What is Ihminen tavattavissa?
Ihminen tavattavissa -training program is basicly established to rise individual consciousness. The deepest longing of humanity and of all individual persons is to be known – to be seen and to feel true connection.
In order for me to be able to truly encounter another person, I must face myself and confront my shadow. If I neglect this work, I won’t able to really be in contact with another person. Instead, I will see the other as though distorted through my own unconscious shadow. In this sort of meeting, the other isn’t seen as him- or herself, but is “hijacked” into my own inner drama which is played out without my knowing.
The solution is consciousness – I need to become conscious of my shadow. By becoming more conscious, I am set free to live a life of my own choosing – in freedom and creativity!
It was for this purpose that the four year training program called Ihminen Tavattavissa was founded. The first class met in 2007 and to this date, about 580 people from around Finland have participated or are participating.
Please note that this training program is held only in finnish.
