Mission Statement

Could there be anything simple enough to approach a "universal statement"?

Mankind is able to express their feelings and thoughts. When they are unable to express them, then they desire to express themselves through silence. However, all these feelings, thoughts, speech and silence are to indicate that there is something wonderful within us that feels good. Listening about it, talking about it, thinking about it, feeling it, and experiencing it, all of which seem to make us to feel good. What is it? What truth is that?

We notice in our own lives that when the belief in and the urgency of the personal story-line subsides, an ease is brought into life. This will be felt in family relationships, in the community, story of race and religion, in the nation and ultimately in our world. Whether gradual or immediate, this insight seems to self regenerate, and could be called a "path of truth". Spreading this awareness is the only goal of NNH.

With nothing to sell, nothing to gain, no affiliation nor attachments to any teaching or apparent "channel of life's truth" NNH can have NO interest in merely shuffling followers from one teacher to another. Our mission can only be considered successful if we can interest those who have never heard of this message.

This takes a new languaging.

Many sophisticated speakers share a message that may not seem so obvious, and hasten to add that, "the multitudes are not ready for this teaching". We simply say that such a teaching is not ready for the multitudes.

This research is our mission.

In a Nutshell

I was listening to a talk about DNA mapping, which said that in a study of all of the human races 99.9% of the DNA is identical and only 0.1% of DNA differed between the races of human beings.

We could say that the whole of the world drama and suffering is a worshiping of the 0.1% of difference within us. Never Not Here celebrates the 99.9% of similarity.

The magic of meaningful conversation

When the video camera is switched on, there has been an immediate focus to speaking from the heart and saying what is really important to the speaker. With teachers or participants alike, the video cuts through the small chatter and a communion occurs.

I guess that I am really addicted to good conversation. I think that I never had such focused interchanges until just a couple of years ago. Come and join us.

Web Sites on Spiritual growth and Advaita

On the sites that I have visited, teachers and hosts have been writing for 10 - 20 even 30 years. They are so clear, so informative and so sophisticated, and their presentation is flawless.

Somehow I don't see that level of polish ever appearing on NNH pages. Our target is John Q Public, the guy on the street who has never heard of this stuff. Our method is complete innocence. There's got to be a way to say this without reference to anything outside of my already experience. Traditions and lineages inspire, but must lead me away from what is here and now.

Blessed are all the people who have been helped by standing on the shoulders of those giants that came before us. We are a part of you. We appreciate you, but we are that part which looks primarily to now, to see what is here, for this apparent me.

What is the value of Never Not Here?

For me it has been immense. Every square is a chapter in my life, and I am very grateful for the privilege. Because if it wasn't for you, (you who are reading this) I would not have done it.
