The Engoldenment Course by Andrew Harvey

Facilitate your own renewal at this crossroads and open to the beauty of your true divinity.

Have you found yourself wondering over the last weeks if there’s a deeper meaning behind the global health crisis we’re all dealing with?

It’s become undeniably clear that there’s an urgent need for profound healing, on a personal level and for the entire planet.

Many of the great mystical traditions throughout our history have been preparing us for this moment of worldwide catastrophe — understanding that this day would come — and they’ve equipped us with every practice and tool we need…

… to ride out the storm, and also to learn from the pain of it, and transmute it into a more engoldened state of being — both personally and collectively.

Many of us are feeling a dire need to dig deep and master the art of remaining calm and centered, even when we’re surrounded by darkness…

As frightening as this time is, there’s also tremendous opportunity for rebirth, just as great spiritual thinkers have predicted throughout history.

We CAN emerge on the other side deeply transformed — with a higher level of consciousness and greater access to compassion, generosity, love, inner peace, and a passion to serve humanity.

It’s time to get very clear about what’s at stake in this moment — our very humanity and the health of our world — and become truly committed to timeless sacred practices with an intensity that hasn’t been required of us until now.

Now is the time to do our internal work and dive deep into our inner well — to discover what’s standing in the way of becoming the most glorious version of ourselves.

This is the moment.

In this powerfully transformative 12-week journey with internationally renowned scholar, mystic, and author Andrew Harvey, you’ll discover how to truly commit to and rely on the power of sacred practice — with an intensity you may never before have imagined — to help facilitate this urgently needed rebirth…

Throughout 9 profound modules and 3 integration sessions, Andrew will guide you toward a radical transfiguration process.

More than a transformation of consciousness, transfiguration is the death of the false self and egoic illusions, enabling us to emerge as beings of divine light… mind, body, and soul.

When this death of false self beckons you into the darkness of the unknown, something new is forged within you… a sacred identity.

This process is precisely what will help you shed your illusions and embody the brilliance of an awakened life.

During this intimate, courageous, and incomparably rewarding journey, you’ll discover:

• Timeless spiritual practices the great mystical traditions shared with us long ago — to prepare us for this very moment in time
• The direct experiences of those who’ve been deep in the throes of their transfiguration processes — for instance, many people describe a feeling of the body becoming its own immense universe
• What you can learn from discoveries in modern astrophysics — and how to apply this wisdom to your own transfiguration journey
• Why your intellectual and emotional minds are trying to keep you safe — yet are also holding you back on this spiritual journey
• Why transfiguration can only take place after you understand the divinity of your fundamental nature — the deathless self
• Why your sensory mind is responsible for your many bodily reactions to the world around you — dictated by habits, media, education, and more
• Your physical mind’s hypnotic power… and why it’s the most difficult of all the layers of the body to transfigure
• Your physical mind’s defeatist memory that can often leave you feeling lost or imprisoned
• How you can descend into the depths of your physical mind to experience the darkness — then find your own way through it
• How to spiritually prepare for what’s next — for you as an individual, and for humanity and our larger world

You have the power to transmute the darkness and become your divine self.

Sometimes, life hands us challenges so difficult, so heartbreaking, we experience a “Dark Night of the Soul” — an initiation that radically changes who we are and how we perceive the world.

And what can be considered a dark night, if not this pandemic?

In the transfiguration process, the solution is not to fix or deny the darkness. It’s to experience the depth and breadth of suffering. Only then can you discover the divinity of your fundamental nature — your authentic state of being…

… and transmute the suffering into something completely and radically new and far more pure.

Think of the caterpillar, for example, whose form has to break down entirely and dissolve before it emerges as a completely different being — the butterfly.

And this, according to Andrew, is what we, as a global collective, are called upon to do at this time.

We’re being called to tap into our divinity, so we can become kinder, more empathic, wiser, more creative… and more of service in the world.

