I am available to teach on a one-to-one basis, either in person, via video chat (such as Skype) or over the phone. I can provide instruction in various forms of meditation depending on personal relevance and accessibility, insight into the nature of mystical and profound experiences, guidance in approaching and understanding practice and awakening (both pre- and post-awakening), and support in living your life in light of what enlightenment means for us as human beings.

As a teacher, I have experience in guiding beginner, intermediate and advanced students, from the first sit to the initial ‘breakthrough’ experience of awakening to full enlightenment. I welcome students with any or no experience and from any background or tradition. If you already work within a tradition, or hold certain religious beliefs, it is not necessary to give that up in order to work with me; my view is informed by experience with many of the world’s enlightenment traditions, from Advaita Vedanta to Christian Mysticism to Buddhism, and enlightenment is not dependent on whether you are a believer, agnostic or atheist.

My aim is to establish a school or lineage of awakened teachers primarily in the West that is accessible and relevant for 21st Century Westerners, and inclusive of our rich history of spiritual traditions. If you’re interested in awakening, or authentic spirituality, I believe it should be public knowledge of who you can go to for accurate information, guidance and support. I hope offering myself as a teacher will be the first step in my contribution to this process. (I currently have a couple of enlightened students who will soon become teachers themselves.)
