Leonard Jacobson shared the teachings from his most recent work Liberating Jesus as well as about his upcoming book which he plans to release in February of 2023.
For those of you who haven’t heard of Leonard Jacobson, here’s some information about him.
Leonard teaches how to become fundamentally present and how to arise in mastery of your mind and ego, so that you are no longer involuntarily pulled out of Presence. Leonard embodies a profound depth of Presence and his teachings are a powerful reminder that in truth, there is no life outside of this moment. He has been guiding people how to be present for over 40 years.
Leonard teaches that the fully awakened state of consciousness is available now. It is not something that occurs in the future. It is not something that we can arrive at through spiritual practice. It is already here, waiting to be revealed. As you awaken into the present moment, your thoughts will stop, your mind will fall silent, and you will awaken to an inner silence and peace that is beyond understanding. You will begin to encounter what the mystics and Masters have been speaking of for centuries.
One of the most significant aspects of Leonard’s teaching is his unique insight into the nature of the mind and ego. Leonard teaches us how to come into right relationship with the ego in a way that helps the ego to relax, and he teaches us how to integrate awakened consciousness into everyday life and relationships.
He is the founder of The Conscious Living Foundation, a registered non-profit organization. In 2005, he was awarded the Peace Prize by Religious Science International, although he is not affiliated or associated with any religion or church. His teaching is both inclusive of, and transcendent of, all religions and spiritual traditions. It is for all those genuinely seeking to awaken, and for all those who want to overcome the pain and limitations of the past, and open into a more loving and abundant world.
Leonard is the author of six books, Words from Silence, Journey into Now, Embracing the Present, Bridging Heaven & Earth, Liberating Jesus and In Search of the Light, a winner of the Indie Children’s book award. Journey into Now has been translated into eight different languages.
He lives in Asheville, North Carolina and offers evening teaching sessions, weekend workshops, and longer residential retreats in the United States, Europe, Australia and Asia.

This program is Awakening Together’s In the Company of Truth with Helen Hamilton which airs on the first Wednesday monthly from 3-4 pm ET. Helen’s core message is that the Realization of the True Self is possible for everyone, no matter what background you may have as long as you want it more than anything else. After all, we are only returning to our natural state, to what we already are. We are only coming to live as that Truth consciously.
Having reached a place of total peace, love, and joy, Helen has dedicated her life to helping others wake up too. The Truth is here and now and accessible to all. Helen will offer her teachings in this monthly Satsang to help you realize and BE the Self you already are.

Chelan is the author of two beautiful books of spiritual poetry. Her first collection is called Susceptible to Light. Her most recent book is Let Us Dance! The Stumble And Whirl With The Beloved.
Chelan describes her poetry collections this way:
“Let Us Dance! The Stumble And Whirl With The Beloved, is here to inspire you to harness your beautiful, dynamic power and look the world directly in the eye. It emboldens the reader to let go of shames and shoulds with The Beloved and entices you to step up to the dance floor of your life and ask The Divine for a whirl.“
“Susceptible to Light… is mystical and ecstatic in nature… (it) is here to remind you of your joy, to assist you in reconsidering ways of relating to your life that better serve and open your heart; to deconstruct anything about God that doesn’t feel close, intimate, authentic, and warm; and to remind your soul to break the surface and take a breath.”
If you would like to learn more about Chelan you can visit her website ChelanHarkin.com. You can also find her on social media on Instagram (@chelanharkin) and on Facebook (Chelan Harkin Poetry). If you would like to purchase her books you can do so through Amazon here.

Pieter shared in this hour his deep love for the book A Course of Love. Pieter says this book is different in the sense that it is not a course you can learn by the intellect. It speaks in a way that is different from learning. In short, it speaks through joining. This book is written for the mind but only to move the mind to appeal to the heart.
Here’s some helpful information on what “A Course of Love” is: https://acourseoflove.org/
“Most books enter our lives to inform us. A Course of Love enters our lives to transform us. A Course of Love (ACOL) is one of those few: a book that changes lives. ACOL is a complete course on Self-knowledge leading to lasting benefits to your life. It’s not a book of mental concepts, but one that reaches into your heart and works a transformation.”
“ACOL posits that all changes we would like to see happening in our lives, even in the world, stem from a single change: moving from seeing ourselves as separate individuals, to seeing the truth that we are an integral part of life, and of an eternal Consciousness that exists in Unity.”
Pieter shared from his heart what A Course of Love has meant for him in his life. He introduced the Awakening Together community to this text by looking at the introduction with participants.
In this program, Paul through the vehicle of Satsang and repetition will be helping us to let go of misidentification and recognize Being Consciousness as our Truth.
Paul suggests repetition through Satsangs is helpful. It is an example of how the dreamING repurposes another programming element, repetition. What was used to (mis)identify, becomes instead a helpful undoing within the dreaming of that identification. The helpfulness of the Message is recognized in what Paul calls “traveling lighter.” In the surrender of an assumed need to escape/improve, the ever-present reality of consciousness already now/here becomes where our interest stays. Being consciousness in contact (in/as/through sensory experiencING), we appreciate being “successful” – already, as that Reality.
