What if the peace, freedom, and fulfillment you have been seeking were not something to attain, but something already present, waiting to be recognized?

Online 3 Day IAM Retreat Intensives
The online intensives are held via Zoom, which works amazingly well for this modality. If you feel called to discover what lies beyond the conditioned mind, we invite you to join us.
A Direct Path to Awakening
The Self-Inquiry Dyad Intensive is a powerful three day immersion designed to create the conditions for a direct realization of your true nature. Unlike traditional meditation retreats, where one often practices alone, the dyad process uses conscious relationship as a mirror.
Through a simple yet profound structure, participants engage in a continuous process of Self-inquiry that cuts through habitual patterns of thinking and brings attention directly to the source of experience itself.
Over the years we have explored many spiritual paths, traditions, and practices. Of all the methods we have encountered, we have found the Self-inquiry dyad to be one of the most direct and effective ways to bring about kensho, which is a direct glimpse into one’s true nature beyond the conditioned mind. In our experience the dyad method is about 50 to 100 times faster for realizing kensho than solo meditation practices.

About the Self Inquiry Intensives
The answer is not hidden somewhere in the future.
It is closer than breath, closer than thought.
Closer than the one who is seeking.
