The Ten Stages seeks a solution that moves us beyond our "painful inner dialogue." and out into the clear blue waters of an awakened recovery.

In our process of the Ten Stages we attempt to awaken to our original enlightened nature which involves interrupting the ordinary flow of linear, language-based, thinking so that we can rediscover "the mind within the mind".


Focusing on external circumstances or teachings is not what triggers the moment of spiritual awakening, in other words. Rather, it is focusing on the absence of internal commentary. Because it is impossible to "think" without words, this practice of stopping the flow of running commentary on our lives involves cultivating a mindset of no-thought in an attempt to experience each moment as it is without silently talking to ourselves about it.

Attempting to gain the mind without the internal voice means starting to deal with the origins of the voice and the trauma it still holds and regurgitates at any pressure to reveal its inner secrets.In the ten stages a dialogue is instituted with the inner voice through the experience of others, and it works, how it works finally it has the potential for us to gain our complete freedom.
