    Hillary08 “Hillary Davis unites in her being such extreme poles of transcendental bliss, at one ‘end,’ and deep psychological familiarity with the depths of human devastation and suffering at the other, that her very presence is a benediction to everyone who truly encounters her. Anyone can benefit from her darshan and her good counsel and healing touch. I especially recommend her to those who know they are shattered or in deep distress and still also dare to aspire to fundamental divine awakeness. In many ways, Hillary can help you both heal and stand free, liberated and yet ever growing and evolving. She is one of the treasures of the Waking Down Community.”—Saniel Bonder, founder, the Waking Down Work

    Krishna Gauci “Krishna Gauci is a talented Teacher of the Waking Down in Mutuality process. I am especially pleased to have someone present our work who had previously entered into a profound realization of the Self through the Advaita tradition. Krishna has come into a clear and vibrant awakening, transmission, and teaching capacity in our deep-feeling embodiment and mutual exploration of that same Self. I heartily recommend his services, including the Waking Down teachings and events and his own personal offerings.”—Saniel Bonder, founder, the Waking Down Work
