On the 24th of May, We had the wonderful opportunity to once again meet with the internationally renowned teacher of non-duality Rupert Spira. Rupert started with an introduction on the subject of Self-Inquiry or Self-Investigation which lies at the heart of all great spiritual and religious teachings. Rupert then continued with a meditation on the nature of consciousness or awareness, and conducted an elegant masterpiece, guiding us towards our Being.

Some of the questions from the audience included the following themes:

1) Encountering existential problems on the path of awakening

2) Possibility of becoming indifferent to our life's challenges as a consequence of non-duality

3) How to experience the body in a way that is consistent with non-duality

4) The possible explanatory gap between experientially realizing our subjective nature as being infinite, and concluding that Being itself is infinite.

This event was jointly organized by the Oxford Psychedelic Society and 'On The Verge' a podcast platform and an event organizer focusing on bringing consciousness-expanding topics to the forefront of public awareness.
