Meditation With Garin

Meditative Nature Walks and Sitting Meditation

I

offer a consistent meditation class every Friday and Sunday morning to begin your day. If interested, I also lead meditative nature walks for individuals and small groups. If you and a pod of friends (kids to adults) want a customized experience to explore, learn, and connect to the wonders of our local multi-faceted forests, then my meditative nature walks are for you. If you or a small group want to begin or deepen a meditation practice, please reach out directly or sign up for one of my meditation classes.

Meditation is about being aware. Awareness is not dual, meaning it is completely present and beyond thought. It is a seeing that doesn’t escape. It sees what is, and in that seeing comes an understanding that is not forced by thought. By tapping into non-dual awareness, we will break through the ego barriers.

Nondual awareness is innate in each one of us. It is a deep listening that has no direction, is not about right or wrong, and is a presence that will bring you into a deep understanding of one's nature. One will begin to see that meditation is not just sitting or walking but in all areas of one’s life. By bringing awareness into all areas, one will discover a profound, undifferentiated openness to the nature of reality.

Nondual awareness lives in the Now.

The Now is the only place where one can be.

The Now is where you truly live.

Stuck in conditioned thought, constantly moving from the past to the future creates an illusionary barrier to the Now.

Nondual awareness brings one back into presence

and shines a light

on the illusionary aspect of thoughting and the personalized self.

If we stopped rushing and listened in complete openness, letting our minds be quiet, we would see that all illusions slip away, and in that quiet, wholeness is directly experienced. To see clearly, the mind needs to be silent.

Meditation is the ending of the self-centered activity of the mind, and with practice, you will discover immeasurable Wholeness, calm, and love.

Likewise, if you want to end fear, delusion, and ignorance while deeply connecting to reality, this is for you.
