Living Intimately from the Heart of Awareness

with Dorothy Hunt
Saturday, September 15
10:00 am – 5:00 pm

Enlightenment is simply intimacy with all things.
—Zen Master Dogen
We can only be awake Now. Living awake means living intimately and directly, without separation from the deepest truth of our being, and without separation from the moment.  While our true nature is actually empty of definition, empty of concepts, and empty of a separate “me,” it can be felt, intuited, sensed in our daily lives. This retreat day will include silent sitting, experiential exercises, dharma talks, and discussion around the theme of living intimately, living now, and living with devotion to discovering and embodying our deepest truth.  
Dorothy’s latest book, Ending the Search: From Spiritual Ambition to the Heart of Awareness, will be available for purchase and book signing during her weekend with us.

About Dorothy Hunt

Dorothy Hunt serves as spiritual director of Moon Mountain Sangha, teaching at the request and in the spiritual lineage of Adyashanti, who invited her to share the dharma in 2004. She is the founder of the San Francisco Center for Meditation and Psychotherapy and has practiced psychotherapy since 1967, though is now semiretired from that practice.

Dorothy is the author of Ending the Search: From Spiritual Ambition to the Heart of Awareness (to be released from Sounds True in March 2018), Leaves from Moon Mountain (2015), and Only This! Poems and Reflections (2004). She is a contributing author to The Sacred Mirror and Listening from the Heart of Silence (vols. 1 and 2, Nondual Wisdom and Psychotherapy series, 2003/2007), and the online journal Undivided. Her poetry has been  published in several journals, and she is a featured spiritual teacher in the book Ordinary Women, Extraordinary Wisdom by Rita Marie Robinson (2007).

Dorothy has a long and deep connection with the teachings of Ramana Maharshi and the path of self-inquiry, as well as the nondual teachings of Zen, Advaita, and the Christian mystics. In meeting Adyashanti, she was invited beyond identification with either the absolute or relative dimensions of being, finding freedom in what is timelessly awake here and now in each of us, regardless of the changing faces of experience. She lives in San Francisco, and is a mother and grandmother.
Dorothy offers satsang, retreats, and private meetings in the San Francisco Bay Area; Sonoma, California; and elsewhere by invitation. For more information, please visit her website.
