EnlightenNext is not just an organization . . . it’s a state of consciousness.

It’s what happens when the freedom, joy, and liberating clarity of spiritual enlightenment comes together with a passionate sense of responsibility for evolution, for what’s next.

That is the current of inspiration, purpose, optimism, and awakened interest that fuels everything we do. It’s the thrill of perpetual development and dynamic creativity, of being connected to the very energy behind the evolving universe. Through events, publications, and an expanding global network of Evolutionaries, EnlightenNext is dedicated to offering forums in which people can experience and engage with this state of consciousness together. We’re convinced that spiritual enlightenment is not a personal matter, but an evolutionary potential that really does have the power to change our world from the inside out and create a new foundation for our collective culture.

Founded in 1988 by spiritual teacher Andrew Cohen, EnlightenNext is a nonprofit organization that has grown and developed into a global movement dedicated to bringing spiritual enlightenment out of the meditation room and into the complex and deeply significant conversations that are driving cultural evolution at the leading edge. At the heart of the organization is a committed group of men and women who have spent over two decades immersed in spiritual practice and engaging in dialogue with leading thinkers in spirituality, science, business, politics, and the arts. We offer an annual cycle of core programs including events with Andrew Cohen; courses, seminars, and virtual discussions; the award-winning magazine What Is Enlightenment?; and, soon to be launched, a one-month annual retreat and an international conference. The network of activists, spiritual practitioners, idealists, and cultural visionaries that is connecting around this hub reaches across the globe and into ever-diversifying fields, united by a passion for enlightening the next steps in our collective evolution.
