Andrew Cohen explores the apparently paradoxical relationship between the development of a strong and healthy ego, and the ability to flourish in the context of a teaching which is rooted in ego transcendence. Jack Engler’s famous quote resonates now more powerfully than ever, and holds a deceptively simple but valuable insight for all those who aspire to progress on a serious spiritual path.
Andrew Cohen explores the complexities of love, sex and romance in the integral age, through the lens of Evolutionary Enlightenment.
Andrew Cohen explores the meaning of the metacrisis, and invites us to look at our capacity to embrace the unfathomable scale of what we face as a species. How can we find and express a deep source of spiritual strength to meet this challenge, and inspire others to do the same?
Andrew Cohen discusses the perennial mystery of nonduality and places it in an evolutionary context, taking us on a journey into the deepest valleys and highest peaks of the most primordial of all truths.
New Beginnings: when we awaken to enlightened awareness in a way that is deep and profound we find ourselves grounded in the knowledge that from an Absolute vantage point, every moment is a new beginning, radiating with the presence of eternity.
In this provocative talk, Andrew Cohen draws on more than three decades of experience as a teacher to contemplate the unreasonable nature of spirit. In a cultural context which seems less ready than ever to embrace authentic spirituality, how can we create the appropriate “set and setting” for an uncompromising and radical journey to self-transcendence?

Andrew Cohen looks at what it means to deeply honour the truth of enlightenment by moving beyond personal trauma, while still embracing the painful truth of our fragmented and imperfect human body-mind. How can these two apparently different selves peacefully co-exist?
If we want to mature in our spiritual practice, it’s profoundly important to stand courageously behind what we have realised, by letting go and by responding. Only then can we develop spiritual self-confidence, and allow ourselves to be transformed by our own deepest revelations about the nature of reality.
Andrew Cohen invites us to connect with the liberating and joyous impulse to fully engage with life, free from fear or limitation. With gentle guidance, it’s possible to discover a level of trust and surrender that immediately reveals the ecstatic energy and deep intelligence of our own authentic nature – the creative principle of the cosmos itself is alive within us as a latent potential, waiting to be unleashed.
