🧘What is non-duality? 🧘
Awareness is primordial; it is the original state […] without change. Consciousness is on contact, a reflection against a surface, a state of duality. There can be no consciousness without awareness, but there can be awareness without consciousness, as in deep sleep. Awareness is absolute, consciousness is relative to its content […,] partial and changeful, awareness is total, changeless, calm and silent. And it is the common matrix of every experience.” (Nisargadatta Maharaj)

Advaita, Self-Realization, Dzogchen, Nirvikalpa Samadhi, Mahamudra, Yoga, Enlightenment, Darshan, Laya, Oneness, Atman - different keys from various traditions point to non-dual experiences. Whether non-duality is part of the tradition's name, non-duality is considered at the tradition's core or non-dual experiences are viewed as valuable highly transformative events, non-duality seems to permeate most of spirituality.

Let’s share for an afternoon about what non-duality is, how our practice, our aspirations and experiences might relate to it.

  • Guided Meditations for arriving, calming the mind and tuning into your intuition
  • Meeting people interested in spirituality (all levels)

"Pleasure and pain lost their sway over me. I was free from desire and fear. […] I saw that in the ocean of pure awareness, on the surface of the universal consciousness, the numberless waves of the phenomenal worlds arise and subside beginninglessly and endlessly. As consciousness, they are all me. As events they are all mine. There is a mysterious power that looks after them. That power is awareness, Self, Life, God, whatever name you give it. It is the foundation, the ultimate support of all that is, just like gold is the basis for all gold jewellery. And it is so intimately ours! Abstract the name and shape from the jewellery and the gold becomes obvious. Be free of name and form and of the desires and fears they create, then what remains?" (Nisargadatta Maharaj)
