The Mystery School's 2025 yearlong Intensive Practice Program: Stabilizing in Cosmic Consciousness, is the most ambitious spiritual program that I have offered in the twenty plus years that I have been teaching.

The focus of this program is on the miraculous realization of cosmic consciousness, and you will not just experience this state of awareness, you will maintain access to it continuously enough to transform your life.

Cosmic consciousness is an expansive opening that widens your perception until it encompasses the entire universe. It reveals that we are inseparable from the universe. Our consciousness does not belong to us, it flows through us from a universal source. We are one with all of existence.

In 2025 I will be guiding a group of people through a prolonged experience of this miraculous state of being. We will do this by meeting together online via Zoom for 45 minutes every weekday for a full three quarters of the year. This consistency will allow us to open to cosmic consciousness, stabilize individually and collectively in it, and bring the power of that higher perspective to bear on our lives.

This is an ambitious program, but I know that many of you are ready to embrace this depth of transformation in your life.

My life has been entirely dedicated to spiritual life for over thirty years and I have been teaching for more than twenty of those. The experience of cosmic consciousness has been the most powerful realization of my life. It has shaped everything that I am and continues to inspire me every single day.

What you will discover in this program is that cosmic consciousness is not far away, in fact, it is right here all the time. Just beyond the familiar world all around you there is a mysterious expanse that extends beyond the bounds of time and space. Our experience of reality is a thin facade, a surface, that arises within an infinite sea of potential. Cosmic consciousness allows us to access that creative potential and unleash it in our own lives.

If this sounds exciting to you, please read the rest of this description and join me for this adventure in 2025.

Sincerely,

Consistency Not Intensity

If thirty years of dedicated spiritual work has shown me anything, it is that consistency of effort is much more important than intensity.

We live in a culture that glorifies intensity and speed. We work hard, play hard, live hard and expect immediate results from everything we do.

Effortful and intense spiritual practice allows you to have breakthrough experiences that reveal new potentials, but once you know something is possible that kind of effort won’t take you any further than repeated glimpses of what you already know.

If you want more than just repeated experiences of a higher possibility, you need to engage in sustained practice. The practice you do does not need to be intense, but it does need to be consistent.

If you feel called to pursue true spiritual transformation, and that means a complete shift into a new self and a new life, then there is very little value for you in new breakthroughs if you have not realized the potential of the possibilities you already know exist.

It is easy on the spiritual path to become overly concerned, and even obsessed, with having new and deeper spiritual experiences because of an erroneous assumption that these experiences will change you - they won’t.

If you want to transform, you must learn to rest in the higher states of awareness that you’ve already experienced until they become your new normal. As long as your peak spiritual realizations are anomalies to your normal state of being you will continue to fall back into your normal state only to start the process of seeking over again.

Cosmic consciousness can become your normal state of consciousness as long as you build enough momentum towards it. In this program, you will build that momentum by engaging in a series of contemplative studies that will inform and empower your daily practice.

Your practice will open a channel within your psyche that connects you to the highest states of awareness and the momentum you build will hold that channel open consistently throughout your daily experience.

The Program and the Commitment
— Daily Practice Sessions

The center of this program is the daily practice sessions held live with me via Zoom every weekday during 39 of the 52 weeks of 2025. The schedule has been roughly designed so that we meet for three weeks and have one week off each month. This schedule will give us the consistency we need while allowing enough flexibility to accommodate our lives.

Before you disqualify yourself from participating, it’s important to know that all of the sessions will be recorded and available to you throughout the year, so you can go back to and listen to any you missed or want to revisit. My experience is that there is just as much benefit to consistently listening to the recordings as there is to participating live.

These 45-minute daily sessions will generally consist of 20-minutes of guidance and instruction from me and 25 minutes of silent practice. I prefer to call the practice that we do attunements, rather than meditations, because we will be tuning into the energy of different experiential aspects of cosmic consciousness.

People have told me that offering this much engagement with people is not a strong selling point and I understand that some people will feel intimidated by this much practice. At the same time, this is what I know works, this is what will change your life. This is how the miracle of cosmic consciousness can be sustained and lived.

My commitment is that your participation in this program initiates a permanent change in your consciousness and your life.

— Three Interactive Workshops and an Online Forum

Our year of exploration also includes three 2-hour interactive workshops. The primary function of the workshops is to provide a space where you can ask any questions and receive any spiritual coaching you need, along with doing more practice together.

