An Authoritative Introduction to Evolutionary Enlightenment
I just finished a new comprehensive article introducing the teachings of Evolutionary Enlightenment... March 11, 2010
After a wonderful and uplifting teaching trip to Mother India, last week I flew to Copenhagen and Amsterdam to give lectures and day retreats. What a change of context and culture in the blink of an eye (or a few hours in an airplane)!

I really am living in a new world. And it’s one I’ve been striving extremely hard to give birth to for over twenty years. March 23, 2009
I want to share an open secret with everyone: Spirit is definitely Higher. That might seem obvious at first, but I think we tend, more often than not, to overlook or just not see the profound implications of that simple truth… January 21, 2009
It’s been a little more than a year since I first laid out my vision for a new annual cycle of spiritual practice and development. Over the past couple of months, we’ve taken some big steps toward concretizing that vision... January 02, 2009
For most people, the beginning of New Year means a renewing of those commitments that we feel are the most important. But to me, every single day is that day! December 08, 2008

Many of you responded to my last post, “The Evolution of Our Value Spheres,” asking for more guidance…. April 06, 2008

The Universe Project
The evolution of consciousness and culture in action
I used to say many years ago that my life feels like an explosion in motion. And that continues to be the case, even more so, it seems, these days... November 07, 2007
I just did the unthinkable: held a weekend retreat for women only. Has a male teacher who’s crazy enough to call himself a guru in a post-postmodern context ever done such an audacious thing? Well, I did. And guess what? It was a smashing success. September 24, 2007
Revolution Retreat
Real development, in real time
Last weekend, I spent an intensely focused forty-eight-hour period with my most committed students from around the world on what we have come to call a “revolution retreat.” September 04, 2007
It’s All Too Much!

Overwhelming Gratitude
Reflections on the anniversary of meeting my guru
Sunday, March 25, was the twenty-first anniversary of my meeting with my guru, H.W.L. Poonja. That was the last day of my life as a seeker.... March 12, 2007
My Latest Hero…
Or “What Would Jack Do?”
I have something to confess: I just finished Season 5 of “24”… As of late, it’s become part of my late night meditation ritual and I must admit, Jack Bauer has slowly become one of my heroes.... February 15, 2007
Making Enlightenment Meaningful
The beginning of a new phase in my teachings...
My latest passion—what I not-so-humbly like to call the third significant phase in the evolution of my teaching—is what I have been referring to as the integral manifestation of enlightenment… January 16, 2007
Happy Endings
Personal reflections on sex, romance, and evolutionary idealism . . .
I’ve always only been interested in happy endings. The problem is, I’ve never been willing to compromise in order to get there! And happy endings in the romantic and sexual dimension of life are some of the hardest to come by . . . December 25, 2006
Something to Celebrate…
An unexpected experience of intersubjective Self-delight....
Walking up from my house to the Manor House that is home to EnlightenNext and the center of our worldwide community, I was immediately struck by and swept up into a current of celebratory spirit and ecstatic joy… November 20, 2006
Creating the Future, Together
Why my students and I are more inspired than ever before...
Exactly a year ago today, I made a public declaration of “Victory,” which I wrote about on my website. I’m very pleased to say that one year later, the new world that began to reveal itself so dramatically at that time is emerging in an even more exciting way. November 08, 2006
What Is Enlightenment Anyway?
Past, present, and future...and why my students will never get “enlightened.”
One question I was struck by in your comments on my “Declaration of Integrity” was: “Why haven’t any of your students evolved into an ‘enlightened state’ and been transformed, as were many other students, including yourself, when you were a disciple of Poonja?” It’s a big question, and a complex one indeed…

A Declaration of Integrity
An open letter from Andrew Cohen to his friends and foes
To initiate this new blog, I thought nothing could be more appropriate than to post the following piece I just finished writing, which says a lot of things I’ve been wanting to say for a very long time. Some may find it a little long, but if you hang in there I’m sure you’ll find it well worth the read.
