ABOUT US

Andy Schraegle, Ph.D.
Growing up, a burning desire to seek truth took hold. After years of searching through spirituality and neuroscience, the need to see reality overtook the need to avoid suffering. Through the marriage of forgiveness and surrender, realization unfolded in ways that could never have been imagined by my former self.
After seeing through the illusion of separation, there is now a keen interest in exploring the mystery of reality and the human form as a man, son, friend, brother, father, husband, and professional. The stage of integrating this non-dual experience into daily life is ongoing and beautiful, and something I return to daily. Not just to help myself, but to look for ways to alleviate suffering for anyone who is interested.

I am glad you are here.

​It is a gift have you visiting.
​​​​​​
As a child, big questions appeared, such as, "Why can't I remember where I came from before being born?" And, "How come we don't always see each other's hearts?" As a child I did not language it this way, quiet questions in my heart are a form of the age old question: "Why, between the joy of living, do we appear to sometimes suffer and harm (be unkind) to ourselves and/or others?" " What is this veil in the mind that leads to, at times, feeling separate from rather than unity, community, with all." Spiritual experiences confirmed and continue to confirm that there is far more going on that meets the eyes, and all our senses. (While very helpful, I somehow knew that spiritual experiences don't last, so they are not full awakening from suffering to our true identity.)
​​
Over the years, the Divine has provided extraordinarily helpful guidance and pointings to support awakening.* I discovered that human word languages are wonderful and do their best to represent what is true and what is not true, yet real, direct experienced of the Infinite Love of God/Holiness (reality) is far beyond words. It is breathtakingly astoundingly nourishing. It is immaculate beauty beyond description. (Thought, poets do an extraordinary joy job of it!)
​​
The Divine has been coaching me all along to let go of trying to avoid...trying to move away from...difficult feeling-experiences (energy distortion), and rather to enfold them and myself into the Divine Love that we are immersed within. The distortion (suffering feeling experiences) are then quietly dissolved by the Comforter. Remembering ​I am never alone, the Divine is here now all around and permeating this thing called "body" and also the mind (thoughts/beliefs/perceptions/ emotions/sensations/sounds and the whole world. Resting into the Divine right now is astoundingly revealing and healing. (We all know the pointing, "Be still and know the [real] I AM [is] God.)
​​​
Life has been and continues to be the best revealer and teacher. Now, I continue to open into the spacious presence of the Divine and support others to rest into Divine Love to directly experience our true identity (our most natural essence. Less than peace-filled states are altered states that will dissolve as we rest into and receive the Love of the Divine that is here for us, along with Its quiet, helpful guidance.)
Supporting others to rest into the Divine Love that is our inheritance and here for us now, and to forgive ourselves...to not be hard on ourselves...when a forgetting (amnesia) of Divine Love's Presence happens is an honor beyond measure. Supporting offering ourselves enough quiet, open spaciousness to notice the Presence of Astounding Love is the gift of a lifetime.
Our worthiness is established by Divine Love. Our
value never changes no matter what we choose
to believe about ourselves, life and/or others.​​​​

Thank you for your being and for coming by.
