Nine Gateways to Presence

Publisher's summary

Explore the full scope of the Enneagram to illuminate your greatest wisdom, become your truest self, and face life’s challenges with fortitude and grace.

“Who am I, really?” It’s such a fundamental question of human existence that entire schools of philosophy, spirituality, and scientific pursuit have been founded to ponder it.

Of these, the Enneagram is one of the most robust and informative tools for investigating some of the deeper layers of the self, yet the full power of it is not always taught. Leading scholar Russ Hudson teaches, “Too often, the Enneagram is viewed as a set of simple personality types that lock us into fixed ideas about ourselves. In reality, it’s a dynamic tool for transformation.”

With The Enneagram: Nine Gateways to Presence, Hudson shares an in-depth audio training on how to use this powerful system the way it was originally intended - as a pathway to deeper self-knowledge and spiritual attunement. Rather than providing a simple explanatory guide to the Enneagram’s nine personality types (such as the achiever, the investigator, or the enthusiast), Hudson offers an in-depth training in the potential of the entire system. And when you understand the Enneagram as a whole, you will discover new avenues to emotional literacy, greater compassion, and the recognition of all life’s inherent gifts.

Here you will learn:

• Why attachment to a single personality type obscures the full purpose and potential of the Enneagram
• How to investigate and discern the purpose of lifelong survival strategies
• Each personality type’s polarities - from passions to virtues, fixations to holy ideas
• How the Enneagram reveals deeper truths about our interconnectedness
• What different levels of self-development look like for each personality type
• How to bring the experience and lessons of presence into everyday life

Including guided meditation sessions tailored for each personality type, The Enneagram is an invitation to think beyond self-made boundaries and gain insight into your ongoing challenges, greatest strengths, and highest path of growth.

Absolutely gorgeous

One of the best Enneagram resources I’ve come across in fifteen years studying it; informative AND moving

As a four

Very insightful. I feel thankful for the beautiful and positive way the author found to address the different points. The approach is full of hope and inspiration for growth work, by catching the beauty of each type.

Powerful!

This audiobook is packed with the potential for transformation—not simply at an individual level but also humanity. A knowledge of one’s Enneagram type can be helpful, but isn’t necessary, as the depth Russ goes into may help clarify where you land—or, as the book makes clear, where you *begin *. I will use the wisdom in this book for the rest of my life on earth.

Excellent

Russ is so clear and kind

Great teaching of the Enneagram. So much depth so much to understand. I can listen to it over and over and learn every time.

This is the best Enneagram wisdom available

What I love about Russ’s teaching is 1) He brings both nuance and clarity to Enneagram teachings in ways that enrich our understanding and our very capacity to understand. 2) He is not just smart. He has done his work and practices what he preaches, so his heart is kind and open. 3) no matter how many times I hear him talk about The Enneagram, I always, always learn something new and understand it more deeply. Russ is a humble master. We are lucky he is still on the planet.

Thoughtful, Spiritual, life time of work.

I will listen many times over. I especially appreciate the overall wisdom emphasized by Russ that we have aspects of all 9 types. Being dominantly type 2, I cried through the beautiful truths that I can take to heart. ❤️

What a gift

This really helped me deepen my understanding. The embodiment of his leadership shines through the clarity of his delivery.
