Bruce Frantzis
The Water Method of Taoist Meditation: Relaxing into Your Being

For two evenings in October Taoist Lineage Master Bruce Frantzis will be teaching a Taoist Meditation workshop, peeling away the metaphors to explain the relevance of meditation to everyday life. Gradually we will explore ways of locating, recognising and releasing energy blockages in the body that manifest in our emotions, creative and analytical thinking, psychic sensitivities, karma and at the level of our individual essence, which goes beyond personality. Taoist meditation has been applied for millennia to let go of that which binds – whether physical, emotional, mental or spiritual.

Bruce is a vibrant and inspirational talker and never misses to include fascinating stories of his life and training with Taoist Lineage Master, Liu Hung Chieh, in China.

Wayne Liquorman talks Advaita

Wayne Liquorman was both a spiritual seeker and a family man with a successful export business, when he met his first and final guru, Ramesh Balsekar, in September 1987. In April 1989 the process of seeking ended when enlightenment happened through the body-mind mechanism called Wayne.

Wayne describes the event as being “of interest only to seekers.” His first book, No Way: A Guide For the Spiritually ‘Advanced’ was published in 1990 under the pen name Ram Tzu because he “didn’t want a bunch of miserable seekers cluttering up his living room.” In fact, Wayne did not speak publicly until Ramesh asked him to do so in 1996.

The teaching, as it happens through Wayne, is pure Advaita (non-duality), uniquely presented in a uncompromising, sometimes humorous way, without religious dogma or new age veneer. In his Talks, Wayne is without agenda, speaking only in response to seeker’s questions. He talks about Consciousness: the ground of all being, the source and the substance of everything.

“This Advaita, as I talk about it, is not actually a philosophy, because it does not hold any tenets. It is simply a collection of pointers and concepts, and it posits that none of them are true in an absolute sense. This teaching is not about conveying the truth. It is about prying away the limitations and misconceptions about how things are.” from Never Mind

Wayne’s message is clear and simple. Although he may suggest areas for further inquiry, Wayne offers no cures, practices, or miracles to reach enlightenment. He invites you to bring your most cherished beliefs to his Talks. If you are really fortunate, you may leave without them.
