The Alchemy of Self-Inquiry

It is difficult to point to one element of Self-Realization as being the most beneficial. To be human is to be challenged. The challenge itself is the calling — the quiet summons that arises from the deepest layers of the self, the voice of the Soul.

The Soul calls us to discover who and what we truly are, and this discovery unfolds through the process of Self-Inquiry.

Our lives are alchemical experiments of Self-Inquiry that culminate in Self-Realization. Each genuine act of inquiry dissolves a layer of misperception — the sense of separation born from our early initiation into the dualistic mind.

Self-Inquiry is the art of asking, with openness and honesty, why we think and act as we do when faced with life’s daily challenges. When we ask deeply enough, we begin to see that we live within a revolving door of opinion, habit, and prejudice.

The courage to admit this misunderstanding empowers us to dive into the mystery of our true being.

We are not separate individuals striving for enlightenment; we are expressions of non-dual, eternal Consciousness itself.
