Falling Awake

Satsang Staff — Fri, 23 Jul 2010 21:50:32 +0000

How often are we in the way of what’s happening? This week Jon suggests we notice where we’re pushing and pulling our experience, and instead encourages us simply to relax and allow life to unfold, and allow ourselves to be guided; and emphasizes that the more we give to awareness, the more it gives to us. Recorded 6/28/2010 in San Francisco.

The Fullness of Life

Shifting Into Being

Satsang Staff — Fri, 25 Jun 2010 21:20:49 +0000

Jon discusses the ways our personal cycles can sometimes make it feel like we’re losing ground in our practice; points out that what feels like backsliding can actually often be progress; and encourages us to shift our attention to what’s outside the realm of cycles, and allow clarity to facilitate itself. Recorded 6/14/2010 in San Francisco.

Nothing In the Way

Satsang Staff — Sat, 12 Jun 2010 06:48:28 +0000

Jon points out that non-self is simply our natural condition when we fully engage with our experience; suggests that “learning” in the spiritual sense is really more a kind of un-learning; and inquires into the nature of the identity’s gradual unwinding. Recorded 5/17/2010 in San Francisco.

Sleight of Mind

Satsang Staff — Fri, 04 Jun 2010 23:47:48 +0000

This week Jon compares spiritual practice to stage magic, pointing out the conscious redirection of attention that is key to both; suggests that real transformation is not something we do, but is truly the natural order of life itself; and challenges us to take the risk of stepping into the unknown. Recorded 5/10/2010 in San Francisco.

Aliveness Emerging

Satsang Staff — Sat, 29 May 2010 00:01:22 +0000

Listening Into the Silence

Satsang Staff — Fri, 14 May 2010 22:49:52 +0000

Jon points out that in satsang, silence is happening regardless of whether or not we’re speaking, and invites us to listen into that silence; challenges us to look for the cutting edge of our own process of discovery; and suggests that as we recover the deep consciousness of our senses, we inevitably begin to notice that what we truly are is aliveness itself. Recorded 5/8/2010 in Santa Cruz.

Getting It As It Is

Satsang Staff — Fri, 07 May 2010 23:38:38 +0000

Jon points to the difference between being caught in one’s story and expressing oneself in the space of true listening; how conscious dialogue can facilitate release from one’s limiting condition; and the fire of transformation we enter when speaking and listening become imbued with energy. Recorded 4/19/2010 in San Francisco.
