Christofer and meditation coach Charlie Awbery speak about Vajrayana in this episode of Do Explain. They discuss Charlie's early awakening experience, the importance of view in meditation, Tantra and Dzogchen, experiential sameness, renunciation vs. engagement, self-love, no self, the "should" of being more mindful, the possibility of stabilizing Rigpa, Evolving Ground, Ultraspeaking, silence as a superpower, and other related topics.

Charlie Awbery is a British born Vajrayana meditation coach, living in the US. They have a ton of experience in traditional Vajrayana - decades of practice, retreats, and application in ordinary life - that they bring to their coaching and teaching for contemporary practitioners uninterested in the cultural baggage associated with traditional contexts. They work with nerdy high-achievers, tech and finance industry professionals dedicated to understanding their minds, people who want to lead their best, most productive and beneficial lives.

They co-founded Evolving Ground, a community for contemporary Vajrayana practitioners, where they lead group practices, discussions, gatherings, and retreats.
