The study guides offered below are studies that have been undertaken over the years with proven worth. They incorporate the skillful means of Enhanced Emergent Knowledge developed by Renshin Verkuilen based on David Grove’s Metaphor Therapy. It is “Enhanced” because it contains two Yogacara Buddhist elements added to Grove’s unidimensional approach. Its use offers an opportunity to activate and manifest the process of awakening. The Enhanced Emergent Knowledge process engages with the fundamental principle of Buddhism: wisdom – the faculty of intuition – wherein the inconceivable Universal Aspect of Mind is revealed and made realizable.