There will also be a private online forum where you can submit questions in writing at any time and receive a prompt reply from me.

— Monthly Study Guides and Individual Practice

In addition to the practice sessions and workshops with me you will be supported to start a daily practice of your own. This practice does not need to be longer than 30-minutes and the first month of the program will be used to support you to develop a practice schedule that suits your needs.

In support of your practice, each month you will receive a study guide to guide your contemplation and study throughout the year. The study guides will be focused on ten texts that have been prepared especially for this program. The guides will explain exactly which aspects of each text will be most helpful to attaining realization and why.

Developing a deeper understanding of spiritual principles is not the goal of this program, but it is an essential aspect of developing the penetrating clarity and strength of focus necessary to enter into fruitful spiritual practice.

Detailed instruction is an invaluable tool on the path of transformation because it allows you to work systematically through a series of shifts and breakthroughs that gradually release your true inner potentials. The study guides in this program will be organized according to monthly themes that build on everything that came before.

— Study Texts

I have essentially been preparing for the past four years when I began extensive research into cosmic consciousness. My explorations led to some deep realizations and inner shifts that have compelled me to create this program.

Over the past few years I have written and published, or edited and republished, a number of books that I feel offer essential perspectives on the pursuit of cosmic consciousness. Our exploration during this intensive practice program will be centered on the insightful wisdom contained in the books below.

You will receive ebook copies of each book, from which we will draw wisdom and insight. Please know that you are not expected to read any of the books in their entirety. This is a practice based program and you will get the full benefit of the program by wholeheartedly engaging with the practice. I wrote and/or edited these books to deepen my own understanding and to make them easily accessible to modern readers. You will receive all of the ebooks with your registration to use as we explore the experience of cosmic consciousness. The whole point of this study is to use the ideas and perspectives from the books to strengthen your practice.

We will spend the first month of the year exploring the power of personal practice and giving everyone the guidance they need to establish their own practice schedule for the year. After that we will explore the unique perspectives and insights presented in the different books you will receive. The last month of the year will be dedicated to bringing all of our explorations together into a comprehensive vision of the experience of cosmic consciousness and how it can be sustained and lived.

Monthly Themes
January: Establishing Our Practice for the Year
In January we will establish our daily practice schedule. This is an experiential course and the ultimate goal is for you to sustain the awareness of cosmic consciousness and transform your life. For this to be possible you will need to devote yourself to consistent spiritual practice. Each individual is unique and so we will design your individual practice around your own needs and constraints. During this month you will receive all of the detailed and personalized guidance you need to do that.

February: Following the Path to Cosmic Consciousness
In February we will set a foundation for the journey ahead by exploring my own deepest understanding of the spiritual path and the work required to attain a deep and abiding experience of cosmic consciousness. We will explore how focused practice and study can generate an atmosphere of awakened energy in your life that keeps the miracle of higher awareness ever-present in your awareness.
Primary Study Material: [Book] The Path of Cosmic Consciousness: A Practical Guide to Higher Dimensions of Reality by Jeff Carreira
March: Traveling through Higher Dimensions of Reality
In March we will examine the profound teachings of the great Indian sage Sri Aurobindo whose work was a big influence on my own. We will explore how the path to cosmic consciousness inevitably takes us through invisible realms of the inner world that can only be navigated through the cultivation of unusual sensitivities. During this month you will develop the power of mystical vision necessary for the journey.

April: Transforming into a Cosmic Self
In April we will explore the nature of our sense of self and how our current identity can be transformed in profound ways that leave us feeling like a new person. We will work with the profound psychological vision initially developed by William James and expand on that in order to engage with a process of transformation that will shift our own identity into our true self as a universal being.
Primary Study Material: [Book] The Psychology of Spiritual Transformation (Annotated) by William James (Edited with commentary by Jeff Carreira).
May: Entering Consciousness Without Thought
In May we will turn to the creator of the phrase cosmic consciousness, the English mystical poet Edward Carpenter. We will discover how Carpenter saw the experience of pure awareness, or consciousness without thought, as not just a heightened state of human experience, but as the original mind of the universe itself. Our practice this month will bring us into contact with the mystery of thoughtless awareness.

