SUMMARY:Stephan Bodian ~ Just This! An Invitation to Rest in the Joy and Fulfillment of Nondual Presence
DESCRIPTION:Just This!\nAn Invitation to Rest in the Joy\nand Fulfillment of Nondual Presence \nAll those spiritual words mean just one thing: Coming home to the ease and simplicity of right now\, beyond the limiting projections of the mind! Most of us spend most of our time suffering in the dream of past and future\, of how it should have been then and should be next week. But in the Now there are no problems to solve\, just Being endlessly unfolding in its innately perfect\, unarguable\, and mysterious way. \nLet’s come together to rest in the joy and fulfillment of Being as it is. Join us for guided and silent meditation\, teachings and pointers\, and plenty of time for dialogue and discussion. \nThe event will include pointing-out instructions for recognizing and resting in your natural state of nondual presence. \nStephan Bodian is a teacher in the nondual wisdom tradition of Zen\, Dzogchen\, and Advaita Vedanta. He’s been offering the School for Awakening\, an annual multi-month intensive program in spiritual unfolding and awakened living\, since 2007. As a licensed psychotherapist\, he brings a deep understanding of the impact of trauma and early conditioning on the process of spiritual realization and offers individual counseling and mentoring in psychospiritual integration. Stephan studied for many years with Advaita master Jean Klein and received Dharma transmission from Adyashanti in 2001. His books include Wake Up Now and Beyond Mindfulness\, and his new book\, Infinite Awakening\, will be published by Shambhala in spring 2026.\nFor more information\, visit : www.stephanbodian.org \nSliding Scale: $15 to $40\nHowever\, no one turned away for lack of funds.\nIf you can’t pay within the sliding scale\, contact us to let us know what you can contribute.\nAddress inquiries to web@opencirclecenter.org \nREGISTER \nThe event will be recorded and emailed to participants within a week.\nTo check your local time\, use a tool such as: Time Zone Converter
