Neil Douglas-Klotz, PhD – The Way of Aramaic Jesus

Experience what it was like to hear Jesus speak during his lifetime, and see the world through the lens intended — to reveal a deep spirituality and liberation that can transform your life.

Experience a sense of oneness to heal your past, transform your sense of separation, and feel grounded amidst the changes in the world — while gaining insight into your soul’s purpose and your relationship with the spiritual and natural worlds.

Regardless of what your upbringing, religion, or cultural traditions might have taught you about who Jesus was and what message he conveyed during his time on earth…

… can you imagine what it might have been like to live in his lifetime — before organized religion translated (and often misrepresented) his message? To actually sit before him and hear him speak?

Neil Douglas-Klotz, PhD, world-renowned scholar and researcher in Middle Eastern spirituality, wants to bring that experience to you!

What many people don’t know is that Jesus’ native tongue was an ancient Middle Eastern language known as Aramaic.

Neil has dedicated 40 years of pioneering work on the Aramaic words of Jesus, or Yeshua, as he was known in his native language.

What’s also unfamiliar to most, shares Neil, is that Jesus embodied a philosophy in which there was no separation between inner and outer worlds…

… little boundary between the self and other… where past, present, and future coexisted simultaneously… and the body, mind, and spirit were completely interconnected with nature and the unseen worlds.

It was a philosophy typical of ancient Middle Eastern culture, very much alive and integrated into the daily life of those who lived in Jesus’ time.

It was a time when people existed at one with the land and approached themselves, their community, and life itself from a compassionate, humane outlook. The actual Aramaic words Jesus spoke, Neil says, were reflective of this oneness mentality.

Jesus espoused a worldview that was dramatically different from the masculine, dominant, sometimes punitive, and close-minded one-God dogma that much of modern Christianity preaches.

In fact, Neil affirms, Jesus wasn’t asking people to have faith in him, but to have the same trust that he held in a greater sense of self and a much bigger universe that encompasses us all …

… a profound sense of unity that we can bring into the here and now.

Neil can guide you into the time of Jesus by leading you line-by-line to learn the Lord’s Prayer (Yeshua’s Prayer) in its original Aramaic.

In Neil’s eye-opening (and heart-opening) new 7-week live course, move through the seven steps of Yeshua’s Prayer — one line in each session — with chants, silent meditations, breathwork, and body movements…

… that will not only teach you the prayer, but will transport you into an embodied state where you can actually experience the way of life Jesus intended to illuminate and support.

This course is about much more than the translation of Jesus’ words — it’s about understanding the truth of his words and learning to trust your place in the universe.

Chanting the words of Yeshua’s Prayer in Aramaic and feeling their vibration through your whole being is a direct portal into Jesus’ way, says Neil — which you can experience through levels of consciousness that you may never have tapped before.

Understanding the prayer will enable you to release past trauma, old hurts, and internalized guilt, and assist you in letting go of the idea that you need to save your soul — so you’re free to walk your true path.

Gaining an understanding of Yeshua’s Prayer can lessen feelings of helplessness, isolation, and paralysis amidst the world’s challenges, and connect you to a source of empowerment that will guide you to actualize what you came into this world to do.

As you’ll discover, when you experience Jesus’ sayings and actions through his native language, you’ll find a hidden gospel — a stunning spiritual practice that has been obscured by hundreds of years of mistranslation and misunderstanding.

Jesus’ way of spirit and breath can come through in your own embodied experience.

And, if you’re among those who’ve been disillusioned (or even shamed) by organized religion, experiencing Jesus through Neil’s wisdom is bound to be a healing salve for your soul.

During this transformative course, you’ll:

What You’ll Discover in The Way of Aramaic Jesus

Join the Livestream — or Stream Later to Watch at Your Convenience

Module 1: The Ancient Native Middle Eastern View — Uniting Nature, Humanity & the Divine as a Healing Way of Life (May 29)

Learn how to unveil the spiritual way of the Aramaic Jesus — for and in yourself.

