Passionate Neutrality 10:00 a.m. - 1:00 p.m.
"If there is a single, distinguishing quality of a Zen master, Sufi teacher or monk spiritual guide it is his or her capacity to be neutral when passions are high and personal complexes on the loose. We could all benefit from this ability to stay neutral when everything urges us to lose control, let emotions run amok, and get caught in another person’s madness. This skill is useful at work, when counseling others, in friendships and, above all, in marriages. In fact, the case could be made that if people generally could learn this lesson of neutrality, there would be far less conflict and violence.  ... "
Members: $60 / Nonmembers: $75

All is Play 2:30 p.m. - 5:30 p.m.
"...  A sense of play and fun are essential to the good life. But this idea goes against all the heavy, serious psychology so prominent in modern life. There is liberation in the discovery of the importance of play, wit, humor, and games. "
Members: $60 / Nonmembers: $75

Both sessions are at New York Open Center 22 E 30th St., New York City, New York
