Why another Healing and Awakening retreat?

The theme of Healing and Awakening brings together two waves of consciousness unfolding: the Eastern and now also Western wave of non-dual spiritual teachings, and the Western wave of healing the pain of humanity through the development of ever new forms of therapy and healing. While traditional non-dual teachings stress the need to transcend the limited self that feels a need for healing, it is remarkable that many Western non-dual teachers are or have also been therapists and healers. When we look at the essence of healing, it is an intrinsic part of healing the psyche that awareness evolves by transcending its limitation by unquestioned conditioning and beliefs. So in healing there is a movement of consciousness out of limitation into the freedom of Being, of living life truly in the moment. In fact, in new forms of therapy inspired and informed by non-dual understanding, true Self, true Being, can be discovered, just as it can be discovered through non-dual spiritual teachings.

This retreat is an opportunity to come together from all over the world as a virtual sangha (community), to explore this fertile ground of Healing and Awakening in our own lives. It is also an opportunity to hear non-dual spiritual teachers, many of whom are or have also been therapists and healers, reflect on this topic and share their insights. And most of all, it is an opportunity to participate in satsang, a gathering for and in Truth. As we sit and inquire with teachers whose sharing arises from Truth, a potent field of awareness arises that has the power to transform and help us shift out of the limited perspective of the separate self. The unique expression of Truth, by each of the teachers, adds richness, variety, and depth to the inquiry throughout the weekend, like a bouquet of flowers compared to the unique beauty of a single one.

The wonder and gift of the internet is that it allows us to gather in satsang no matter where we are on this planet. It also gives you the opportunity to participate live by asking questions and interacting with the teachers. The typical format of the sessions will be a first part where I am in conversation with the teachers about the specific topic for the session, and a second part where you are invited in with your questions and comments (either by YouTube comment thread, or by coming onto the Google hangout directly).

I look forward to sharing this retreat with you! You can register for it right here:
