MESSAGE FROM WAYNE

Hello my loves!

There is a kind of tyranny in belief.

Belief is loud in proclaiming itself. In believing, the bigger and more fundamental Knowing is obscured. We are taught to believe but come to Know through experience and insight. The believer is ultimately stunted by the lack of nutrition in belief. Growth impeded, the believer is left to travel in tiny circles revisiting only what is already believed to be true. What is absent in belief is space!

The pursuit of Knowing is endless and a reward onto itself. Presence of Knowing is limitless and eternal.

In the Living Teaching of Advaita we gather together to celebrate Knowledge without boundary or feature. The mind that believes may bring us here, but to fully inhabit this Knowing, the mind that believes it already knows, must be absorbed into the Knowing.

May it find you now!

With love,
Wayne

YOUR HEAD IN THE TIGER'S MOUTH

Talks with
Ramesh S. Balsekar

 

This book consists of transcribed dialogues from several years at Ramesh’s home in Bombay. Ramesh answers questions on an encyclopedic range of topics with breathtaking clarity and a loving Presence. Whether speaking on life as a movie, Shiva-Shakti, free will or concepts of enlightenment Ramesh constantly reminds his listeners that there is no personal action or individual doer. That all actions are the impersonal functioning of Consciousness. This is a “must” for every serious student of Advaita and an indispensable companion volume to “Consciousness Speaks.”

Includes thirteen new photographs. Appendix I contains devotional letters to Ramesh.

A LIVING GEM FROM RAMESH (NEVER BEFORE BEEN PUBLISHED)

In the beginning, before the urge to enquire into the Self happens, the world and everything therein is perceived as real, and separate from us; later, as the self-enquiry proceeds, the world and everything therein is perceived as illusory objects in consciousness, but somehow the “me” which sees this is still present as a separate entity; finally, when there is awakening, the “me” no longer exists, as a separate entity, and the world and all that is in it is seen as consciousness itself (and not something different appearing in it), as the objective expression of the subjective noumenon.
 

WORDS FROM THE HEART
 

I watched a YouTube video of one of your satsangs the other day and was overcome with love and gratitude.  My mouth kept saying, "You are so kind, Wayne.  You are so kind," while I wept.  Somehow the magnitude of all of your years of loving service to seekers like me seemed to stand up to be noticed all at once and it struck me how very gentle and patient and generous you have been for all of these years.  Thank you so much, Wayne.  I am so very grateful.  I hope one day to come and visit you and enjoy your presence.  It's been about a year now since the bottom fell out of the bucket.  But it keeps deepening.  By your grace, I don't know what I am, nor is there anyone to care.  And there is no suffering anymore.

R.
