	From Fixation to Freedom–The Enneagram of Liberation The Enneagram has appeared in our time as an illusory medicine to cure an imaginary disease. The disease is the egoic idea of separation from God, from one’s true source. The cure is to look into the wisdom mirror of the Enneagram to see past all false identifications to the truth of being. Eli presents a radically new model of the ego and the psyche.Bringing together his background in Buddhism with the Sufi work on essence, he presents a fresh approach to awakening by using the Enneagram’s nine fixated structures of ego to clearly describe who you are not. You will see how habits of egoic identification continuously appear to veil the pure, pristine consciousness that you truly are. When these habits of mind are exposed, there is a clear choice to end the bondage of ego-based suffering and to realize the vast, inherent freedom of one’s true nature. "Eli's profound teaching of the Enneagram is a support for true self-investigation. His model of the ego is useful for all seekers after truth. He shows the traps of mind and the possibility of waking up from the trance of suffering." - Gangaji "The Enneagram of Liberation is aptly named. Eli Jaxon-Bear has written a warm, engrossing book on the process of seeing through the veils. Readers sincerely seeking to use the Enneagram as part of their spiritual journey will be well-served by the wit and wisdom on these pages." - Russ Hudson and Don Richard Riso, authors of The Wisdom of the Enneagram. $14.00

	from Fixation to Freedom - CD Set In 12 entertaining lectures, and with the help of men and women sharing examples from their own lives, Jaxon-Bear guides you through the 9 points of the Enneagram, examining the fixations that are unique to each one of them, their relationships with each other, and how they offer a way from fixation to freedom. While sharing the same title as Eli's book, this 8 CD set is a unique offering. $69.95

	Self Realization and The Enneagram In DVD has these three compelling discourses, Eli Jaxon-Bear offers fresh insight into . . . SELF: Seeing through the illusion of separation and suffering that has been veiling your true nature – which is boundless, unchanging awareness, emptiness, and love. REALIZATION: Knowing the truth directly, from your own experience – without doubt, belief, or question. ENNEAGRAM: Looking into this ancient wisdom mirror to see how you have falsely identified yourself with automatic, habitual patterns. Once seen, the patterns can be dropped. This discourse does not explain the Enneagram in depth, but offers Eli's unique perspective on the use of the Enneagram to see beyond fixation. It is a recommended supplement to any Enneagram material. DVD $19.00 Note: Our DVDs are in North American (NTSC) format.

	Living Freedom - Meeting with Eli and Gangaji All over the world, people are imprisoned—behind walls of cement and steel, within political borders patrolled by armed guards, and within rigidly enforced systems of fundamentalist belief. It is possible to wake up to the truth of oneself even under these conditions. However, those of us who are privileged to be living in relative freedom at this time—imprisoned only by mental concepts and conditioning—have a precious opportunity to discover within ourselves, in relative safety, what is truly and always free. In this meeting, Eli and Gangaji offer an invitation to walk through this open door, to examine our most essential assumptions of what is real and what is illusion, and to begin living each moment in accord with our true nature, in unconditional freedom.

	Space for it All - Meeting with Eli and Gangaji In this meeting, Gangaji and Eli invite us to directly experience everything that arises in each moment, internally or externally—without judging it or naming it, without grasping or avoiding it, without projecting our past experience onto it. As we become aware of the conditioned survival strategies of the mind and the body, we can choose where to place our attention. Free of the mistaken identity with the narrow confines of the body’s drives and the mind’s constructs, we can welcome everything into the vastness of the all-inclusive heart of being.

	Truth of Your Nature - Meeting with Eli In this meeting, Eli delivers a message that may come as a surprise. If you're trying to attain a peaceful state, you're gong in the wrong direction. If we genuinely want to discover our true nature, we must be willing to face whatever is true, whatever is here, even if it is painful or terrifying. When we settle for soothing spiritual stories or concepts, we end up in a "holding pattern"—with our attention focused on feeling calm, rather than on being free.

	Chasing the Smoke - Missing the Fire "We are here for only one reason—liberation. Everything else is really beside the point." For many People in the spirutal community, moments of awakening seem conditional, depending on what is being experienced. The most profound insights, the deepest awakenings, seem to disappear as the personal 'story' reappears in the foreground: My name, my body, my job, my emotions, my relationships, my past and future... The tendency is to remember the feeling state that accompanied the awakening , and seek to regain it. But these states are all byproducts, and shasing them is a form of self-deception, "It's like chasing the smoke and missing the fire." Freedom is our true nature, regardless of experience or circumstance. The possiblity is for that to be realized, directly. For those who have realised this, Eli exposes the subtle traps that then ofen arise. DVD $19.00 Note: Our DVDs are in North American (NTSC) format.

	Staying True - Meeting with Eli "The heart has to find what’s true by making mistakes, by going in the wrong direction. Depending on your intention, everything is useful or everything is poison. You have to know what your intention is, and be true to it. Then, you realise that you already are what you’re searching for. The search ends. Suffering ends." – Eli Whatever we are paying attention to is what we are giving our life to. If we are paying attention to the thoughts that make up our personal story, we are serving the ego. It doesn’t matter whether the thoughts are of a “someone” who is happy or sad, healthy or sick, enlightened or unenlightened, doing a good job or a terrible job. In this meeting, Eli invites us to wake up to who we really are — formless, timeless, silent, intelligent love — and to stay true by giving our attention, and therefore our life, to that.

	Seeds of Awakening - Meeting with Eli In this meeting, Eli uses the metaphor of a farmer sharing seeds to illustrate the transmission received in satsang from a spiritual teacher. For these seeds to bear the fruit of freedom, they must be cultivated: “Nothing more is needed than to be true to yourself as silence. Silence is the opportunity for divine intervention, and is the divine intervention itself.” All that has come before, every life with its set of circumstances, becomes “compost” as the entire genetic conditioning of all lifetimes is faced without moving into thought. In the heat that is generated, your true nature — beyond the story of a personal identity — is nurtured. DVD $19.00 Note: Our DVDs are in North American (NTSC) format.
