing about your own art, your own poetics. Like the specific hexagon shape of the honeycomb emerges due to the material conditions of wax and surface tension; What is then the singular artistic form that emerges and materialises from your artistic practice and its creative conditions? And what is the form of writing that emerges from the materiality of your embodied practice and conveys in a more complex way the knowledge gained through artistic endeavor and research?

If you have an idea you wish to develop, the artistic research you are currently conducting, the art project you’re presently working on, or the poetics you are currently writing, this just might be the course for you. It will facilitate the framework, in which you can alone and together with others cross-examine your artistic language in becoming, as well as the poetics of our own art making. It will offer tools to explore these through imagery, dream and writing exercises, as well as through reading and discussion of dream related texts.

What people say:

“Poetics of imaginary transported me into a wonderful world of images, bubbling up from different corners of my body, guiding and inspiring my creative process. I have never written a book before and the process helped me crystallise my ideas and structure for the book with a feeling of effortless flow. It felt softer, more intuitive, creative and explorative than a more rational and planning approach to writing that is more traditional in the research world. Even the people that somehow appeared in my dreamy images turned out to be the right collaborators that I needed to compose the project with. The course made me very curious to further explore how I can access, grasp, and use the wisdom and unconscious material hidden in me that I´m often not aware of in my daily life but can interestingly inform, and inspire my creative processes, especially if the process is facilitated as it was in this course by Mala.” Nina

“POTI challanged me to see my current art project from different perspectives and has given me support in reshaping the project into a dream work. As an artist i am often in a rush of “giving to the people” while this course helped me see that “receiving from people” is powerful mission if addressed as intention. Mala’s way of guidence led me in to vivid insights that have always been part of my inner realm, hidden knowledge that has awakened through structured and accurate process of choosen imagery scores. The course opened my mindset and the concept of the project into lively organism that is playful and joyful confronting the expectations of others or other production pressures. I am grateful for the lessons that most of all made me grow as a person.” Hana

“One of the most important things for me was the exercise to find our own egg – it reminded why I do what I do, and that is because of the feeling that occurs to me in the moment of creation or discovery. The egg exercise proposed: the feeling will guide you. I also appreciate a lot that Mala has reminded me to become aware of the principles, techniques and methods that organise my work. I am constantly balancing between wanting to define them and wanting to let them be unknown to me, as the map which I am constantly making. And finally, what I appreciate a lot is the way Mala weaves the culture and tradition into the personal, casting light on the universal in human nature and unveiling the most beautiful aspects of the tradition beyond ideology.” Nikola
