SUMMARY:John Prendergast ~ The Art of Self-Inquiry ~ Bay Area Daylong Retreat
DESCRIPTION:Awakening to our true nature is greatly facilitated by the art of self-inquiry – a deep\, honest\, and intuitive investigation into the direct experience of who we really are. This investigation is based upon our love of the non-dogmatic truth and our desire to live in conscious accord with it. Rigorous self-inquiry often requires that we recognize and welcome our deepest doubts and fears and then question and see through them. The effect is profoundly liberating. \nOur time together will include guided and open meditations\, a talk\, group and dyadic inquiries\, and experiential conversations. \nJohn J. Prendergast\, Ph.D. is a spiritual teacher and retired psychotherapist and adjunct professor of psychology at CIIS\, well known for his pioneering work in integrating non-dual wisdom and psychotherapy. He studied with the European sage Jean Klein for many years\, as well as with Adyashanti who gave him dharma transmission in August\, 2023. He is the author of The Deep Heart (2019) and In Touch (2015) and is working on a new book for Sounds True about the Ground. \nwww.listeningfromsilence.com\nYouTube channel \nThe meeting will be from 10:00am to Noon and 2:00pm to 4:30pm\, with a break for lunch.\nPlease bring your own lunch\, or feel free to go into town to one of the restaurants or to Good Earth Natural Foods. \nPre-registration required\, as space is limited.\nRegistration closes at 5 pm on May 31st\nSuggested donation: $75\n(Any amount acceptable.
