PROGRAM SERIES

(click the arrow below)





Rarely, in the West, do we hear about the depth of Zen beyond philosophy…until now. Aspire offers to you this 4-CD set entitled: The Sound Of One Hand Clapping. This very unusual series offers the listener insights into ancient Zen Stories that hold the meaning of what EMPTINESS is…and how deeply important no-thing is to our spiritual experience. In the West, most teachers avoid these teachings due to the sense that students may not be interested in Emptiness in a culture and society that worships overindulgence in gratifications.

But in this series, Gregory will help you come to the place where you may recognize the profound value of a Life lived in Silence, Emptiness and Space. These are the essence of an authentic Spiritual Life…and its practice. If you are sincere and deeply interested in the profound sense of a Spiritual Life, one that moves beyond fear and a society filled will compulsion and mania, you will find this beautiful Zen series of great importance to your Life.

NOBODY LIKES YOU ANY WAY
A Telly Award Winning Series

LISTEN TO GREGORY’S DESCRIPTION OF THIS TV SERIES
(click the arrow below)



From the moment you were born, you were constantly told what you had to be to be loved. You were taught to get love and happiness from the outer world. Whether it be conscious or unconscious, most people are looking for Love in ALL the wrong places. Living to improve your Life through the world is called self esteem. This method will never bring you Love. Love has nothing to do with how others treat you. If you are tired of trying to get Love from people, objects and things…you are ready for Self Acceptance.

Within these Discourses, Gregory helps you understand how to find the Love you seek from within yourself. He is playful and very direct. These CDs are for the Courageous.
