Something a little different today – Patrick Ryan, is an executive coach, leadership trainer, author, and founder of Awakened Wisdom Experiences Inc. As a former Buddhist monk in Burma (now Myanmar), he practiced the path of awakened living, according to Buddhist philosophy. Today, Patrick is a successful entrepreneur and an executive coach, trainer, and author who works with executives and entrepreneurs, focusing on questions of personal effectiveness and leadership. Patrick calls on his diverse and rich life experiences and integrates them with ancient teachings and modern applications in order to help deepen his clients understandings of their own experiences.
In Patricks own words:
“Imagine a life through which you managed to rise above the fears and concerns that always linger faithfully in the background, haunting us with their song of intended safety, always with the purpose of keeping the status quo. Imagine a life without those messages you tell your Self about what you can’t do, or those messages that diminish the brilliance of who you are in any way. You know the voice I mean.
Imagine that you integrated those voices in such a way that they no longer gripped you but rather informed you about interesting and relevant conditions to pay attention to.
And now, as you are no longer held in false constraints, you are free. Free to listen and respond to the wisdom of the moment. Free to wonder what is possible in creating more beauty and dreams. Free to respond to the yearning of your heart that knows that more is possible…”
These are the opening words of “Awakened Wisdom – A Guide To Reclaiming Your Brilliance.” the new book that Patrick Ryan is releasing in April. In this book Patrick Ryan says a life well-lived is an awakened life, in which we shift away from our “distorted self” and connect with our “Divine Essence”, and allow that wisdom to guide us. To achieve this, Patrick Ryan gives us a formula: the “Eight States of an Awakened Life”.
Patrick shares that for our awakening to unfold, we must come into a “good state” of relationship with our understanding, our intention, our words, our being, our purpose, our effort, our practice and our doing. Once we are in a “good state” with all these things, we are able to see life clearly, and our decisions and actions in life become purposeful, powerful and meaningful. Patrick explains the “Eight States of an Awakened Life” in great detail in his book, Awakened Wisdom.
I think it sounds fascinating… what do you think? Awakened Wisdom is more than just a ‘book’, it is also a practical manual which provides dozens of affirmations and practical exercises to help you learn and master each of the Eight State and help you begin to create your own well-lived life. I’m pleased to see such a spiritual book come down-to-earth so we can actually apply the teachings within our daily lives, particularly from an author who actually works with executives and entrepreneurs to help them achieve personal effectiveness and leadership.
“Awakened Wisdom – A Guide To Reclaiming Your Brilliance” is released on Amazon on April 20th, 2010.
