About the teacher
Wayne Liquorman
Wayne Liquorman met Ramesh Balsekar in 1987 and describes an "impersonal" awakening in April 1989; Ramesh, who came to call him his "spiritual son," asked him to begin teaching publicly in 1996. He first published under the pen name Ram Tzu and has since written several books, including Acceptance of What IS and The Way of Powerlessness: Advaita and the 12 Steps of Recovery, and edited a number of Ramesh Balsekar's own books.
He continues to teach through the Advaita Fellowship, with talks and retreats scheduled through 2026, including stops in Barcelona, Bern and a week-long retreat in Crete.
“We gather together in this Teaching, not because the truth can be known, but because the truth is inescapable.”Wayne Liquorman
