In May 2022 I spent a few days with a spiritual exemplar by the name of Vigdis Garbarek and some of her student-friends in Oslo. I first interviewed Vigdis at the beginning of 2021 for my research on Living Tanscendence. We became friends, met about a dozen times by Zoom and she invited me to visit her in Oslo. In Oslo I hired a local cinematographer, Jon Marius Nilsson, who filmed the interviews with Vigdis and two of her closest student-friends: senior Aikido teacher Bjørn Eirik Olsen,and one of the leading mindfulness teachers in Norway, Viggo Johansen. From the many hours of filming, Jon Marius and I compiled some excerpts into a nine-minute video clip. It starts with the very first Zoom call I had with Vigdis and continues with interviews I had with Bjørn and Viggo.

In this interview we discuss the circumstances of Anne’s awakening, and the factors that made the breakthrough possible, as well as exploring further the various paradoxes of Enlightenment. This includes a discussion on integrity, honesty and the need for an inner alignment with Truth. We speak about evolution beyond awakening and what it means to have both a deeply human as well as a cosmic or universal perspective on life. https://endofseeking.purepresenceconferences.com/?ac=9hiztkmv
