Guided Meditation With Rumi
With The Drunken MonkMeditation & Poetry Combined "… the space in the gaps between the words… that's where your essence is waiting…” While listening or reading poetry, we are shifting our attention from just reading words and thinking about them, to an openness of their essence. The mind becomes calmer as we are creating a space within for profound insights and meaning to arise. With poems, the world of symbols and imagery opens and connects us to our deeper and more authentic wisdom. Meditation then enhances this unique ‘space beyond’ and helps us to embrace it fully on a holistic level (mind, body, spirit, emotions). Through the harmonious combination of Rumis poetry and the meditative space, we can connect with the real jewels of our authentic wisdom. Then the practice becomes a rich nourishment and ‘food for our soul’.
Entry level meditations enhanced with the beautiful poetry of Rumi.

Meet your Teacher
Peter has been on the Path since he can remember asking the questions, "Who am I?, What is purpose?, How do I work this?" Over the past 40-plus years he has looked for the answers in the world of Psychology, Psychotherapy, and Modern Spiritual research. However, it was in 2004, when Peter finally had his own direct experience of 'Satori' ( a glimpse of Enlightenment) while participating in the Enlightenment Intensive process. Peter then spent the next 12 years unpacking its secrets and understanding the keys that created this shift in consciousness. Since 2017 he has been working exclusively to serve others. He shares how a direct experience of self-realization is openly accessible and available to everyone free from the need for any scripture, guru, or religious structure.
