Richard Miller ~ Just Say ÒYesÓ

10 am to 12 noon (Pacific Time – San Francisco, CA, USA) Time Zone Converter

If to say it once, and once only, then still to say: Yes. And say it complete; say it as if the word filled the whole moment with its absolute saying. Later for “but,” Later for “if.” Now only the single syllable that is the beloved, that is the world. ~ Gregory Orr

The role of the six senses is to divide what is ever indivisible. Awakening reveals our 7th sense that knows only unity: ÔThisÕ that is always whole, ever present, that knows only love.

Saying, ÒYes,Ó to each moment affirms our life as unitive love in action. ÒYes,Ó acknowledges our ability to embrace radical authenticity and intimacy with ourselves and with every person and situation we encounter.

Join Richard for this Open Circle online inquiry into our unchanging ground of timeless Being, Awareness, and what lies beyond that underlies and pervades all changing states. RichardÕs presentation entails guided meditation, a talk, and spirited intimate dialogue.

ÒAwakening to nondual Being reveals that all seeking is not for intimacy of object to object, but of the Self with Itself, where no separate other exists.Ó ~ Richard

Richard’s teachings are based upon a lifetime of inquiry into the nature of freedom. Following a series of awakenings all sense of separation fell away while working with his spiritual mentor, Jean Klein. Richard experiences this awakening as always fresh and alive, yet forever opening to itself. Author of iRest Meditation: Restorative Practices for Health, Resiliency, and Well-Being, Yoga Nidra: The Meditative Heart of Yoga, and The iRest Program For Healing PTSD, Richard is the founder of the iRest Institute, and co-founder of the International Association of Yoga Therapists and Institute for Spirituality and Psychology. As well as leading spiritual retreats, Richard is researching the effectiveness of the iRest Meditation protocol that he has developed with soldiers, veterans, students, children, the homeless and people experiencing issues such as PTSD, substance abuse, sleep disorders and chronic pain.
