Teachings

Katie Davis offers public talks for churches and organizations and is a Keynote Presenter. She points to freedom from the ego state of consciousness, its time, conditioned thought and negativity. In this manner, we sense a more genuine aliveness, while living in the present moment as timeless presence. She recommends conscious breathing and becoming more aware of the body's sensing. It is possible that presence might lead to spiritual awakening.

Davis also offers satsang, intensives and retreats for those seeking spiritual enlightenment and Self-realization. As presence, we are able to rest silently as "I am," rather than "I am this or that" and with self-inquiry, attention shifts to the "I" thought that is the "I am the body" idea.

The ego "I" functions as an illusory veil that ties a knot between pure consciousness and the body. In this identification with the false "I," we are unable to become conscious of the sacred dimension that lies within.

Self-observation and witnessing are important keys. Through silent and still watching, we directly recognize all that we are not. When all that is false is spontaneously surrendered, what remains is who we already are.

Once we are able to rest solely as "I am," she recommends self-inquiry by asking the most essential question, "Who am I?" The ego "I" is an altered state of consciousness, but has within it the fundamental pure consciousness. This question unties the knot and removes the illusory veil, so that we may realize that we are already pure Awareness; purely being-consciousness-bliss.

Self-realization is the end of all psychological suffering.
