    Gilad Karni | Aligning Self, Spirituality And High Performance

    Gilad is a former pro-basketball athlete and captain of the Israeli national team. He also served as an operative in the Israeli Special Forces, as is a custom in his homeland.  He has been on a journey of self-exploration and now guides individuals and organisations to dissolve the limitations they built around themselves. I love Gilad's openness and willingness to engage on a human level about the issues we face as a society whilst remaining grounded in the deeper aspects of reality.  "Success, just like love, was never meant to be conditioned. Love doesn't need a reason, and success doesn't need an object. My guidance will support you to consciously engage in deep, meaningful, and purposeful work your True Self is here to do, BUT it will no longer be the means by which you seek joy, peace, freedom, and success. Rather, the natural fullest expression of your True Self." We spoke about various topics, from non-duality to the human nervous system and nutrition, amongst many other things.    Gilad's Links Website - https://karnigilad.com/ Business Bodhisattva Article - https://karnigilad.com/business-bodhisattva/   Alex's Links Website - https://alexhickman.co.uk/ Substack - https://dancingparadox.substack.com/ Twitter - https://twitter.com/alex_hickman1

    Isaac Shapiro | Direct Enquiry Into The Nature Of Self

    Isaac Shapiro is an internationally known spiritual teacher. Over the years, Isaac saw the extent that trauma pervades human functioning, making the felt sense of the Truth of who we are difficult to live. He now includes a somatic approach, which is quite rare and refreshing in Advaita / 'eastern' communications.  Isaac runs "Meetings in Truth', sharing with other that there is awareness, unraveling all the misunderstandings that have crept into our understanding. A deep cleaning of ideas and beliefs.  “All we have is the sensory experience of this moment, NOW. This moment is only an experience to us. That’s all we have. The world, time, space, our own bodies and each other are all an experience to us.”   Isaac's Links YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@meetingsintruthwithisaacsh8598 Website - https://isaacshapiro.org/   Alex's Links Website - https://alexhickman.co.uk/ YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/alexhickman Substack - https://dancingparadox.substack.com/

    Edward Hirsch | The Cultivation Of Presence

    Edward Hirsch has a B.A. in philosophy from Queens College, NY (followed by two years of graduate work in philosophy at the University of Texas at Austin), and an M.A. in Transpersonal Counselling from John F. Kennedy University, CA. He studied over six years with Hameed Ali and his senior students. Hameed was the founder of the Diamond Heart School, where he learned the embodied Practice of Presence and a deep integration of spirituality and psychology. Earlier, he was a student of Adi Da for about two years, living up on his land but not part of the inner circle. There, the emphasis was more on the role of guru and grace, as well as deep spiritual recognition of radical Truth. As Da’s radical teachings deeply resonated with his own intuitions, the teaching stayed with him long after leaving Da as his guru. He has studied and practiced in many traditions, East and West, North and South, including esoteric Christianity, kundalini yoga, and to a lesser extent, shamanism. He continues to keep abreast of developments in the contemporary spiritual landscape, including teachings of a wide variety of views, but mostly aligning with nondual, embodied, nondenominational, evolutionary, and integral approaches, finding ways of integrating seemingly opposite points of view in a broad sense of Sacred Mystery. A quote by Ed :- "Presence is the Open Secret, hidden in the plain obviousness of (uninspected) ordinary experience. And the simple Practice of Presence that supports the alchemy is also hidden in just that way." We spoke about Ed's life and simplified the seemingly complex ideas of spirituality and non-duality. The passion for his craft is clear.   WEBSITE ➣ https://www.alexhickman.co.uk WRITING ➣ https://dancingparadox.substack.com/

    Bernadette Roberts | The Path To No Self

    Bernadette Roberts (1931–2017) was a former Carmelite nun and contemplative in the Catholic tradition. Roberts extensively chronicled and described her life and spiritual journey. Her book 'Contemplative: Autobiography of the Early Years' presents an account of her early family life and spiritual experiences. Her spiritual journey after entering the cloister is described in 'The Path to No-Self: Life at the Center'. This book includes descriptions of her experience of the "Dark Nights" and of the state of "Union," as spoken of by various Christian mystics. After years of life in union with God, Roberts described an event she calls the experience of "no-Self" in 'The Experience of No-Self: A Contemplative Journey'. The book, however, only covers a two-year period after the events described. Roberts further elaborated on the context for this event. After the first publication of The Experience, Roberts was invited to speak around the country, to present her talk, "A Passage Through Self," that uses a series of circles to illustrate the spiritual journey. For the last 30 years Roberts gave annual retreats entitled "The Essence of Christian Mysticism," in which she presented the essence of Christian mysticism as Trinity, Christ, and Faith. Her last work was The Real Christ (2012). (Wikepedia) This is an excerpt of Bernadette Roberts speaking about the experience of no-self.   ORIGINAL VIDEO ➣ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nb549...
