WELCOME. Thanks for dropping by. It’s been a busy two weeks, so I want to just jump right in, but let me make one note of appreciation first. Thanks! to the good folks at Non-Duality Press for making me their featured author this month. It’s a real treat, and a high honor. This unit now has my permission […]

FULL STOP! The Gateway to Present Perfection by John Wheeler Resonance All pointers converge on a central theme. This is the simple truth of what we are, the essential and inescapable reality that shines behind the doubtless sense of being present and aware. No one can say ‘I am not’, as the very statement presupposes […]
WELCOME TO THE TWENTY-NINTH EDITION of the Awakening Clarity Guest Teaching Series. There’s another opportunity to see and hear about the scientific side of consciousness research that I want to share with you. After an email exchange with Nick Day at the University of Arizona Center Consciousness Studies, I received a large packet of DVDs aptly named The Consciousness Chronicles. […]
I HOPE YOU DIE SOON Word on Non-Duality by Richard Sylvester Introduction The most common misconception about liberation is that it is something an individual can gain. But liberation is a loss—the loss of the sense that there ever was a separate individual who could choose to do something to bring about liberation. When it […]

THE HEAVENLY BACKFLIP Seeing and Being the Unfigureoutable by J. C. Amberchele LOOK! Sometimes I want to stop the first person I see and shout, LOOK! LOOK! Isn’t this MIRACULOUS?

NOTHING TO GRASP by Joan Tollifson No matter what state dawns at this moment, can there be just that? Not a movement away, an escape into something that will provide what this state does not provide, or doesn’t seem to provide: energy, zest, inspiration, joy, happiness, whatever. Just completely, unconditionally listening to what’s here now, […]

You can see snapshots in the Housekeeping Notes at the end of this post. Wilson has had Betsy and me and our two quite […]
WELCOME TO THE TWENTY-FIFTH EDITION OF OUR GUEST TEACHING SERIES. I spent some time this past Saturday on SKYPE with Jeff Warren, a Canadian journalist, and author of The Head Trip. He had contacted me about doing an interview on Nondual culture. I wasn’t sure what that was, but I was certainly interested in finding out, so […]
WELCOME TO THE TWENTY-FOURTH EDITION OF OUR GUEST TEACHING SERIES. Life here in Hut World, as I sometimes call this little hidden away apartment, has been a mite hectic of late. I am, in fact, a day late in putting this post up, so for those of you who catch me–and Ellen!–I do apologize. I got my […]
WELCOME back to our Guest Teaching Series after last week’s wandering. This is the twenty-third edition of the GTS, and our guest’s second appearance here.

WELCOME. Last week was the first time in nearly a year that I didn’t publish a new post on Awakening Clarity. It was like going on vacation! I had a huge windfall of time, and I used it wisely: I wrote quite a bit in my book, and got those chapters sent off to the […]
