Bernardo Kastrup | Rupert Spira: With Reality in Mind
Adventures in Awareness
@adventuresinawarenessAbout
Events, courses, podcasts and other resources to support curious and courageous enquiry in the nature of self, perception and reality. Here is an inspiring community of meditators, mystics, scientists and researchers, dedicated to exploring the depths of perception, consciousness and the very nature of reality itself. Our approach is inspired by both cutting-edge science and ancient wisdom. By integrating these new insights into your daily life, it is possible to experience a profound transformation in the way you perceive and interact with the world. Whilst grounded in reason and observation, we embrace playful exploration when opening the door to the unknown. Our community is filled with individuals who are eager to explore new perspectives, challenge their assumptions, and have fun along the way. Listening is free, but your support is appreciated! If you would like to contribute this initiative, donations are gratefully accepted.
