Those of us in the Western world, the civilized world, are captured, all the time, by hierarchy. I see this a lot in non-duality teachings. Very often, people make it so obscure that only the most important of us can grasp it. Huge long words and sentences describing… I don’t know what! I can never …

Nonduality says 'Just do it'
This week we explore the idea that non duality is doable. Not only that... it's the natural state for a human being. It's the secret for how we can all live together.
Blows my mind
It blows my mind that people get so serious about nonduality. Because there is just nothing more fun and full of puns than nonduality!
Definition of Nonduality
The Wikipedia definition of non-duality is that it’s a fuzzy concept that everything in the universe is united, and that the human mind is capable of seeing this. Like, who wrote that?

Hands connect to inner wisdom
Using your hands will connect you to your inner wisdom faster than anything else, so be creative, make things.
