Glad to be back for 2024!

This week we talk about the many different aspects of silence. How to cultivate a relationship with silence and recognising that the experience of silence is bliss. We acknowledge that sometimes one needs to traversing the ‘gunk’ to get to the silence.

We touch on St. Teresa of Avila’s mystic ecstasies and how extended experience of high-intensity ecstatic bliss can take its toll on the physiology. Bliss isn’t a peak experience but a fundamental quality of being itself. 

We talk about the presence of thoughts in no-mind, ‘cleaning up’ after ‘growing up’ and ‘waking up’, and the blossoming of potentials after awakening.

We discuss when prescriptions become descriptions to the awakened mind. Also, explore the practice of lectio divina - using sacred reading to access contemplative mind. We observe that silent observation is the way to discern the nature of reality.

And lots more. Enjoy.
