Awakening as the Field
The Avatar Teachings
Retreat | November 13-15 | Asheville, NC
You are 100% human.
YOU ARE 100% DIVINE.
Most of us are radically aware of our humanity.
Our fears and faults. Our fragility and brokenness.
But what if you were equally aware of your divine nature?
What if you could connect directly with the body of your fully-awakened self?
Connect with your divine nature
This retreat is an intimate group experience for those who want to go deeper into the Relational Awakening practice path.
You know how to shift into the field — to release the grip of the individual self-structure and rest in the open, formless field of love and wisdom.
Now we introduce a further step.
In response to the cries of the world, we invite the field to cohere into a specific form — a body, a being . . .
This is what we call the avatar.
Experience the avatar body
The avatar is the field taking shape so that compassion can have hands, so that wisdom can have a face.
But these are not ordinary hands or faces. They are incomprehensibly powerful, beautiful, and vast. The avatar body can hold the entire earth in the palm of its hand. It can be simultaneously intimate and cosmic. It is not bound by time or space.
During this retreat, each person will have the opportunity to connect with the avatar that is working in and through them and discover what it’s like to no longer function from the small self, but function in and as the field itself for the healing and awakening of all.
AWAKENING AS THE FIELD:
The Avatar Teachings
Retreat | November 13-15 |
Asheville, NC
The orientation of this retreat is radical: We begin at the end.
Since time and space, at the ultimate level, do not exist, we start from the place where our awakening is already complete. The fully realized self is not a destination to be reached but a reality to be recognized.
Together we’ll learn what it means to:
Connect with the avatar of your already-realized self
Shift into the avatar in order to generate a medicine field
Liberate the distorted energies of the seven wisdom channels
Run this liberated energy through the "energetic scaffolding" of your avatar to amplify its potency
Allow the radical imagination of the field to become a new center of gravity for collective life

-
Offering the karma of your ordinary identity in service to the field’s vow to awaken itself
Relaxing your hold on relative selfhood and resting as a relational field of compassionate responsiveness
Experiencing the difference between healing in service of the me-project vs. healing as an act of collective awakening
Practice connecting to your awakened avatar and learn how to come from this open identity in social interactions
-
Deepening and stabilizing your experience of the seven wisdom channels
Identifying and clearing the distortions associated with each channel
Run this awakened energy through the "energetic scaffolding" of your avatar to amplify its potency
Relate to your ordinary self as an agent of the awakened avatar
-
Exploring the implications of what it means to go through life as a field of enlightening responsiveness
Experiencing the class itself as just such a field and discovering new ways to serve the awakening of the collective
Actualizing the field’s creative wisdom to create new pathways for collective life
