SUMMARY:Neelam ~ The Role of the Nervous System in Awakening and Freedom - What does it mean to Be Here?
DESCRIPTION:Live Worldwide Tele-satsang \n10 am to 12 noon (Pacific Time – San Francisco\, CA\, USA) Time Zone Converter \n“Awakening is a shift from identifying yourself as this body to knowing yourself as Presence. Freedom means a true independence from the past\, where our ability to Be Here and the action in the moment are not guided by our attachment to the arising past. To truly be Free we need to embody our recognition of Presence\, and that requires growing of the capacity of our nervous system to Be Here. It is in the meeting of what arises that we find true and lasting freedom.”\n~ Neelam \nThis call is an invitation to Presence and to Neelam’s teaching and a practical exploration of the role of the nervous system in Awakening and Freedom. The nervous system and its capacity to Be Here is an essential element for Awakening\, Embodiment and for Freedom. \nWhen unmet\, un-experienced Tendencies of the Past arise – and we so often believe it and identify ourselves with that – it affects and manifests in our physiology and that shows up as thoughts and as feelings\, emotions and sensations.\nIf there is no awareness of that\, and no Capacity to Be Here\, our nervous system reacts and moves into fight / flight / freeze or overwhelm\, and we end up re-enacting or suppressing and thus perpetuating the Past. \nThe capacity of our nervous system to Be Here and experience the arising Past is often the missing link between our Desire for Truth and our ability to independently experience Presence and Self-Inquiry\, which is what takes us directly into Awakening\, Embodiment and Freedom. \nNeelam is a direct disciple of HWL Poonja (affectionately known as Papaji)\, whose own teacher was Ramana Maharshi. Neelam’s unequivocal commitment to Truth helps us turn inward and release underlying patterns of conditioning which block the recognition of our True Nature. With the utmost tenderness\, she invites us into the same recognition of Truth that her teacher\, Papaji\, transmitted to her\, while helping us to address all aspects of daily living\, including past conditioning and trauma.   \nTestimonials from Participants: \n“What’s different about Neelam is that she demystifies the actual practice of being present – she’s helped me see what’s actually happening when feelings and emotions come up\, and how\, in a very practical way\, to deal with them. Her strong point is “how to actually do this being the present thing.” It really helps to take it out of the mind and into the body” \n“Neelam showed me that Being Here was what I was looking for. Then she showed me how to build Nervous System capacity to Be Here and that took time and repetition” \nwww.neelam.org \nSuggested donation: $15 to $25\nPLEASE REGISTER EARLY if you can.
