YOU ARE THE AWARENESS
When you recognize that there is a voice in your head that pretends to be you and never stops speaking, you are awakening out of your unconscious identification with the stream of thinking.
When you notice that voice, you realize that who you are is not the voice — the thinker — but the one who is aware of it.
Knowing yourself as the awareness behind the voice is freedom.
The egoic self is always engaged in seeking. It is seeking more of this or that to add to itself, to make itself feel more complete. This explains the ego’s compulsive preoccupation with future.

Now I write, teach and coach mainly about 21stC 'interfaith as inter-spirituality' - and how we can grow closer to our True Self.
.
As anyone who knows anything about IPF will realize my energy is curtailed - so I am concentrating primarily on 'inter-spirituality'.
.
In the past I would have said that:
.
1) I run courses and give talks at conferences and in universities and colleges in the UK, China, USA, Canada, Scandinavia etc.
.
2) I provide materials, outlines and lessons for Schools.
.
3) My range of interests include personal development, learning and teaching, photography and film, the arts generally, spirituality and educational practice and theory.
.
4) At the same time I continue developing the human-centred studies SunWALK PDS (People Development System) - a whole-person, high-achievement model for individuals, and for use in, NGOs, schools and other organizations.
.
5) The key question that continues to animate me and my work remains, "What is it to be fully and positively human?"
.

All good wishes
