Abstract
This manuscript thesis is an exploration of non-dual awareness and its integration into the field of counseling. The author begins with a biographical introspective, examining the significance of non-dual awareness to his well-being and personal journey, then moves to defining and discussing the ephemeral quality of non-dual awareness. Eastern and Western manifestations of non-dual awareness are described in Chapters two and three, respectively, leading to a presentation of three counseling approaches which integrate non-dual awareness into practice in Chapter four. Finally, as the thesis began, it concludes with personal meaning, discussing the implications for the author's practice and how non-dual awareness will be woven into his counseling work.