June: Opening to Spiritual Transmission
In June we will explore the mysterious power of words, either written or spoken, to carry the energy of profound and otherwise inexpressible spiritual realities. By exploring some of the poetry of Walt Whitman that inspired the creators of cosmic consciousness, we will learn how to open to the energetic transmission of words and how to infuse our own words with the energy of our own deepest realization.
Primary Study Material: [Book] Poems by Walt Whitman (Annotated): The Poems that Inspired Cosmic Consciousness by Walt Whitman (Introduction by Jeff Carreira).
July: Discovering and Refining Our Mystical Vision
In July we will explore the spiritual vision that Edward Carpenter expressed in his own highly transmissive epic poem years before he traveled to India and studied Hinduism. The work we do in this month will allow us to use an appreciation of Carpenter’s vision to connect us with our own deepest vision for a perfected human state and to discover how to express that vision with a power and clarity that inspires us and those around us.
Primary Study Material: [Book] Towards Democracy (Annotated): Poems of Cosmic Consciousness by Edward Carpenter (Introduction by Jeff Carreira).
August: Embracing The Evolutionary Potential of Cosmic Consciousness
In August we will explore the evolutionary vision of Richard Maurice Bucke, the other original creator of the idea of cosmic consciousness. We will discover that cosmic consciousness is not limited to personal experience or even individual transformation; it may well be the evolutionary destiny of the entire human race. Our focus will be on placing our own quest in a vast context that empowers our practice far beyond any personal motive could.

September: Perceiving Higher Dimensional Realities
In September we will expand our understanding of what it means to live in a multidimensional reality. The practices and contemplations we engage with will expand our perception into realms of existence beyond the three dimensions of space and time that we are familiar with. We will see how accepting the existence of higher dimensions profoundly enhances our ability to move into higher awareness and connect with the cosmic aspects of our being.
Primary Study Material: [Book] Flatland (Annotated): A Romance of Many Dimensions by Edwin A. Abbott (Introduction and notes by Jeff Carreira).
October: The Immediate Realization of Cosmic Consciousness
In October our attention turns to the great Russian mystic P.D. Ousepensky and his feeling that if we over-glorify the evolutionary potential of the exalted state of cosmic consciousness we overlook the all-important fact that this is our potential, now, for this lifetime. Our exploration this month will be aimed at deepening our own practice and sharpening our focus on the possibility of the immediate realization of cosmic consciousness.

November: Attaining Spiritual Liberation
In November we will explore a book written by a Hindu practitioner that will connect us back to the esoteric tradition of India. Dr. Nanjundra Row reminds us that Edward Carpenter developed the phrase in connection with an Eastern notion of enlightenment and the necessity of spiritual freedom. Our practice this month will focus on attaining a true inner freedom that releases us from the attachments and constraints that keep us trapped in the habitual identity of the small self.
Primary Study Material: [Book] Cosmic Consciousness or the Vedantic Idea of Realisation or Mukti (Annotated) by M.C. Nanjundra Row (Introduction by Jeff Carreira).
December: Living a Cosmically Open Life
In December we will explore how to live a multidimensional life that allows us consistent access to the higher dimensions of our being while remaining fully embodied on Earth. We will complete the work of releasing perceptual limitations and open to the full range of our inner sensibilities. The work we do in this month will establish a new basis for your life that will allow you to live as a cosmically aware person with consistent access to the highest aspects of your true self.

[Public Program] The Path of Spiritual Breakthrough
A 6-Week Self-Paced Journey of Awakening to Cosmic Awareness

This self-paced program, delivered by audio recording, is about how devoted seekers of awakening can follow the path of their own realizations to ultimate fulfillment. Over the course of six weeks, you will explore the power and meaning of spiritual experience.

There is no map for that territory. No one knows how your path is meant to unfold, but you can discover it, if you listen without preference or prejudice and courageously follow the path that appears in front of you.This program is all about the adventure of fulfillment.

In a sense, no one can guide you through this journey, but what I will do is give you the most important insights that my decades of devoted spiritual work have blessed me with. These insights have been organized and articulated to offer a set of tools and perspectives that can guide you beyond what you might ever have imagined possible.

In this practice rich program, you will explore the nature of breakthrough experiences and the path to radical wholeness they reveal, by learning to decode the secrets of your innermost realizations.

Spiritual growth is as natural as any other kind of growth when we follow the path of authentic inner guidance. Each next revelation opens a new door, revealing another higher dimension of reality. The path accelerates as your surrender deepens and you ecstatically freefall through successive stages of realization.
