Consciousness
Studies at One Spirit
The
Course of Awakening
- Winter / Spring 2009 Semester
With Loch Kelly, M.Div. LCSW
The Course of Awakening is designed to be a semester-long
or yearlong course in which each class builds upon the
previous one and people can explore the process of awakening
in an in-depth way with others. The course is designed
to help introduce you to the direct experience of Awake
Awareness and the process of waking up from our mistaken
identity, waking-in to an embodied life and waking-out
to relationship and activity. The classes are taught
in a direct experiential way that will help each student
develop a daily practice. Each class will include a
talk, dialogue, meditation and inquiry. The Course of
Awakening can be signed up for a semester at a time.

“When
we realize that who we are is not-a-thing, all experience
is welcome and true intimacy is possible." -
Loch
The
Course of Awakening presents the direct experience of
Awake Awareness and the process of waking-up from our
mistaken identity, waking-in to an embodied life and
waking-out to relationship and activity. Classes are
taught in a direct experiential way that will help each
student develop a daily practice. Each class will include
a talk, dialogue, meditation and inquiry.
The first class is an introductory session,
for experienced students and practitioners of all backgrounds,
to see if this is a useful approach at this point in
your life. You can take this class session on its own,
and you may then elect to upgrade your registration
to the full course of study.

Evening
Gatherings that
Complement the Day Classes
The evening gatherings with Loch
Kelly combine dialogue, meditation and inquiry. A wonderful
supplement to the Day Classes, evening gatherings offer
students opportunities to deepen their exploration of
Awake Awareness and practice with others. These gatherings
are invitations for participants to recognize, realize,
and rest as that which they have always been. Join Loch
Kelly in deep silence and living inquiry as he offers
profound, yet simple direct doorways into the freedom
of natural wakefulness.
