The same ground of being that reveals our shared nature also moves as a compassionate\, embodied response. In this view\, the crises of our time—including racism and systemic injustice—are not distractions from awakening but invitations to live it. We are in a moment of cultural reckoning about abuse and power. The Epstein files reveal the way power and abuse\, misogyny and racism\, have been part of the underlying structure of our society. Nondual teachings could be used to avoid these topics\, or to retreat from taking action. However\, they also have great potential to inform how we can skillfully interrupt harm and foster cultural change that benefits us all. It can be challenging to face the underlying patterns of domination that are active in our society now. And we have a precious opportunity to allow ourselves to be deeply moved\, to tend to our hearts\, and to engage in skillful action. In this event we’ll explore the resource of our true nature in discovering fresh\, creative responses to harm. We’ll invite us to come into a healthy relationship with power and accountability as an expression of nondual compassion. Together we’ll explore: How intercepting abuse is a natural human response—and what holds us back from this natural instinct.How “spiritual bypassing” keeps systems of domination intact and what we can do instead.Ways to recognize and use power consciously—whether in leadership\, family\, or community roles.How to act from integrity and our deepest knowing in the face of systemic and personal harm.SESSION DETAILSMEETING: ZOOMDATE: Sunday\, April 26\, 2026TIME: 9:00am-11:00am (Pacific Time) \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n EVENT INFORMATION\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Join us On Retreat here URL:https://mirandamacpherson.com/event/ajijic-2026/ LOCATION:Awakening Heart Sangha\, Calle Emiliano Zapata 3\, Ajijic\, Jalisco\, 45920\, Mexico CATEGORIES:Retreats,Workshop ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://mirandamacpherson.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/Copy-of-Friday-April-17-Evening-Workshop-FINDING-NATURAL-GREAT-PEACE-3.png ORGANIZER;CN="Joel Dolowich":MAILTO:joeldolowich@gmail.com END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20260426T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20260426T110000 DTSTAMP:20260411T050800 CREATED:20260405T160024Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260406T184119Z UID:10000092-1777194000-1777201200@mirandamacpherson.com SUMMARY:Engaged Nonduality: Power\, Abuse and Spiritual Bypassing DESCRIPTION:  Miranda Macpherson & Lisa Ferguson Engaged Nonduality: Power\, Abuse and Spiritual Bypassing  Let’s Talk about Power\, Abuse and Spiritual Bypassing:How Spirituality Can Help Us Address Harm and Create Change  An Engaged Nonduality EventWith Miranda Macpherson and Lisa Ferguson Engaged Nonduality recognizes that awareness and response are not separate.
