Contemplation, awakening & wisdom.
I have had a spiritual practice in one form or another since I was 22 and a fascination with awakening has been one of the biggest driving forces in my life.
- If you’re new here you can start with What is a mystic?
- If you already have a meditation practice, you might be interested in my Orientations. These are the reflections and reminders I’ve written down for myself over the years, compiled into something like a living, contemplative handbook.
- I am also putting together some writings on the language we use to talk about spirituality, awakening and “non-duality”, and how these ideas shape our practice and perception. Codename: Logos.