As Neil will share, many people today feel disorientated by life’s challenges, distressed by the state of the world, and spiritually “homeless” in a real sense. Yeshua’s words and teachings embody a healthy, originally nomadic, Southwest Asian view of life.

A few thousand years of mistranslation and misinterpretation have kept this view of Jesus hidden. Explore how his native Aramaic language reveals a world in which your inner and outer lives are connected — as are seen and unseen life. Discover how your past, present, and future are linked.

Neil will illustrate how Yeshua’s teachings invite us to unite nature, humanity, and the Divine in a new, healing view of life.

In this module, you’ll discover:

• The radical differences of hearing Jesus in his native language
• The first line of Yeshua’s Prayer and meditation, experienced and embodied in chant, contemplation, and body prayer
• A one-word chant and one-minute meditation that can stay with you for your entire life
• The name of the Divine used by Yeshua in Aramaic, often translated in a very limited way as “God”
• How Yeshua didn’t want you to save your soul, but to allow your soul to save you
• What “prayer” actually means in Aramaic and what Yeshua really meant by “praying in my name”

Module 2: Focusing on Your Heart’s Light to Understand the True Meaning of “Holiness” (June 5)

The word “holiness,” as often used by conventional Christianity, raises images of a disembodied, ascetic state — and conjures feelings of not being good enough.

But Yeshua’s Aramaic word for “holiness” is about focusing your heart’s light by letting go and creating space.

Learn how Yeshua guided people to do this in a very specific, embodied way. Understand why some mental and emotional releasing doesn’t work, and encounter Yeshua’s clear remedy for it.

Begin to use an Aramaic map of the soul, self, and heart that can transform your life.

In this module, you’ll discover:

• Yeshua’s way of working with the breath, as well as the “Holy Breath” (or the “Holy Spirit”)
• A simple healing breath meditation using the Aramaic words for nature’s 5 elements
• Chant, meditate, and move in rhythm into the second step of Yeshua’s Prayer and way of blessing
• The best way to say and chant Aramaic to connect with Jesus’ heart (hint: it’s simple!)
• The slow yet dramatic evolution of human consciousness from Yeshua’s time to ours — and how it affects you, whether or not you think you’re spiritual

Module 3: Learning to Walk Into Our Transformed “I Can!” — An Empowered Healing Path (June 12)

Neil will share one of the most mistranslated words in the Gospels and one of the most important words in Aramaic — “kingdom.”

According to Neil, the conventional Christian use of the word “kingdom” often raises images of an exclusive group ruled by patriarchal beliefs.

Yeshua’s word for this is clearly feminine and points toward an experience of self-empowerment that happens as you grow up and learn how to manage your “self” as your life progresses.

Learn how Yeshua’s inner way is like healthy, natural, plant-based medicine, which can return you to your own healing power, rather than try to control outer symptoms.

Over time, the words of his prayer can become part of your consciousness — preserving the good effects without leaving behind negative side effects of a “power-over” system.

In this module, you’ll discover:

• The importance of what Yeshua called the “I can” — the inner queendom — and how to reactivate it in your life
• How your own “I can” evolves through the course of your life, and how to invoke it anytime, anywhere
• Step 3 of Yeshua’s Prayer, in chant, movement, and meditation
• How Yeshua and Middle Eastern mystics viewed time, and how to experience it yourself in an ancient, ecological meditation, using simple Aramaic words you’ll already have learned
• Yeshua’s view of being born from one womb to another — from before this life and into this one and then another

Module 4: Bringing Heaven & Earth Together — Uniting Life, Our Planet & the Cosmos to Bring You Into Rhythm With All of Life (Thursday, June 20)

In the center of Yeshua’s Prayer is a radically different view of the heart — a “big heart” that not only feels but can act with a powerful energy that combines love, desire, and healthy willpower.

Experience how this deeper, active dimension of the heart is the key to Yeshua’s way of bringing together individual life with community life, as well as individual purpose with collective benefit.

