As we continue working through this idea of how to find a harmonious intersection between native wisdom and nonduality, I hope that you’re starting to see that nonduality is a bigger, riper, more robust philosophy than we are typically given in nondual studies.

A Full Nondual Society
An actual full non dual society would include everyone: men, women, babies, children, teenagers. — Meditating in Real Life — It’s good to meditate in places that are really noisy because that is more like real life. So, don’t become annoyed if you’re meditating and some sort of sound happens. That’s how reality works.
Imagine a Monastery
We’ve been talking about the intersection of Nonduality (enlightenment teachings) and Native spirituality. I’d like to start painting a new picture.

Appropriating Native Cultures
This is a series of videos on integrating non-duality with Native teachings. And I’d like to stop for a minute and talk about appropriating other cultures – appropriating native cultures. If you’ve been following what I’ve been saying, this will probably start making some sense to you. If it doesn’t make any sense at all, …
Native wisdom gives us a different story
Native wisdom gives us a different story of who we are as human beings. It’s a story of unity. Nonduality gives us the tool, then, to see ourselves clearly within the stories that we’ve been told. The stories that have contributed to our perceived separation. We need to go down to a place of zero …
