But Gangaji is inviting you to engage in an experiment and investigation of really, really just immediately being at home.

In this short video, Rupert explains how we view and interact with the world after “Awakening”. Where as before realization, we view the world as separate and how each interaction and activity can be of benefit to us, after realization our motives for interactions and activities become very different.
In this 6 minute video, Jeff expresses that the whole movement to “live in the now” as promoted by Eckhart Tolle and others turns “Living in Now” as a goal that we should strive for.
