The Journey of Awakening

As we work out how to respond to the time we are living through, we look towards how we can awaken from the illusion of separateness to the reality of interconnectedness.

The talks are given by Nicholas Vesey.

Nicholas has been the minister at the Aspen Chapel since 2014, having come to Colorado from England.
He is the Author of 2 books:
“Developing Consciousness – A Roadmap of the Journey to Enlightenment” published by ‘O Books’ in 2011, and “Living the Life-Force” published by Ozark Mountain Publishing in 2019.

Nicholas has been committed to a path of personal transformation for 40 years; exploring the relationship between consciousness and spirituality through all the great wisdom traditions.

Although he is ordained as an Anglican Priest, he uses the Tao Te Ching, The Upanishads, the Bhagavad Gita, The Dhammapada, and The Koran among many other sacred texts to help him on his path.

His passion is to enable people to find their own paths to understanding the great mysteries of life and to that end he gives talks in the Chapel every Sunday and new episodes will be available here weekly.

1. The Journey Begins
A Ritual of Ashing as we recognize that we die to our false self and take on the role of expressing the divine.

2. The Journey of Awakening
Why and how do we take this journey of awakening. What do we do and where does it lead?

3. The Awakening
The fundamental reality within all consciousness is something that all the great masters awakened to, and is the basis of most of the world's religions.

4. Taking Action
Action and Inaction. When to act and when not to act. Do you have the patience to wait till your mud settles and the water is clear? Can you remain unmoving till the right action arises by itself?

5. Common Wealth
We are stewards not owners of what we have. Let's be good stewards.

6. A Wisdom for Healing Humanity
Balancing the male and the female, the patriarchy and the matriarchy. A marriage that makes for heaven.

7. The Dark Night
Some lessons from living through a dark night of the soul.
