Harri’s descriptions soar from the mundane to the sublime and explain the intimate details, understanding, and experience of the awakened state in an entirely fresh way. He shows us how this life of ours can be naturally transformed into the delightful liveliness of expanded consciousness even within the activity of daily life.

Harri has worked as a fine artist/designer, a businessman, and a meditation teacher for his whole life. Throughout these very busy years, his experiences of refined states of consciousness and perception have expanded greatly.

He shares his insights in his book, The Landscape of Enlightenment: With Doors and Windows to Our World, which includes his amazing life story from early childhood to the present with very personal, simple stories, works of art and inspired understanding that will uplift your awareness and stir the onset awakening.

Recent note from Harri:

Discussion Group Invitation

I've been hosting consciousness discussion groups for several years and invite you to join. Learn more on my Facebook or website.

These groups uniquely blend people experiencing realized states with seekers at various stages, accelerating everyone's growth. I've observed that simply discussing these experiences creates immediate positive shifts in participants' awareness.

What makes our groups effective is the multi-perspective discussions that foster rich exchanges between participants.

Participant Feedback:

"The discussions have gradually opened me into both a felt sense and ever-deepening understanding of the eternal oneness." —RL

"I feel more awake, alive and curious... increased power and stability in my Presence." —JB

"I now appreciate that self-realization is not only natural and simple, but I have had this experience for quite some time and just didn't know it." —WH

"I have recognized that I am in this surrounding love all the time in various degrees of clarity." —LVT

"My primary insight was that I, and many seekers, have already realized the experience of the Self without being aware of it." —ATL
