Episode 70: Coming Home to the Clear Light of Being

In this opening discourse from Amoda Maa's first seven-day retreat in Europe, Amoda invites us to discover the clear light of being—not as a mystical experience or future achievement, but as the ever-present awareness already here beneath thought, emotion, sensation, and circumstance.

Awakening is revealed as a quiet but profound shift: from being defined by the story of "me" to resting in that which is unbound by any story or experience. As the effort to become, improve, reject, or grasp begins to soften, a deeper freedom becomes available—not freedom from life, but freedom within life.

This episode also includes an offering of original poetry from Kavi on silence, surrender, and the remembrance that we have never truly left home.

Recorded live during the opening session of the seven-day retreat at Koningsteen Center in Belgium in July 2026.
