Meet Miles

Quick fix culture has failed us. Its time we commit to the hard work, over the long haul, that it takes to become fully human.

My favorite feed right now is offered by @tearfuldishwasher, who I met on insta. He inspires me everyday with his authenticity and free spirit. I can see he’s not selling anything or collecting fans, but sharing his journey because it brings him such joy and meaning. I call him a modern day Milarepa, because he’s wondering from here to there, seemingly untethered by the burdens of modern living. In him I see someone who is working on realizing the Three Principles of the Path that I write on in the book: Renunciation, Bodhichitta, and Wisdom. Thank you brother, keep doing your thing! 👊🙏❤️ #Repost @tearfuldishwasher with @get_repost

Taking my time with @milesneale's wonderful book, "Gradual Awakening." I'm incredibly grateful to him for writing this book and sharing the gradual path, the Lam Rim, with all of us fortunate enough to read it. I find his writing to be direct, clear, focused, and deeply grounded in tradition. But he also brings freshness, vitality, and a modern perspective that reflects his training as a psychotherapist. I wish someone could have put this book in my hands the first time I stepped foot into a Dharma center! Tibetan Buddhism is a vast landscape that can seem forbidding and overwhelming to a western beginner. Dr. Neale's book offers a beautiful orientation, a map of the territory, and the assistance of an experienced guide to lead the reader step by step towards genuine awakening. I'm enjoying being in his company so much! Seeing these teachings through his eyes brings me new understanding and appreciation for something I already love deeply. Reading the true Dharma is, for me, a somatic experience, and this book gives me chills!
Do yourself a favor and get this book if you're at all feeling the call.
Thank you, @milesneale. I'm forever in your debt. Thank you for your book, for your work, for your practice, and for giving yourself so fully to the path. Emaho!!! Namaste y'all.

Yoga teacher. Author. Pioneer. Mother. Entrepreneur. Role model. Powerful Woman. What’s there not to admire and respect about @elenabrower? Grateful for her endorsement, and more importantly all she does to guide others along the gradual path of awakening. The book officially released yesterday, I hope you’ll help me make sure it gets into the hands of those that have been around the mindfulness block for sometime now and are wondering what the next step might be...

I’ll be offering a guided visualization on Becoming Fully Human along with a book signing @itmworld in Toronto this Friday night at 7 pm. The event is part of the @deathsymposium a historic weekend conference on living and dying with integrity also curated by the amazing @itmworld and hosted at the @uoft. The world is indeed waking up out of the deep slumber of modernity to reclaim its lost humanity. I hope you can make it. Link in bio.

Every stop on the gradual awakening world tour I plan on offering a guided visualization on the process of becoming fully human. We’ll be requesting our mentors and Spirit guides for the blessings we need to heal, reclaim our lost humanity, and become altruistic agents of change. This anointment doesn’t come top down or even from the outside, as there’s nothing special about me. It’s a ritual performance - a psychodrama - in which we each go within and finally give ourselves permission to become all we are meant to be, at a time when the planet needs us most. Om Ah Hum.

After 20 years a book is born. Here are some pics by the talented @katia_repina from the opening NYC book launch @tibethouse.us . There’s a meditation in the Tibetan tradition called ‘remembering their kindness’ where you consider how a single object or moment has come to fruition as a result of the great kindness and effort of countless living beings. Even a few moments contemplating this brings tears. I’m speechless. You know who you are. Each and every one of you...this is ours to celebrate, and ours to share. May others benefit. This is how life is made meaningful.
Om Ah Hum.
