Your own Self-Realization is the greatest service you can render the world.

Ramana Maharshi

The informal gatherings of the Eaton Satsang are intended to provide an opportunity to connect with one’s deepest inner nature. In ancient sanskrit sat means truth, and sang represents the sangha, or community, so taken together satsang is a coming together of friends rooted in a mutually supportive environment to discover and sit with the truth of one’s own being.

The Eaton Satsang has formed from the invitation, love and encouragement of Pamela Wilson, a teacher in the Advaita Vedanta tradition often associated with the renowned Indian sage Ramana Maharshi. The meetings are held in the home of Kathy and Dick Stewart in Eaton, New Hampshire, just 2 1/2 miles from the Maine border. Dick has been requested by Pamela to organize these gatherings in support of the evolution of consciousness.

Everyone is welcome!. Although we draw inspiration from many spiritual traditions, we are confined by none, and we have been influenced by the essence of many teachings including Advaita Vedanta, Zen, Sufism and Christianity, as well as numerous contemporary teachers, most notably Hameed Ali, Llewellyn Vaughan-Lee, Adyashanti, Eckhart Tolle, Gangaji, and Byron Katie.

In our meetings we explore and surrender to our natural depth through stillness, meditative inquiry and dialogue. We allow for life to unfold through present-moment awareness and a more authentic connection with others. No experience or beliefs are required, only a willingness to look afresh.

As one friend states, this is a “Circle of Love that some people may view as spiritual. Others may see nothing spiritual in it. Still others may find themselves unable to comprehend any distinction between spiritual and nonspiritual. All are welcome.”
