tation.
This simple, effortless, deep meditation has been the
subject of more scientific research than
all other meditation
techniques combined! It unfolds the full 200% potential
of
life - 100% inner spiritual awakening (peace and freedom),
plus 100% outer success (energy, intelligence, creativity,
love,

establishing
samadhi (infinite, unbounded Self) as a 24-hour/day
reality.

AWAKENING SATSANG
Led by Dr. Michael Dean Goodman
& Acharya PremShakti
$10 admission
(pay what you can afford;
no one turned away)
Michael is an initiated disciple of His Holiness Maharishi
Mahesh Yogi, certified teacher of yogic meditation & vedic
knowledge, and veteran leader of hundreds of satsangs.
PremShakti has been practicing
Self-inquiry since 1975, and
was certified to lead Enlightenment Intensives in 2001.
Self-Inquiry is an ancient
spiritual practice which asks “Who
Am I” - ‘behind’ or ‘beneath’ it
all. Offered in the spirit of
Ramana Maharshi, Gangaji, etc., here is
an invitation to put
down all your practices, beliefs,
expectations - to stop the
search & innocently see what is True - to
discover ‘how
much’ awakening is already present for
you.