In the divine mind there is a dream which has been already realized… a dream of an embodied divine humanity fully committed to justice and harmony in action for all sentient beings and for a unified planet. As you can imagine, this is profoundly explosive and almost unimaginable to normal consciousness.
— Andrew Harvey

What You’ll Discover in These 12 Weeks

In this 12-week transformational intensive, Andrew will guide you toward an embodied divine humanity — and a deeply meaningful life — with wisdom and practices he’s gained over decades… as he’s dedicated his life to this life-altering work.

This course will feature LIVE teachings, interactive training sessions, and experiential practices with Andrew. Each session will build harmoniously upon the previous ones, so you’ll develop a complete holistic understanding of the practices, tools, and principles you’ll need to cultivate spiritual devotion and draw inner strength throughout these frightening and uncertain times…

Module 1: Constructing the True View (April 22)

Transfiguration is the process of surrendering completely to our own spiritual evolution and the healing of our planet.

It’s the “Supreme Secret” at the core of all mystical traditions — and humanity’s ultimate destination.

To take a journey into true transfiguration, you’ll first need to unlearn the many shallow messages the patriarchal mystical systems have likely instilled in you — and in all of us.

In this opening week, Andrew will guide you to take the initial steps to construct what he calls the true view — of yourself, life, and this Universe…

…that’s as glorious, hopeful, joyful, impassioned, and magnificent as it can be.

In this first module, you’ll explore:

• What you’ve likely learned from what Andrew calls your addiction to transcendence — an addiction you may not have realized you had
• How to attune your entire practice of transfiguration to a vision in line with the true view
• Why the profound teachings of Kashmiri Shaivism (a religious and philosophical system of India) most accurately understands how essential it is to cultivate the most glorious view of who we really are
• A practice designed to help you transfigure your heart, mind, soul, and body

Module 2: What You Must Understand About the Divine Feminine Right Now (April 29)

There can be no transfiguration process without a total celebration of the Divine Feminine…

And so this second week of your journey will be devoted to the role of the Divine Feminine, the birthing power of the universe.

Andrew will walk you through this Divine Feminine in all her majesty, magnificence, terror, beauty, and tenderness.

As you’ll discover, this point in your transfiguration practices requires a radical revisioning of what you think you understand about the Divine Feminine.

In this module, you’ll discover:

• Why the transfiguration process is absolutely impossible without comprehending the two opposite sides of the feminine: both as the tender force of the Mary, AND the Kali, the feminine, terrifying, destructive creative force
• The many ways your new understanding of — and relationship with — the Divine Feminine should stretch beyond reason
• The absolute adoration of the mother, in all her different forms and faces
• How you can incorporate the feminine into a full vision of yourself, your heart, and your mind
• The importance of surrendering to whatever the Divine Feminine puts you through on your path to transfiguration

Module 3: How Discoveries of Modern Astrophysics Impact Your Journey (May 6)

In this pivotal third week, Andrew will guide you through what he calls the radical, paradoxical, infinitely bizarre, strange — and yet, amazing! — discoveries of modern astrophysics.

As you’ll explore, the latest discoveries in both physics and astrophysics have shed even more light on the many paradoxes within our Universe — and how our world is likely more open to divine transformative energies than we ever realized.

In this module, you’ll explore:

• How modern physics is revealing a wholly new vision of what matter is
• What you can learn from discoveries in modern astrophysics — and how to apply this wisdom to your own transfiguration journey
• The lessons that people who’ve experienced the fringes of transfiguration have discovered
• The direct experiences of those who’ve been deep in the throes of their transfiguration processes — for instance, many people describe a feeling of the body becoming its own immense universe, which corresponds to experiences in physics where particles on Earth have behaved in the same ways as identical particles that are millions of miles away
• How crystallized light energy often behaves in fantastical, paradoxical ways that can open up dazzling possibilities for you — if you commit to what Andrew calls working in devotion

Integration Session #1 (May 13)

This first of three integration sessions will begin with a short centering practice.

You’ll then dive into an in-depth conversation with Andrew about the teachings in the first three modules — and have the opportunity to ask questions and share experiences arising in you.

