The path of meditation leads us deeper and deeper into the moment of now -- past our thoughts, past our emotions, past our concepts of an 'I', all the way to what has been called the Ground of Being.  It is the deepest part of us underlying everything else.  It is the unity of our innermost awareness - clear, open, and knowing - and our innermost heart - gentle, accommodating, and loving.  The translucent Ground is the basis for all experience.  It is the ultimate essence of what we are.  As we become familiar with this open Ground of Being, it reveals itself as the source of lasting happiness, peace, and enlightenment itself.

This short summer course will focus on the practice of open awareness and direct recognition of the Ground of Being.
