Workshop: Remote Viewing and Transformation of Consciousness
Saturday, April 21
New Mexico Room   3:30pm to 5:00pm

Targ, a physicist and consciousness researcher, will describe how we can learn to surrender the story of who we think we are, and experience the end of our suffering. This is a path that can provide direct experience of the fact that the peace, love, and spaciousness we are all looking for is already within us. This program brings together the enduring teachings of the East on peacefulness and self-realization, and puts them into a modern framework emphasizing experience over belief. Targ demonstrates that the dualistic logic of Aristotle is a significant source of suffering today. It is through his writings on non-contradiction that we are falsely taught that we and the Divine are separate —rather than one. Targ will also provide an opportunity to experience your own true nature as nonlocal awareness.
