A Travelling Lighter

Katrijn (Kat) van Oudheusden is a writer and speaker exploring non-duality through direct inquiry and its implications for how we live and lead. Author of Seeing No-Self, her work asks what leadership might look like when it is no longer organised around the assumption of a separate self. In this conversation, we explore no-self, agency and responsibility, and whether non-dual understanding can fundamentally change our relationship with power, organisations and one another.

Loch Kelly, Mdiv, LCSW is the creator of the Mindful Glimpse app, an award-winning author, meditation teacher, licensed psychotherapist, and founder of the nonprofit Effortless Mindfulness Institute.

His work brings together ancient wisdom traditions, neuroscience, and contemporary psychology to help people access what he calls “effortless mindfulness,” a more spacious, compassionate awareness that can relieve suffering at its root.

For more than 30 years, Loch has trained with meditation teachers around the world, studied nondual practices in Sri Lanka, India, and Nepal, and collaborated with neuroscientists at Yale, UPenn, and NYU to explore how awareness training can support compassion and wellbeing.

Vishrant is a contemporary non-duality and “higher consciousness” teacher based in Perth, Western Australia. His teaching combines Advaita-style self-inquiry with what he calls the “Way of the Heart”: openness, surrender, self-acceptance and the dismantling of egoic belief systems. A former successful businessman and Osho disciple, he presents awakening as a practical undoing of the mind rather than a philosophical idea, offering satsangs, retreats, online courses and books such as Freedom From the Mind and The Way of the Heart.

Amara Palmer is a US-based non-duality-oriented spiritual counselor and facilitator whose work integrates direct inquiry with somatic, sound, and altered-state practices. Her approach centres on supporting awakening as a lived, embodied process—“a deconstruction” of conditioned identity into a recognition of one’s true nature—while also emphasising integration of trauma, shadow material, and spiritual experiences. Drawing on modalities such as Depth Hypnosis, sound healing, and nondual “pointing,” she creates relational and group spaces (e.g. Alchemy Circles) where participants are invited to “welcome what is” and dissolve the felt sense of separation into a more spacious awareness.

Ananta Kranti is an internationally active non-duality teacher and facilitator whose work blends direct self-inquiry with a strong emphasis on psychological integration. Her approach centres on guiding individuals toward immediate self-recognition—seeing through ego identification—while also engaging deeply with unresolved trauma and conditioned patterns in the body-mind. Having taught for over two decades, she offers retreats, satsangs, and ongoing group containers aimed not just at awakening, but at embodying and stabilising that realisation in everyday life. Her teaching stands out for its refusal of “spiritual bypassing,” insisting that true freedom includes meeting and integrating all aspects of lived experience rather than transcending them.

Francis Lucille is a French-born teacher in the Advaita Vedanta tradition whose work presents non-duality not as a belief system but as a direct recognition of awareness as our true nature. His teaching is strongly shaped by Jean Klein, with whom he studied for many years, and it is distinctive for the way it brings philosophical clarity into conversation with art, music and science.

Simply This

Jim Newman has become one of the most widely followed voices in contemporary non-duality, with a rapidly growing global audience drawn through YouTube talks, podcasts, and live meetings. His popularity stems from the stark clarity and consistency of his message, which cuts through the increasingly crowded spiritual marketplace by offering no techniques, promises, or self-improvement narrative. In an era saturated with wellness strategies and incremental paths to awakening, Newman’s refusal to accommodate the seeker paradoxically resonates, particularly with those disillusioned by spiritual effort. What attracts such sustained attention is not charisma or reassurance, but the directness of a message that leaves nothing to hold onto—an approach that many report as confronting, destabilising, and unmistakably compelling.

Kenneth Madden communicates non-duality with uncompromised clarity. In this conversation we unpack the totally irrelevant story of awakening on a Vipassana retreat, working in the role of a social worker and the difficult to hear news that this cannot be known.
