Cynthia writes about the loving inner awareness that silently sees that there is no "other." When there is no other, there is compassion for all and everything. Life is seen through a very different lens and we uncover the beauty of our own intrinsic wholeness. Drawing from the world's great wisdom teachings and her own insights, she presents a new way of listening and seeing that arises in stillness. Why does this matter? Because a truly quiet mind is not in conflict with itself. This is the direct path to a self-understanding, and a peaceful mind and heart.

Her work is shaped by an immersive study of non-duality teachings, and by J. Krishnamurti, G.I. Gurdjieff, Ramana Maharshi, Dōgen Zenji and Christian and Sufi mystics, such as Hildegard ...more

Cynthia answered Goodreads's question: How do you deal with writer’s block? When the creative "muse" seems distant, it's a signal to me to take a break. What helps a lot is to walk in the woods or on the beach; to commune with nature. This helps in so many ways. And it refreshes the spirit.

Quotes by Cynthia Overweg (?)

“How do you see the world? Is there an actual relationship between you and what you see? To see with silent inner awareness is to see our true relationship with each other and with the natural world. The essence of that relationship, in the deepest part of our being, is love.”

“Throughout human history the direct experience of transcendent awareness in the beauty of nature has been central to spiritual awakening. The Buddha awakened after a long meditation under a Bodhi tree; the Christ was spiritually tested for forty days in the emptiness of the desert; and the prophet Elijah, after running in fear for his life, stood quietly on the holy mountain of Mount Sinai and heard the whisper of the “still small voice” of God. The wilderness has always been a place for self-transformation.”