Find that this more unified view of life, love, and action (inner and outer) can bring immense transformation.

In this module, you’ll discover:

• What Yeshua meant by the “mind,” and where it’s located in you
• The ancient Middle Eastern view of the relationship between “heaven” and “earth,” and how this is reflected throughout the Bible (and largely misunderstood by scholars and theologians)
• Step 4 of Yeshua’s Prayer, and way, in chant, movement, and meditation
• An individual Aramaic body prayer that can bring you back into rhythm with your day, your season, and your life — and which will also help you remember the first half of Yeshua’s Prayer
• How Yeshua grounds his way in the living reality of Holy Wisdom/Sophia, as she is found in ancient Middle Eastern traditions
• An additional chant and meditation as you start to move into step 5 of Yeshua’s Prayer — and way

Module 5: Re-entering the Deeper Heart of Letting Go for Transformed Relationships With Yourself & Others (June 26)

Conventional Christianity puts emphasis on sin and guilt, which often paralyzes people.

For Yeshua, forgiveness and letting go take place on an entirely different level — one that frees you from the past so you can act clearly in the future.

Enter into an even deeper layer of letting go. Use the longest line of Yeshua’s Prayer to begin to clear and transform what you no longer need from your past.

Instead of paralysis, you’ll feel the real possibility of a transformed relationship with yourself and others.

In this module, you’ll discover:

• A deeper dimension of the Aramaic attunement to the elements of the natural world and holy wisdom
• Step 6 of Yeshua’s Prayer, experienced in chant, body prayer, and meditation
• How the direction of meditation or prayer being “outside” or “inside” are resolved in Yeshua’s nondualistic way of practice
• Another way Yeshua offers silent meditation — in 6 directions PLUS the mysterious seventh, linked to the seventh day of creation
• What “sin” and “trespasses” really meant in Aramaic — and how Yeshua works with what we call “boundary issues”

Module 6: Releasing Conventional Christianity’s Ideas of Good, Evil & Temptation to Reclaim Your Sense of Worthiness (July 10)

Explore what Neil considers to be one of the most damaging mistranslations of Yeshua’s words — “lead us not into temptation.”

Begin to release its effects on you personally and, through each of us, on the whole psyche of the Western world.

Conventional Christianity’s view of “good” and “evil” have also affected many people negatively because they cause feelings of unworthiness.

Learn how the Aramaic words for “good” and “evil” point to nature’s way of growth, ripeness, and decay, rather than to any fixed theological belief. They are some of the many ways that Yeshua’s teachings point you back to nature and a more humane way of life.

In this module, you’ll discover:

• The simple yet rich Aramaic words Yeshua uses to describe steps 7 and 8 of his way, experienced in chant, body prayer, and meditation
• A meditation with “the table of holy wisdom” and how Yeshua uses it to confront difficult circumstances
• What “happiness” and “blessedness” meant for Yeshua
• Yeshua’s view of humanity’s unconsciousness and unripeness, and how you can deal with it

Module 7: Embodying the Healing Impact of Yeshua’s Song to Return to Wholeness, Peace & Renewed Energy in Any Moment (July 17)

Begin to integrate everything you’ve learned and experienced of Yeshua’s way as modeled in his prayer.

Learn how to remember the healing effects of Yeshua’s Prayer, and grasp how his way frees you to find your own unique transaction with life.

As you re-feel Yeshua’s entire prayer, in words and in silence, begin to find a way to enter wholeness, healing, peace, and revivified energy at any moment.

In this module, you’ll discover:

• Step 9 of Jesus’ way of practice, in chant, movement, body prayer, and meditation
• How Yeshua dedicates his prayer and life using the image of music and cosmic harmony
• The ways Jesus’ way brings together sacred breath and sacred sense (Holy Spirit and holy wisdom)
• The second half of the personal Aramaic body prayer, which can ground your discoveries from this course and allow them to transform your everyday life
• How you can continue to shift from the Aramaic Jesus “out there” to living your own cosmic Christ within
