The great awakening for which we may spend a lifetime searching is actually quite simple: Everything is just the way it is, an innately perfect, sacred, and indivisible whole, whose essence is empty, conscious, and filled with love. The recognition that this is what I am, not the dream character I take myself to be, frees us from a lifetime of suffering and identification and awakens us to our inherent happiness and peace of mind. Yet the journey to this realization and its embodiment may be infinitely challenging as the result of our psychological complexity and the difficulties we face as individuals. This is one of the core messages of my new book, Infinite Awakening.

Join me for a brief exploration of how the pathless path unfolds and the infinite awakenings we encounter along the way. I’ll be offering guided meditations and pointers from the book, discussion of how the book came to be, ample time for dialogue and Q&A, and insights from key chapters on: the stages of awakening; the pros and cons of teachers; preparing the path; welcoming what is; trauma and awakening; and awakened relationships.

Participants will receive an excerpt from the book.
