PROGRAM PREMISE

“Freedom, our birthright, is the true purpose of this life” ~Neelam

In this year’s six month program the invitation is to come into a deeper Surrender, Awakening and Freedom. Through recognizing the role of the NS in Awakening and Freedom we will deepen the ever present invitation into Surrender, create an auspicious ground for Awakening and Freedom, strengthen and enliven our Inquiry and Embodiment and grow the capacity of our NS to Be Here.

The Desire for Truth and Freedom, like Presence itself, is already always Here. It manifests as an ongoing movement into a deeper Surrender. Because of our reliance on the past we don’t always recognize or Trust that movement or have the capacity of the NS and the strength of Discrimination to truly Be Here.

The tendencies that bring us here, regardless of the depth of our recognition of Presence often times still remain hidden and functional. It is in the direct addressing of that that we find true change and transformation – the ultimate fulfillment of our life’s goal – Peace Love and lasting Freedom.

The capacity of our nervous system to Be Here is oftentimes the missing link between Direct Experience of Presence and Awakening. Between the Embodiment and Freedom, where Presence becomes available to us in the moment, regardless of what the current circumstances of our life are.

When I speak about Freedom I speak about living in a dynamic, alive recognition of Presence and in the true independence from the past.

A powerful strengthening as well as deepening of our capacity to Be Here comes from learning how to fully recognize and meet the sensations of our arising experiences just the way they are in the present. We recognize, then we address some of our past tendencies – the unseen and unmet imprints based on our experiences in the past, where we have believed individually and collectively that Truth, Presence and Love are not already Here.

I invite you all to join me in this program as Freedom is the true purpose of this life and every moment, including our time together is an invitation to Freedom.

This program besides the sharing of information is experiential in its nature and you will have the opportunity to ask questions, practice and deepen your experience of the teaching. The nervous system and the skillful means of Inquiry will be explored and you’ll learn how to build the capacity of the nervous system to Be Here.

FOCUS OF TEACHINGS:1. The true meaning of Surrender:

  • Direct experience of Presence, Awakening and the process that leads to Awakening
  • Karma/Destiny & Free Will – The implication for our practice & life
  • Desire for Truth & what is Surrender
  • Identifying & addressing obstacles to practice
  • Growing the capacity of the nervous system to Be Here
  • The process of Inquiry, nurturing our Inquiry practice & noticing sensations as a gateway to Presence

2. The role of the nervous system in Awakening and Freedom:

  • What does it mean to Be Here
  • Nervous system, brain & regulation; identifying & working with the states that arise here
  • Identifying survival & core strategies – meditation & Inquiry on completing the past
  • What is ego & ego structure
  • True Yes/No & what are true needs
  • The role of the ego or I & the I arises in Presence
  • The capacity & role of the nervous system before Awakening
  • The capacity & role of the nervous system in Awakening & in Freedom
  • Trauma, its role on the spiritual path, how it impairs the nervous system and its power for transformation

3. Presence, Awakening & functionality in the world:

  • What is Awakening?
  • Discrimination & Trust; experiential understanding of movement/action from the past versus movement/action from the present
  • Growing Inquiry skills & learning to facilitate Presence through “deep listening”
  • The role of the nervous system in Inquiry
  • Projection – Everything! is a projection of our mind & projection as a way of avoidance of what is
