“Jonathan Gustin is a very rare example of a seasoned meditation teacher who understands the spiritual necessity of the descent to soul and sacred darkness — as well as the ascent to the light and the One. He guides his students in both directions, down as well as up. I have had the pleasure of witnessing Jonathan teach — he is delightfully personable and humble and is exceptionally clear, thorough, penetrating, engaging, and inspiring. Don’t miss the opportunity. ”

“Jonathan’s teachings are coherent, clear, concise, and grateful. He is always striving to incorporate more truth, and to embrace and midwife the awakening of more and more of the whole person.”
