About HÜMÜH
Like ancient seed sprouting in new soil, HÜMÜH, Transcendental Buddhism, Jeweled Path of Living Wisdom, Ati-Yoga, made its first appearance in March, 1992. Brought forth by Wisdom Master Maticintin as an expression of primordial wisdom that directly addresses the Western body/mind connection in such a way that enlightenment results. The spiritual path of HÜMÜH began in the United States and rapidly expanded into Canada, while developing membership in a variety of other countries.
As a spiritual path, HÜMÜH extracts the nectar from the Teachings of earlier schools of Buddhism, such as Vipassana, Zen, and Tibetan, and expounds life as a transcendental dreamtime whose purpose is to create the experience necessary for the dreamer to awaken fully to enlightened consciousness. The term transcendental means to go beyond the limitations of the ordinary consciousness which sees things as dual (life/death, good/bad, worthy/unworthy) to the non-dual, all-encompassing reality of Oneness. This opens the door to experiencing life from the overview, which enables one to make choices that end habitual suffering.
The essential Teachings of HÜMÜH encompass loving kindness and compassion toward all living beings; they also contain specific practices for opening the heart. The practitioner of HÜMÜH has the opportunity to become a bodhisattva, a person who consciously acts for the benefit of others as an essential part of pursuing one’s own enlightenment. On this transcendental path, bodhisattva action and clear-light living meditation are combined with shamanic healing and systems of alchemy through transformations of energy, pure-vision, non-duality, equanimity, and spontaneity. HÜMÜH employs skillful and powerful creative practices, initiations, mantras, and the study of the 100 Secret Formulas that lead to the transcendental awakenings necessary to transmute unwanted life situations.
HÜMÜH’s Transcendental Awareness Institute has an extensive Home-Study Course in Self-Mastery comprised of a series of Teaching instructions available on a monthly basis to students in both CD and printed form. The series begins with a course on CHOD: Cutting Through Obstacles. Each discourse is a Teaching given directly by the Wisdom Master to students for their personal study and spiritual nourishment. The CD’s are actual live recordings of Teachings by the Wisdom Master. Students are encouraged to listen to them repeatedly so that they can gain deeper understanding through hearing the actual tone, cadence, and inflection of the Wisdom Master’s voice. These monthly discourses are profound Teachings that can help students refine their lives in practical ways that will gradually allow them to make their lives what they truly want them to be. For those who wish to penetrate even more deeply into the Teachings, there are additional opportunities for special experiential Initiations and the study of the 100 Transcendental Awareness Secret Formulas. The T.A.I. also offers degrees in Logic and Buddhism to those who complete all the above and pass the requirements and examinations for the Bachelor, Master, and Doctoral levels.
At present, HÜMÜH has a 220-acre Monastery/Life Science Center, located in British Columbia, Canada, 42 miles north of the Washington State border. It also has Buddhist - Life Science Centers in Washington and Arizona, USA, as well as Spiritual Study Groups in Arizona, Washington, Idaho, Vermont, Colorado, Virginia and Michigan, USA.
