SUMMARY:Unmani ~ Longing to Be Free: Introduction
DESCRIPTION:For so many of us\, we started out on this spiritual path with a deep longing to come home. Even if you didn’t have any real concept of what that meant at the time\, maybe you had a heart-felt longing that was impossible to conceptualise. Perhaps you felt disconnected and misunderstood in a world where the mind is revered\, and a true or heart knowing is belittled or overlooked. Maybe you felt so alone and isolated without any reflection of who you really are. Maybe over time you learnt ways to survive in this strange world which compromised yourself and your deepest longing. The sense of disconnection and separation became almost normal. At some point\, Life calls us to reconnect with our deepest longing to come home. This longing is beyond all the spiritual concepts or any other concepts. It is the longing to meet yourself right now\, and no longer compromise or overlook this.  \nAbout Unmani\nMeeting with Unmani is meeting with yourself in the most real and alive way. Unmani is originally from the UK\, but has lived in many countries around the world. Since she was a child\, Unmani didn’t identify with being a separate individual\, but assumed there was something wrong with her\, until she came across the expression of Satsang and nonduality. Truth has always been her passion. Unmani had teachers including Osho\, Dolano\, Nathan Gill\, Tony Parsons\, Gangaji and several other amazing people who are not considered ‘teachers’. \nIn 2013 she met her husband\, the wonderful musician\, and courageous lover of life\, Robert Hanuman. In 2015 their son\, Sky\, was born. On 3rd January 2018\, Robert Hanuman died suddenly from a heart attack while they were in India.  Robert Hanuman’s presence deeply influenced Unmani’s teaching\, and in the time they were together it evolved into a more human expression of the courage to live the paradox of the Absolute\, living as this human. Robert put Unmani’s words to his beautiful classical guitar music and Unmani still plays his songs at her meetings. \nUnmani has been holding meetings and retreats all over the world for since 2003\, and in this time people have been deeply touched by her work: She meets each person exactly where they are at\, and in whatever they need at the time\, while at the same time holding them in the truth of who they really are beyond it all. This combination\, and paradox\, of the personal and impersonal\, brings so much depth\, openness and healing to people’s lives. They wake up to who they really are\, and discover how this is lived and integrated into their daily lives. \nUnmani has written 3 books ‘I am Life itself’\, ‘Die to Love’ and ‘The Courage to Come Alive’ (soon to be published). Unmani holds regular meetings and retreats several times a year as well as monthly webinars on different themes. There are many videos of her teaching from the past nearly 20 years on her Youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/Unmani \nRobert Hanuman’s music can be downloaded on iTunes here: https://music.apple.com/nl/artist/robert-hanuman/1329878840?l=en \nUnmani’s website is: www.die-to-love.com \nSuggested donation: $15 to $25\nNo one turned away for lack of funds.\nPlease register early if you can. \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

I feel so supported in the most compassionate way when I listen to you. – Heather S. \nA beautiful speaker and spiritual teacher. Matt has helped me tremendously with letting go of blame\, ridicule\, and sabotaging thoughts and emotions I was inflicting on myself and others. And incredible at teaching me to love this within me with so much self-compassion that I can finally breathe and live easier. – Silencio M. \nHe has a way of explaining things that makes you feel like he’s talking to you. Just you. Right through the TV at you. He has helped me work through so much own stuff and I finally feel free. I understand how this works. And I’m doing everything I can to embody it. – Steven H. \nThank you Matt. Everything you say seems like missing pieces of a gigantic puzzle. You’re not just making more sense of the whole picture\, but you’re helping me see how much bigger it really is. I feel exposed to more and better mystery about the world and myself. I love everything you say and reading your books releases so much heaviness in my heart. – Amelie B. \nI recommend if your heart is in need of healing and your soul is calling out for a higher level of consciousness — then Matt Kahn is what you’re looking for. Helping to guide you to a better level of understanding. Gratitude\, LOVE\, compassion so much more. Blessed to have crossed his path. – Donna \nmattkahn.org
