Monthly Zoom meeting
Explore the nature of experience together.
A relaxed, inclusive online group with Nic Higham and Amy Ward, focused on embodied and experiential exploration of nonduality.
The gathering
A shared exploration, not a lecture.
This monthly online group is for anyone who resonates with the message of nonduality and is looking for a relaxed, inclusive space to explore the seamless, unified nature of experience.
Call it a satsang, a meeting or simply reality exploring itself. The first hour features talks and guided inquiries from Nic and Amy. The second hour is dedicated to open dialogue, questions and sharing. You are welcome to take part in the way that feels right for you, including simply listening.
Our approach to nonduality
Radical inclusion.
While some traditional systems work through a progressive rejection of what is considered impure, we see every transient form as having an equal place within timeless wholeness. Radical inclusion recognises that everything is the absolute, and nothing needs to be pushed away or suppressed.
This outward-facing path, often called the Tantric approach, explores all experience as a direct expression of a single nondual reality. Inspired by the tradition of Kashmir Shaivism, while avoiding religious language and dogma, we point to experience as a seamless field without actual boundaries.
One experiencing
The perceiver and perceived are not two.
In the immediacy of experience, a separate perceiver cannot be found standing apart from what is perceived. There is experiencing itself. The familiar sense of a localised me navigating an external world is an interpretive pattern that can be explored rather than accepted as the final truth.
The universe can be understood as the One freely expressing itself as the many. The world is not an illusion to escape but reality in motion. Multiplicity does not break unity; it is how unity becomes visible.
A path of recognition
No state is closer to the truth.
We dismantle artificial hierarchies of experience. No state of mind, body or experience is treated as closer to reality than another. Everything can become a doorway beyond fixed concepts.
Unlike a path focused on self-improvement or the attainment of a future state, this is a path of recognition. We do not become the One. We recognise that the infinite has always appeared as the finite.
