WELCOME FROM THE EXECUTIVE PRODUCER
Hi Friends,
It's been an incredible journey since we first released Know Thyself (2023), the opening film in the Awakening Mind Series followed by The Mind Unveiled (2024). Over the past two years, we've had the privilege of interviewing remarkable teachers, authors, scientists, and philosophers. Now, we’re excited to share the next chapter in this transformative journey— LIBERATION.
Awakening Mind Films
Part 3, “Liberation” (Coming in 2025)
"If the mind is turned inwards towards the source of thought, where is the individual? The mind merges into its source, the Heart, and dissolves like a salt doll that has fallen into the ocean." —Ramana Maharshi
“Liberation” is the complete dissolution of personal self-identity and unconscious conditioning allowing pure Awareness to flow without obstruction. Through self-inquiry, one turns inward to directly recognize their true nature where meditation and inquiry merge into effortless being.
Key Themes:
- Dissolution of the Separate Self: Liberation is the complete falling away of personal identity and mental conditioning.
- Self-Inquiry as the Direct Path: The question "Who am I?" turns attention inward, revealing one’s true nature beyond thought.
- Effortless Being: As the illusion of self dissolves, practices vanish, leaving only the natural state of Awareness.
This episode features one-on-one Dyads, as practiced in the I Am Retreats led by Dan Schmidt and inspired by the Enlightenment Intensives of Charles Berner. It will also include insightful conversations with Regina Dawn Akers, Michael James, Rupert Spira, Swami Sarvapriyananda, Sadhvi Bhagawati Saraswati, Neale Donald Walsch, Sri Ramanacharana Tirtha Swami, Louise Kay, Dr. Sarada Natarajan, Amoda Maa, Tom Das, and Helen Hamilton—offering a rich tapestry of perspectives on self-inquiry.
Your continued support and enthusiasm inspire us, and we look forward to sharing this next step in the journey with you.
With gratitude and excitement,
Bill Free
Executive Producer
