Radiant Mind: Awakening Unconditional Awareness – PETER FENNER, PH.D.

PETER FENNER, PH.D. Peter is a leader in the Western adaptation of Buddhist wisdom.  He is a pioneer in the new field of nondual psychotherapy.  He was a celibate monk in the Tibetan Buddhist traditions for 9 years.  He has a PhD in the philosophical psychology of Mahayana Buddhism and has held teaching positions at universities in Australia and the USA.  He teaches the Radiant Mind Course internationally and in 2009 will offer a 9 month Nondual Teacher Training. His latest books include Radiant Mind:  Awakening Unconditional Awareness (2007); The Edge of Certainty: Dilemmas on the Buddhist Path (2002); The Sacred Mirror:  Nondual Wisdom and Psychotherapy (ed. with John Prendergast and Sheila Krystal, 2003).

The institutes at which he has taught workshops include Naropa University, the California Institute for Integral Studies, and Omega Institute.  Peter has also given invited presentations at JFK University, Saybrook College, Stanford Medical School, Columbia University, and at other locations internationally. Peter’s way of teaching nondual therapy is known for its dynamic and engaging deconstruction of all fixed frames of reference that block entry to unconditioned awareness, and for the purity and depth of natural, uncontrived silence that emerges in his work.  His work is profiled on http://www.radiantmind.net/ and http://www.nondualtraining.com/
