 A Heart Felt Thanks to our subscribers and visitors for the gift of your Interest, Time, and Donations in response to our last newsletter.

The response to our survey was overwhelming and deeply appreciated.  Your donations have helped us to meet the challenge of repairing the website and updating it’s focus.

Thousands visited the site the day the newsletter was published. More than 400 of you took the time to respond to the survey with detailed comments- comments that will allow us to better serve the interest in Self Inquiry.

 93% reported that Stillnessspeaks was a valuable resource and helpful on their journey.  In a market now filled with many alternative resources, the website was not viewed as redundant. Truly, your response is humbling.

 So, thank you. Please take a few moments to read a bit more about how you have helped us already by clicking here.

A single beam of Light:

Sometimes, the briefest of expressions re-kindles the spaceless experiencing of our eternal reality. Perhaps, it gently  points, not so much to the contents of awareness, but awareness itself.  Here, we share a brief glimpse, hoping to share its scent with you. 

Can you spare just a few moments to consider with me the direction in which StillnessSpeaks is heading?

In one of StillnessSpeaks final DVD interview projects with Chris Hebard, Jac O'Keeffe invites us to explore what is meant when pointing 'prior to Consciousness', walking us through the mechanics of the apparent process of manifestation, revealing genuine 'causeless' happiness.
