About
Rupert Spira is a British ceramic artist and teacher of the Direct Path, a contemporary approach to non-dual understanding rooted in Advaita Vedanta and the teachings of his guru, Francis Lucille. His teaching emphasizes the exploration of the nature of experience, inviting students to investigate the aware presence that underlies all perception. He is the author of several books including 'The Nature of Consciousness' and 'Being Aware of Being Aware.' Spira's approach is gentle, precise, and deeply experiential, drawing on both Eastern philosophy and Western contemplative traditions.