What reactions have you noticed in yourself these last three weeks? How can you take the foundational wisdom you’ve been learning and apply it to your life?

You’re welcome to bring your questions and reflections with you as you connect with Andrew and your fellow participants during this session.

Module 4: The Intellectual Mind & the Emotional Mind (May 27)

As you move forward in your transfiguration process, you must silence two inner systems that have been with you your entire life, trying their best to protect you…

… one, your intellectual mind, full of thoughts and mental chatter, and two, your emotional mind, complete with its whirlwind of inherited sufferings and obsessions.

This week, Andrew will share with you:

• Why your intellectual and emotional minds are trying to keep you safe — yet are also holding you back on this spiritual journey
• What the great masters of transfiguration, the alchemists, and the other great beings understood about their intellectual and emotional minds
• What it means to descend into the depths of the body — and how it can help you unlock essential wisdom on the road to your most profound transformation
• The reasons transfiguration can only take place after you understand the divinity of your fundamental nature — the deathless self
• Simple practices to help you implement this new wisdom into your daily life

Module 5: The Sensory Mind & the Physical Mind (June 3)

Now that you’ve studied how the intellectual mind and the emotional mind affect your journey…

… Andrew will guide you to understand your sensory and physical minds more deeply.

This week you’ll discover how your sensory mind emcompasses reactions and sensations — like weariness, sleepiness, fear, pain, and pleasure. It’s also in charge of your likes and dislikes, attraction and aggression, tension and relaxation, and more.

Your physical mind, meanwhile, is the fundamental mind that has a hypnotic power that can keep you trapped in darkness — and as you’ll discover, you must quiet your physical mind to get to your spirit.

This week you’ll explore:

• Why your sensory mind is responsible for your many bodily reactions to the world around you — dictated by habits, media, education, and more
• Your physical mind’s hypnotic power… and why it’s the most difficult of all the layers of the body to transfigure
• The ways your physical mind condenses and crystallizes matter
• Your physical mind’s defeatist memory that can often leave you feeling lost or imprisoned
• How you can descend into the depths of your physical mind to experience the darkness — then find your own way through it
• Powerful practices to help you understand your body’s reactive web and move through the limits of both your sensory mind and your physical mind

Integration Session #2 (June 10)

In this second session for integration with Andrew and your classmates, you’ll delve deeper into what you’ve been learning as you ask Andrew your questions and share your thoughts and experiences.

Just as importantly, you’ll listen to — and learn from — your classmates’ reflections and insights as you discover more about your fellow seekers and their experiences.

Module 6: Transforming the Mind’s Physical Cells (June 17)

True spiritual renewal changes everything, down to the very cells in your body.

In this first of two sessions all about cells and transfiguration, Andrew will share exactly how this process takes place — and what it means for your own transformation.

As you’ll discover, the true change of consciousness will change the physical conditions in the world, making it into an entirely new creation.

In this module, you’ll explore:

• Why the transfiguration process involves what Andrew calls the peeling away of the layers of the body
• The absolute necessity of altering the mind as you transform
• The many reasons transformed physical cells can no longer obey the same laws of repetition and death they once followed
• How transfigured physical cells embody the divine consciousness and become attuned to pure joy
• What we can learn from what the influential spiritual teacher Aurobindo called the supramental consciousness — the supreme consciousness-force in the very heart of matter, without any intermediary

Module 7: Transforming the Cells Using Mantra (June 24)

Building on what you learned last week about transforming your cells, you’ll now delve into how the Divine Mother transformed the cells by using a beautifully simple mantra: Om Namo Bhagavate (Divine)…

Through the immense power of the mantra, she awoke to a new, immortal, universal being — and what she taught us can bring about true rebirth and transformation in our modern lives…

In this module, you’ll discover:

• The Divine Mother’s example of radiating the power of the mantra into the depths of the cells and their structure — so they no longer follow the old template of death
• What you can learn from her astounding experience of being everywhere on the planet at the same time
• The new source of golden power she discovered — and how it then erupted into the body
• The many stunning ways her experiences line up with what astrophysicists have learned about the laws of the universe
• The 13 written volumes she left behind for us to learn from, complete with descriptions of her profound experiences — and why they’re still unlike anything the world’s ever seen

Module 8: Why Transitional Crisis Feels Terrifying at First — And How It Brings About Rebirth (July 1)

In this week’s class, Andrew will share what you can expect as you go through this process…

He’ll share some of the many profound first-person accounts of what this new birth feels like for those who have been through it.

