In the language of the teaching passed on by Gurdjieff it is proposed that even though we may be out of bed and functioning in life we are still, in fact, in a state of waking sleep. Through intentional efforts to experience the truth of this statement, we may begin to discover what it is to truly awaken.

"We believe that to awake is to enter into an entirely
different life, which will have nothing in common with
the one we lead. But, in fact, awaking means, above
all, to awake to ourselves as we are, to see and feel
the sleep, the identification."
(Jeanne de Salzmann; The Reality of Being; p. 80)
To awaken...
Mindfulness...
To meditate...
To be present...
To be in the moment…
Spiritual awakening...
In whatever words your personal search has led you to call this effort to be more than we normally are…
You are invited to join us as we open to the questions of life in forms that put less emphasis on words and ideas and more in favor of experiencing the development of meaningful connections between mind, body and feeling.
