• Ample advance notice before the course concludes
• Sufficient time to complete the video sessions
• The ability to download the audio and PDF files

Course Highlights

• Experience the daily flow of a Wisdom School: from morning chants, teaching, and work periods, to rest and reflection times, culminating in the Great Silence to end each day and begin the next
• Explore key Wisdom teachings through Cynthia’s lively, compelling, and engaging lectures
• Connect with an ancient lineage that flows from two streams of Wisdom: the Benedictine monastic tradition and the practical training in mindfulness and non-identification found in Gurdjieff’s Work.

Limited Availability

With the generous blessing of the Center for Action and Contemplation, this course, originally filmed at Kanuga Conference Center in 2015, is temporarily available while the CAC makes major revisions to its online learning platform and course formatting. NOTE: Tuition covers access to the course only until the CAC relaunches it sometime early in 2026. At that time, we will remove access to the course on this site. We hope you’ll join us during this special window of time to engage with these timeless teachings.

Tuition: $165
