There is a particular frustration that comes from reading everything, understanding everything intellectually, and still not feeling any different. You understand that you are awareness. You can explain it to others. And yet the weight, the anxiety, the sense of not-quite-arriving is still there.
The Still Point is designed precisely for that gap — between intellectual understanding and genuine recognition. Each of the seven weeks addresses a specific dimension of the teaching, with guided practices that bring understanding out of the head and into the body, the nervous system, and the actual texture of daily life.
Students who have tried many courses and approaches consistently describe this as the first one that produced a genuine shift — not because it is the most sophisticated, but because it is the most direct. Maitreya does not teach around the recognition. She points at it.
I have taken many courses. I have read all the books. This is the first time something actually changed — not just what I understood, but where I stand. I finished Week 3 and realised something was different. It still is, six months later.

Each week builds on the last — not as separate topics, but as deepening angles on a single living recognition.
The foundational recognition. Not philosophy, not concept — direct pointing at the awareness that is reading these words. What it is, what it is not, and how to touch it now.
How the mind creates a self through thought — and what happens when you begin to see the mechanism clearly rather than living inside it.
Presence is not in the head. This week works extensively with the body as the most direct access point to the recognition — somatic practices, breath, and felt awareness.
The accumulated emotional residue that colours every experience. How it forms, how it perpetuates itself, and what genuine presence does to it — gently, naturally, without force.
A precise and compassionate examination of how the ego maintains itself — and why the only thing that actually dissolves it is the kind of honest attention that has no agenda.
Why other people are our most powerful teachers. How to bring the recognition of presence into the most challenging relational territory without losing it.
How the glimpse becomes a ground. Practices and orientations for carrying the recognition into ordinary life, and what to do when it seems to disappear.
Each week, a 90-minute live session with Maitreya — part teaching, part guided practice, part open Q&A. If you miss one, the recording is available within 24 hours.
Two guided practices per week — one for morning, one for evening. Designed to be used daily, not once and filed away.
A concise written companion for each week — key pointers, practice notes, and the single most important thing to work with before the next session.
A dedicated online space for Still Point participants — for questions, insights, and the particular support of practising alongside others doing the same work.
Every session, every practice audio, every integration guide. Available for as long as the course exists. Return to any week whenever you need it.
One month of continued access to Maitreya and the teaching team after the programme ends, to support ongoing integration.
This whole journey is about Pure Consciousness and the passing of it without reaching for the fruits of our actions.— Maitreya
I came expecting a course. I found a direct encounter with something I had been circling for years. By Week 4, the seeking had genuinely quieted. That has not reversed.
— Rachel K., LondonAs a meditation teacher myself, I was sceptical. What I found was a precision and directness I had not encountered elsewhere. My own teaching has been transformed.
— James T., MelbourneThe practices are deceptively simple. That simplicity is the whole point — they keep bringing you back to what is actually here, rather than what you think should be here.
