My goal with non-duality teachings is to add a little fun to whatever it is you’re doing. If you’re feeling really serious and critical about it, that’s my offering to you: to discover the fun and the joy in not two. The delight in discovering that things are not separate from each other. But also, …
Question everything

Question everything
We live in a time where we must question everything... because misconceptions on what it means to be a human are so pervasive. Fortunately it's perfect safe to do that! And it can be a ton of fun. Nonduality has a key to help us. Not two... is it true? What happens if we challenge some of the very assumptions we have in life like: is the idea of one god useful? Is enlightenment really that difficult? Did native peoples live in a non dual state? How does black and white thinking
limit us.
This is what I have fun doing, and thanks for sticking with me!

Who am I?
Who am I? That’s the big question. If you’re a person who’s working on answering that question, you have a more immediate problem: how shall I live? Because it’s really, really possible, common in fact, to get totally confused about how to live your life as you’re searching for who am I. It’s just so …

Nonduality says don’t search
Nonduality says, “Don’t search because there’s no point in it.” Any kind of searching is your mind looking for itself. You know, your thoughts looking for themselves. That can’t happen because thoughts constantly change. Thoughts are kind of like air blowing by. How can air look for itself? It’s like a river just flowing through …
Nonduality and the vicious loop
Nonduality points out the vicious loop of our brains, of our minds. You can’t find a lie from a lie. In other words… if there’s a basic misunderstanding about what life is, you can’t use that misunderstanding to understand what life is. I like to look at it in a historical context because that helps …
Who is thinking?
If we change our attention from what is making us think a certain thing or what is making us feel a certain thing to who is thinking, who is feeling, then we’re grounded.
Nonduality has the answer to the spiritual search
Nonduality has the answer to the spiritual search because it has this simple message that basically says anything we think is wrong. Whatever you want to define – enlightenment, or awakening, or even what it means to be a human being – anything you think about it is wrong. That’s because the thinking about it …
