21st Century Spiritual Practice with Saniel Bonder and Linda Groves-Bonder

In this conversation with spiritual teachers Linda Groves-Bonder and Saniel Bonder we discuss some of the key attributes of a 21st century spiritual practice. We pay particular attention to healing the spirit / matter split that is so prevalent in many pre-modern traditions East and West and continues into modernity where spirit is completely stifled and we are left with an entirely mechanistic view of life. We also explore the different experiences of Awakening: waking up as transcendent formless awareness up and out of life, and waking down as formless awareness intimately expressed as matter in the ultimate paradox of the Heart. Saniel and Linda teach, and live from the view that there is no final destination called Enlightenment or Awakening. Awakening is simply a ‘2nd birth’ and what follows is an unending evolutionary unfolding of ever greater complexity and nuance. Another key aspect of their teaching is that it is based around mutuality - we are all in this together and as teachers they help facilitate our own learning and understanding rather that pour doctrine into us as is so common in the traditional context.
