The Game of Life With Dr. Miles Neale

Puzzled by life? This might be the experience for you.

The Buddhist Wheel of Life is an allegorical representation of the ever-changing nature of existence. It depicts how we get trapped in habits that consume and overwhelm us, and how we can liberate ourselves from those distressing patterns. In this Museum-wide experiment and experience, the galleries will become a real-life board game in which the snakes-and-ladders of karma are spurred by your state of mind.

Guided by contemplative psychotherapist Dr. Miles Neale,participants will navigate some moral dilemmas, psychological hurdles, and a few tempting stray-from-the-path red herrings in an attempt to reach the goal: a greater awareness of our state of mind. This is the first run of The Game of Life pilot program. Be the first to try the experience and share your feedback

This image is a contemporary reimagining of the traditional Wheel of Becoming. The Rubin commissioned it from eight graphic artists: Molly Crabapple, Sanya Glisic, Ben Granoff, Rodney Greenblatt, Steven Guarnaccia, Michael Kupperman, Josh Neufeld, and Katie Skelly.
