AWARENESS
AWARENESS
A Contemplation with Peter Fenner
A Film by Michael Bailey
We are naturally free and complete.
This film reveals our innate essence: awareness —
a challenge because awareness
is neither something nor nothing.
AWARENESS reveals our innate essence —
often called “enlightenment” —
as illuminated in the work of Peter Fenner.

The film invites viewers to experience
the awakened mind of awareness for themselves,
naturally free and complete.
In over 50 years of study, research, and teaching,
Peter Fenner, PhD has distilled the liberating heart
of ancient traditions like Dzogchen, Mahamudra, Zen,
Advaita, and the Buddhist Middle Way (Madhyamaka),
making this essence accessible to our modern lives.
Through a combination of documentary scenes of
Peter’s work, guided meditations, focused questioning,
and contemplative moments, we are invited to enter
the open wisdom-mind that has been realized
across cultures by masters and sages of earlier ages.
Peter intimately engages with us to show
how we can effortlessly join this dynamic lineage
by simply being where we are, in the present moment,
without needing to acquire more knowledge
or engage in a time-framed practice.
We also look into Peter’s unique methodology,
and his collaboration with his wife, Marie Barincou,
in designing and delivering programs
for his worldwide students.
And given that awareness is
neither something nor nothing,
the film uses unconventional approaches
to reveal what can’t be revealed.