Anyone going on this transfiguration journey must be prepared for the body to go through very bizarre afflictions — because it’s learning a new, holy way of being and doing everything.

In this module, you’ll discover:

• What it means to be pulverized and invaded by the birthing light of the supramental — as firsthand accounts of transfiguration have described it
• What’s actually happening when someone is experiencing a new kind of body — and why this profound experience is taking place both locally in the body AND universally
• What happens when the body is no longer held back by the ego and its false self — including suddenly being open to clairvoyant understandings of the universe
• What sets this process apart from so many other mystical experiences

Module 9: What’s Next for You — and Our World (July 8)

As this journey comes to a close, you’ll begin to process everything you’ve learned — and consider what the next steps in your own transformation process will look like…

Andrew will take you through an overview of the course… and guide you to think through how you can best prepare for what you need to do — or be — to continue through your own transformation in a world that’s collapsing.

Andrew will guide you to ask yourself powerful questions, including:

• Where are we now as a race in the transfiguration process?
• What will the next spiritual developments look like — for you as an individual, and for humanity and our larger world?
• How can you best prepare for what’s next?

Final Integration Session (July 15)

In light of all you’ve discovered on this journey with Andrew — what is your vision?

How has your understanding of this pivotal time in history grown throughout the transmissions and practices?

How will you move forward in your own life?

In this final integration session, Andrew will guide you through a short practice…

You’ll then dive into a sacred conversation with Andrew and your fellow participants about the teachings you’ve explored together in these final modules. You’ll have a chance to ask any questions and reflect on your experiences.

The Engoldenment Process

Video Teaching From Andrew Harvey

Andrew Harvey describes the process of engoldenment — of turning to gold in heart, mind, soul, and body through union with the One. He explores the sublime poetry of humanity’s universal mystical poet, Kabir, whom he celebrates as the pioneer of the next stage of human evolution.

Celebrating Angelus Silesius

Video Dialogue With Andrew Harvey and Matthew Fox

Andrew and Matthew discuss Andrew’s latest book, Becoming God, and the extraordinary mystical depth of the being it celebrates, Angelus Silesius. Silesius underwent the process of transfiguration and the 108 epigrams in the book represent the process itself in an illumined way that Matthew and Andrew celebrate.

Matthew Fox is a prolific author of books that are renewing the ancient tradition of Creation Spirituality. This tradition is feminist, welcoming of the arts and artists, wisdom-centered, prophetic, and caring about eco-justice, social justice, and gender justice. Fox’s effort to reawaken the West to its own mystical tradition has included revivifying awareness of Hildegard of Bingen, Meister Eckhart and the mysticism of Thomas Aquinas, as well as interacting with contemporary scientists who are also mystics. He believes that “by reinventing work, education, and worship, we can bring about a nonviolent revolution on our planet,” and has committed himself to this vision for many years, most recently by setting out 95 theses for a new reformation of Christianity.

Kabir Turn Me to Gold: An Introduction to Kabir & a Reading

Video Recording From Andrew Harvey

This video celebrates the great 15th-century Indian mystic Kabir, whose testimony to the wild and holy process of transfiguration is needed now more than ever.

Kabir was a mystic poet and saint of India whose writings have greatly influenced the Bhakti movement. Many legends abound about the birth, life, and death of Kabir, one of India’s most quoted poets and mystics. His birth itself is shrouded in mystery; some say he was the son of a Brahman widow, others that he was of virgin birth. What is known is that he was brought up in a family of Muslim weavers. He was never formally educated and was almost completely illiterate. Legend has it that he relinquished his body when he was about 120 years old.
