Welcome to the Deceptocene!
For some time, critical theorists have declared that we have entered a new evolutionary period, that they refer to as the Anthropocene era, meaning that our biological fate is now dominated and determined by the human species, which has gained the capability not only to despoil our natural environment and bring about massive poisoning effects due to noxious geo-engineering, atmospheric pollution, genetic modification, and pharmaceutical genocide, but to cause the extinction of all life on our planet (assuming we are even on a planet).

In this early-morning (Amrit Vela) guided meditation, Shunyamurti invites you to rest in pure awareness, beyond mental chatter and the illusion of separation.

Prepare for Death
What is the destination of consciousness beyond the death of the body and beyond the death of the ego? Through a series of profound self-inquiries, you are invited to examine what still binds you to maya, what you value above realization of God, and whether you can remain awake at the center of consciousness regardless of the body's condition.
How Meditation Dissolves Trauma and Ego
In this foundational teaching, Shunyamurti reveals that meditation is not a technique but a return to your center—to the pure awareness that exists prior to thought, identity, and emotion. By letting go of the mind’s constant projections, you can rediscover the natural state of peace, clarity, and wholeness that has never been lost.
Sustain the Awareness of Awareness
In this luminous guided meditation, Shunyamurti guides us inward to the still, radiant core of Pure Awareness. As the mind dissolves into silence, the heart opens to the infinite love and power of the Self. Through deep surrender and wakeful presence, the ego is released, and consciousness is absorbed into the liberating light of the Supreme Being.
The Serene Silence Within the Sound of Presence
In this immersive guided meditation, Shunyamurti leads us into the timeless field of Pure Presence. As attention settles into the "sound of silence," the soul attunes to the eternal vibrational frequency of the Self. This silent current purifies the mind, awakens the Buddha Nature, and reveals the infinite consciousness that remains unchanged whether worlds appear or disappear.
You Can Stop Playing a Fictional Role!
In this guided meditation, Shunyamurti invites us to shift our attention away from the character we believe ourselves to be and into the infinite intelligence that is dreaming the entire theodrama. Through a process of stillness, surrender, and adoration, we are guided to recognize the eternal presence that remains unchanged. This meditation is a portal to resting as the real Self (ever-awake, all-pervading, and infinitely loving) and to allowing that presence to saturate the mind and heart with its radiant light.
