Private Sessions

One-on-One With Rick

The path to realization is one that can be helped by those who have walked and are walking it.

Are you ready for realization? Have you found yourself stuck, at a crossroads, not quite knowing what to do or where to go next? You’re in the right place. Welcome to my one-on-one sessions where we don’t just talk about the journey, but where we navigate it together in order for you to discover your own path.

What to Expect

In this space, there’s no room for fluff or vague spiritual jargon. We delve into the depth of your questions, getting to the heart of existence, getting to the real you. Whether you’re grappling with life’s challenges or changes, waking up to new horizons, questioning religion, seeking purpose, or trying to understand existence itself, we confront these matters head-on with practical insights and the experiential wisdom that has proven itself in my own path.

Qualifications

I’ve spent many years immersed in the realms of philosophy and spirituality, dissecting complex ideas and distilling them into practical wisdom. My journey has been one of self-discovery, exploring the depths of the mind, and understanding the intricate threads and waves of existence. Although I have a degree in Computer Information Systems, a Masters in Religious Studies, and have spent decades in deep study of religion, philosophy, ancient texts, and modern interpretations, this isn’t just about academic knowledge; it’s about lived experiences, awakening, realization, and a deep understanding of the human psyche. My insights are grounded in this comprehensive knowledge base, allowing me to offer nuanced perspectives and actionable advice.

Expertise

Spiritual Philosophy: As a “philosophical eclectic”, I have a deep understanding of various spiritual and philosophical traditions, including Eastern philosophies (Zen, Taoism, Advaita Vedanta, etc.), mindfulness practices, and non-dualistic thought.
Life Experience: Embodied knowledge gained through personal experiences, including a transformative journey and self-realization, providing a relatable and empathetic approach.
Teaching Background: Former pastor, current educator, skilled in communicating complex concepts in an understandable and relatable manner.
Mindfulness and Meditation: Proficiency in guiding individuals through mindfulness and meditation practices, tailored to different levels of experience and designed to foster self-awareness and inner peace.
I-Ching Interpretation: Experience in studying and interpreting the I-Ching, providing receivers with meaningful insights and guidance derived from this ancient Chinese text.
Religious Studies Background / Deconstruction Support: Former Christian pastor, grounded knowledge in religious studies, allowing for adequate guidance for those going through deep philosophical changes or doubts.

Why I Charge For My Services

The question of charging for services such as these is one into which I’ve put much thought.

Commitment: Charging a fee represents a mutual commitment. It ensures that my time is spent with those who are genuinely interested in the path to realization. It also motivates me to provide the best possible guidance and experience for you.
Value Exchange: The exchange of energy and resources signifies the value you place on self-realization and growth. It’s an investment in your own experience.
Sustainability, Time, and Energy: Offering one-on-one sessions requires a considerable amount of time, energy, resources, and focus. By charging for these services, I can ensure that I can continue to devote myself fully to the individuals I’m guiding.
Not About Money, But Passion: Alan Watts once said, “If you say that getting the money is the most important thing, you’ll spend your life completely wasting your time. You’ll be doing things you don’t like doing in order to go on living, that is to go on doing things you don’t like doing, which is stupid.” Offering these services is what I love and live for. Like a bird singing, I am offering myself to you in dialogue and guidance. The money simply ensures that I can devote the quality time that I desire to devote to those who choose to walk with me in this journey.
