THE DEEPEST ACCEPTANCE:

RADICAL AWAKENING IN ORDINARY LIFE

How do we stop running away from “the mess of life”—our pain, our predicaments, our frustrations, our failures, even our longing for freedom and enlightenment—and start flowing with all of it?

Is it possible to find an effortless “yes” to this moment, no matter how challenging our lives become?

Is it possible to stop seeking love, peace and enlightenment in the future, and discover them where you already are?

Join us in this day-long expoloration of the nature of our experience, not with the aim of ‘fixing’ it – but seeing the wholeness within it. With Jeff and Florian's guidance we are pointed back to life as it is, to the timeless present moment, and to the vast open space of Being which holds all experience as it comes and goes. We look at how and why we suffer, and expose the seeking mechanism at the root of our problems. We talk about everything from relationships, to honest communication, to addictions and the search for spiritual enlightenment – and how all of these are related.

About Jeff:
Following Jeff's graduation from Cambridge University in 2001, there was a period of intensive spiritual search which came to an absolute end with a clear seeing that there is only ever Oneness. Life became what it always was: spontaneous, joyful, and fully alive, and Jeff began to meet with people to talk about this "nonduality."

In his meetings Jeff attempts to articulate, in a simple and down-to-earth way, something which ultimately is impossible to put into words. He provides pointers to the frustrations surrounding the spiritual search, to the nature of mind, and to the Clarity at the heart of everything. Jeff's approach is full of humor and compassion and it reveals the awakening that is always already present, right in the midst of life.

There is plenty of free material at Jeff's website including essays, talk transcripts, audio and video. http://www.lifewithoutacentre.com/

About Florian:

For about 7 years Florian Tathagata and his life companion Julia have travelled around the world untiringly inviting seekers to recognize in their own experience who they really are and to live as an embodiment of truth in everyday life.

In his unmistakable manner Florian embraces the daily and simple life that he is sharing with a constantly increasing number of 'friends of truth', as he calls all those being interested. Again and again visitors of meetings tell of spontaneous awakening, of an all penetrating silence, of simple clarity and presence and of overflowing love and gratitude which they experience in Florian‘s presence.

With both legs firmly rooted in normal everyday life and at the same time in the heart deeply connected with Ramana Maharshi, Papaji, Jiddu Krishnamurti and his teacher and friend Isaac Shapiro, Florian speaks and is silent, laughs and cries, is present with everyone who would love to savour the truth of awareness.
