New awakening group begins 9/11/26 and will meet twice a month for people with a regular meditation and inquiry practice or those who want to begin. No experience necessary. Lots of curiosity required. I will show you just how efficient the process of awakening can be. Email me at josef@clearandopen.com with questions or interest.
Today, is there a self or not? It depends on the paradigm you ask. Some say there isn’t, others say it’s sacred. I say, you can’t know and bad things happen when you pretend to. How is an awakening process tainted by the confirmation bias assumption that there is no self? And what happens when you wake up without that assumption? What is enlightenment if we cannot actually subtract out the personal contribution to its expression?
What if the “totally gone” apparent state of famous nondual teachers is not necessarily an artifact of their awakening, but psychostructurally exhibited as capacity in their astrological chart? We look at Indian Sage Ramana Maharshi’s chart to see if a case can be made.
