About Us

International Self-Awareness Day

A new "World Day" for celebrating every day of the year.

Purpose: To publish basic information on personal growth and self-discovery, based on studies and personal experiences, starting November 2015 with a commitment to continue throughout 2016. Note: Edward Wells has kept going in 2017, because this is a useful expercise for him, and may shed light on a particular individual's strivings to go beyond the framework of the "conditioned mind".

Suggestion: We start out slowly, with basic concepts and explanations, under "Articles" and "Diaries". It's something like a course in Self-Awareness, so it is recommendable to start reading from the first posts and follow us over time. Please do not hesitate to ask questions or make comments.

Schedule: We publish 3 times a week minimum (Mon-Weds-Fri, 12:00 hrs GMT+1 Madrid-Paris time), and answer questions and comments once a week.

Organisation: Non-profit. This is charity work and interrelationship work, because we want to share experiences and gain experience by sharing.

Members: Edward, a student of the mind, involved in the search for himself. He has read a lot about spiritual development and awakening, but has only recently found a way to actually DO something about it. He runs the blog with help from: Guru Nanda, a joyful person on the way to complete “realization” who occasionally gives some succinct advice, but mostly just listens and smiles and does charity work. Ximena, a Spanish student of happy living, basically “down-to-earth”, but so compassionate and caring that one sometimes wonders whether she is more “spiritual” than “earthy”, as she describes herself. Friends and collaborators, who are always welcome.
