Page Text: Pointers of Non-Duality from Brian Thompson: Insights into the nature of consciousness with self-inquiry This website is an invitation for you to explore the nature of consciousness that is perceiving these very words, here and now. What is this “is-ness” that I seem to be? What am I? What is this awareness that seems to permeate my every thought, feeling and sensation? What is non-duality? What is spiritual self-realization? What is enlightenment? What is self-inquiry? How does one “awaken”? How do I stop struggling with life so much? What am I missing? What am I even searching for? Do I have free will? What is emptiness? These are the sorts of spiritual questions I want to help clarify for you. The teachings I share reveal the most obvious, yet profound, truth there is — that peace of mind is always available within the emptiness of your true selfless nature — it only needs to be recognized and acknowledged. Learn how to rest in the natural aware-knowingness of your own silent presence. No longer be distracted by all of that overwhelming existential mind-stuff. Let it all go. Once your true nature is clearly seen, it can no longer be ignored. The insight I share isn't philosophy and it most certainly isn’t a religious practice. They are life-changing realizations, shared from my own direct experience which in turn was inspired by the ancient wisdom of Zen and Advaita Vedanta. Awaken. Book a one-on-one session  via Skype.
