Insight Sessions

A martial arts student approached his teacher with a question. “I’d like to improve my knowledge of martial arts. So in addition to learning from you, I’d like to study under another teacher in order to learn another style. What do you think of this idea?”
“The hunter who chases two rabbits,” answered the master, “catches neither.”
Focus is not only your ability to remain attracted to the ‘One’…but also the discipline to avoid the distraction of the other ninety-nine.

I offer a very unique way of approaching a spiritual practice. Counseling/Insight Sessions can be very helpful and essential to sustaining the practice of the Spirit. There are many inner demands made on those who seek a deeper Path. You will be faced with the surrender of ego, pride, fear, anger and hate. All of these take various forms in the human being. Learning how to Live with those that cannot be changed right now, and those that can be released, is the art of Inner work. I can help you with all of this.

I seek to help students understand how a relationship with Love can build relationships with Life in this world. I will help you with your Meditations and the practice of Love in relationship. I will offer you Inner assignments to work on as well as journal work. I value art work and often have my students draw and paint pictures of their Inner experiences.

Counseling/Insight Sessions are available in two types:

THE PATH

Gregory E. Penn, DD
Swami Chaitanya Siraj

  • "One of the most precious resources of life is the opportunity to have Gregory (Siraj) as my teacher/spiritual counselor. He sees me anew each session. We can and do dialogue about human foibles and paths forward, yet I always know he is seeing who I truly am and is gently coaxing that to manifest."

    Alfrieda, California

  • "My weekly sessions with Siraj have helped me to see those aspects of myself that keep me in fear and anger...those aspects I, at times, cherish. And yet he shows me such mercy and grace that I am humbled and blessed. These sessions are a guide on the path to Love."

    Carol, California

  • "Insight sessions with Gregory both via telephone and in person have been essential to my spiritual practice, helping me move beyond the distractions and obstacles that convoluted mind and emotion create and guiding me back to the middle Way, the Heart of living. The patience and compassion shown during sessions with Gregory is unlike any I have ever experienced before and I deeply cherish the insights it cultivates.”

    Wendy, California

  • I enjoy sessions with Gregory first thing every Friday morning. It is a way for me to keep an eye on my inner self. Greg gives me the opportunity to see how I view my own state of being with compassion and forgiveness in my life. Every one needs a teacher to show the path. I am honored to have Gregory guide me along my journey.

    Pat, California

  • I find that having a weekly session scheduled keeps me focused on my practice during the week so that I am prepared for my one on one time with Greg. He guides me and presents questions that challenge my human beliefs and pretense. In all he does, Greg bestows encouragement, inspiration and wisdom.

    Nancy, California

  • More than anything else, it is doing session with Greg that keeps me on the path. In his wisdom and kindness he always seems to know just what direction to take.

    Paula, California

  • Insight sessions with Gregory teach me to see the futility of my behaviors and to accept everything as a chance to transform and see the bigger picture of my life. Gregory is patient, kind and compassionate - he sees the intrinsic goodness in me even when I can not.

    Mary, California

  • It was only thru weekly Insight Sessions with Gregory that I began to realize how I have lived my life in judgement and selfishness. Because of this, I have been able to begin living a life in mercy by truly beginning to give and forgive. Thank you Gregory for your patience.
