The body is already awake. The journey of enlightenment, teaches Reggie Ray, ultimately leads people beyond the limits of the “head space” and into the living wisdom of the very cells that make up their physical form. With The Practice of Pure Awareness: Somatic Meditation for Touching Infinity, Reggie shares what he sees as the essence of the Tibetan tantric tradition: allowing the depth and fullness of body-based or somatic intelligence to reveal itself.

Reginald A. Ray, PhD, is the cofounder and Spiritual Director of Dharma Ocean Foundation, dedicated to the evolution and flowering of the somatic teachings of Tibetan Tantra. He is a lineage holder in the tradition of Chögyam Trungpa, Rinpoche. Reggie is the author of several books including Touching Enlightenment. For more, visit dharmaocean.org.
