"Awakening is waking up from the daytime dream and realizing that who you thought you were is not limited to thought, emotion or form. Beyond the imaginary seeker; beyond concepts and beliefs, there is a field of innocence and purity. We are this deep peace and sacredness, which is absolute and beyond all intellectual understanding. I invite you to recognize this precious Essence of Being and to directly realize the illusion of all psychological suffering due to misidentification, misperception of separation, and attachment to conditioned thought." ~ Katie Davis, Author, Awake Joy
Katie Davis, Author of "Awake Joy," Biography and Spontaneous Awakening
Formerly from Seattle, Washington, Katie Davis offers Awake Joy talks, in Advaita satsang wherever invited. In 1986, she had a radical and spontaneous awakening without teachers or spiritual practices. She spent many years integrating that spiritual realization and began teaching in 1999.
Katie Davis is author of Awake Joy: The Essence of Enlightenment and her husband is Sundance Burke, author of Free Spirit: A Guide to Enlightened Being, who awakened in 1982 before their meeting with his first teachers, Satoshi (Osho) and Shunyata, named the Rare Born Mystic by his friend, Ramana Maharshi. Sundance and Katie travel worldwide offering their message of conscious freedom and causeless joy.
In 2004, Sundance and Katie moved to the island of Maui to write. Encouraged by Eckhart Tolle, their books were intimately written with their desks side by side and the expanse of the Pacific Ocean before them. Awake Joy by Katie Davis and Free Spirit by Sundance Burke published in February 2008.
