Christopher ‘Hareesh’ Wallis – What is Awakening [Webrip – 2 MP3, 1 RTF]

The journey of awakening often begins spontaneously and joyously, but soon falters if you don’t have a clear sense of where it is headed. This foundational teaching explains why all the schools of yoga articulate two goals for the practice: Awakening to your true nature & Liberation from all mind-created suffering. Download this talk and find out how Awakening and Liberation (bodha and moksha) are two aspects of one process called Yoga.

The Six Layered Self Hareesh explores through discussion, the model of the Six Layered Self as described in Tantrik texts. The notion is that suffering arises from us identifying with solely one or more of the peripheral layers. These are Stuff (Vastu), Body (Deha), Mind (Citta/Heart), Prana (Life Force), Void (Shunya/Transcendent), and Core (Cit). Freedom arises when we penetrate to the Core, resting our identity there and emanating that essence through all the layers of being to experience an undivided Self.

What is Awakening? Actualize the Goal of YogaAll the ancient masters of yoga without exception say that this practice has a purpose: full awakening to our real nature and radical freedom from all mind-created suffering. So why is there so little discussion of that goal and how we can realistically attain it? This provocative workshop will present powerful teachings from the yoga traditions that clarify the nature of the path, the goal, and the obstacles along the way. When these become clear, our road suddenly seems shorter, we see that we have what it takes to walk it, and our whole life in energized by that conviction. Join us for uncensored straight talk about the ups, downs, and apparent shadows of the journey.

Testimonials ““Chris Wallis’ Heart of Recognition class has been a transformative experience in my yogic education. The text itself and Chris’ translation and commentary are moving, powerful, and applicable to so many facets of our life and inquiry as yogins. Yet beyond the text, it was Chris’ dedication to his students and to addressing and anticipating their need for background information to more fully access the text under study that made the class a singular experience. And it was Chris’ ability to foster a sense of kula through sharing, dialogue, mantra recitation and laughter that transformed what could have been only a class into true satsang.

I look forward to continuing my studies with Chris for many years to come.”— 2010 Heart of Recognition Student ““Chris Wallis and the rest of his facilitators have planted a seed of hope that the world is a loving place and they showed me how to tap into this loving energy. Silence, stillness, and deep breathing are now a vital part of my everyday life. I thank Chris for this.”— U.C Berkeley Student ““I wish that my life and schedule would have allowed me to attend more of Hareesh’s beautiful classes. Each evening that I was fortunate enough to be there was more of an experience than a class – a gathering of a powerful community, working with amazing teachings and a masterful guide to feed our souls to the point of perfect satiation. He is so articulate and has a way of making these Ancient Teachings accessible to those truly wanting to receive them. He also cares deeply for the practice and all those who choose to partake in it. Thank you Hareesh for being a glistening mirror,  reflecting the truth and love within all hearts.”— Student San Francisco
