Friday, March 20, 2026 in NYC Times Square
Friday, March 27, 2026 — The Map Home: The Four Noble Truths for Our Time (from Chapter 3)
We began at Times Square on March 20th.
We opened a living field of connection, expression, and embodied awakening that continues to unfold all month
In the coming days we invite you into a deeper experience.
🌿 March 27–31 — A Global Online Gathering
Across five days, we will come together as a worldwide community to explore the teachings of Coming Home to Embodied Awakening through:
Soulful readings from the book
Poetry and spoken word
Music and live teachings
Guided movement and Qigong practice
Shared space for reflection and connection
Each day offers a different doorway — a different way to feel, embody, and integrate this work into your own life.
This is not just content to watch.
It is an experience to enter.
A space to soften.
A rhythm to return to.
Whether you join one session or all five days, you’ll be part of something rare:
A global community choosing presence over distraction.
Connection over isolation.
Embodiment over abstraction.

Between 44th & 45th Street near the I Love NY Store
In the heart of Times Square, on the street surrounded by the energy, movement, and intensity of the city… we created something entirely different together on Friday, March 20, 2026.
A pause.
A presence.
A field of awareness in the midst of it all.
There was
A small circle of invited guests
Live filming and shared celebration
Spontaneous moments of connection and joy
It was ground-breaking, high-energy fun, and meditative all at the same time! You can find the replay on YouTube here.
