About

Paula Dianne Upton an American contemplative mystic and Gnostic currently living in New England. She experienced the enlightenment of the Divine Heart (Hrit Padma) in 1994, an event that transformed her life and opened a lifelong devotion to consciousness and unconditional love.

     Over the years that followed, she also realized the remaining two aspects of the triadic realization of supreme enlightenment: the realization of mind (Cosmic Consciousness) and the activation of body (Kundalini). Having fully embodied all three—heart, mind, and body—she now illuminates the principles of awakening and unconditional love through her teachings. 

     She has studied classic mysticism since the 1990s, including the Gnostic and Essene teachings of The Christ, Tantric Mysticism, Western Christian mysticism, The Limitless Light, Zen, the Vedas, Upanishads, and more. Her work draws from Zen insights on satori, Mahayana teachings on supreme enlightenment, and Vajrayana perspectives on the Ground, along with Eastern influences such as the Shabd (the “Naam,” or Christ’s living stream sound current).

     Her past work includes serving as a spiritual director, counselor, and healer, guiding those through the dark night of the soul, depression and grief, addiction, chronic illness, pain, and catastrophic injury.
