Awakening Guide

Rohan is a non-dual teacher in Western Australia who has been sharing direct transmission since August 2013 - offering interactive online Satsangs for over 10 years.


Open Satsang occurs twice weekly (Wed 8pm & Sat 9am AWST) via Zoom and in-person in Perth.
Buddhist non-dual orientated retreats (3-10 days) and private one-to-one sessions are also available worldwide via Zoom.
A deeper mystery school also exists for committed students, including those now deepening into the non-dual "natural state of being".

"There's nothing to add. What you are is prior to beliefs, thoughts and labels. Here we explore and unveil the ultimate mystery of non-dual being. Reality." - Rohan


Direct dharma transmission with awakened teacher Rohan - a former marine engineer. Rohan's first glimpse of what lies beyond the mind - a Satori - came at age nine in a spontaneous opening into the mysterious vastness of nondual consciousness.
A 1994 Vipassana retreat in Brookton, Western Australia reopened the "stateless state" and in 2013 the homecoming became abiding. Rohan has been sharing this with seekers ever since.

From Marine Engineer to Inward Engineer

Rohan brings his extensive engineering troubleshooter background to assist your inner practice. His approach is diagnostic - meeting you exactly where you are, identifying what's actually in the way, and offering tools that suit your particular way of being.

This is not philosophy, static practices (that usually don't fit the seeker's personality), or group discussion. These are direct, personal teachings that are highly effective - if results are your measuring stick.

Rohan meets you at whatever level you're at and only shares tools he has proven, that suit your way of being rather than the usual generic nondual, Buddhist, or repetitive pointers.

What is Inner Peace Foundation?

It started quietly. A carpenter working on Rohan's house noticed something about his presence and asked to sit with him. Small circles formed among friends. Word spread - not through marketing, but through the changes people close to Rohan couldn't help but notice in each other. These gatherings expanded via word of mouth as some participants reported profound shifts in consciousness.

The teaching offers what Buddha called the "triple gem": Sangha (community of fellow seekers), Dharma (direct teachings), and the awakened presence of a living teacher.

Students report that something shifts in these gatherings that doesn't happen from books, apps, or peer-led groups alone. Over a decade of unedited recordings on YouTube lets you verify this for yourself. Essentially, it's unveiling your true nature - what ancient texts and masters have pointed at for thousands of years.

10+ Years of Unedited Teachings on YouTube

Most teachers curate carefully. Rohan publishes unfiltered & free. Watch, listen, and feel the transmission for yourself.

Is This Right for You?

Most spiritual offerings add something — a technique, a belief, an identity. This removes. If you're looking for a smoother ego or a spiritual label to wear, this isn't the right place.

But if you've reached a point where the books feel circular, the apps feel shallow, and something in you knows there's a door you haven't walked through — you may recognise what's here. Suffering can actually end and Non-Dual Reality can abide. Not as a concept. As lived experience. What remains when the noise falls away is love — not as sentiment, but as the ground of what you are.

"The initial spiritual awakening is just the beginning, not the end. There is no end to the beautiful opening. Spirituality ends and Reality remains, ever unfolding. Now." - Rohan

New to Satsang?

How does online Satsang work?

All Satsang sessions run live on Zoom. You'll receive a link after booking. Sessions include guided meditation, direct transmission, and open inquiry where you can ask Rohan questions directly. Online students worldwide report the same depth of experience as those attending in person — the energetic transmission doesn't diminish through a screen.

What is the difference between this and meditation or therapy?

Meditation teaches technique. Therapy often rearranges the furniture of the mind for a more comfortable life. This dissolves the structure itself. You're sitting with someone who has crossed the threshold from seeking to abiding peace — and that presence transmits. The ancient traditions call this the Buddha Field. It's why seekers have always gathered around awakened teachers rather than just reading texts.

History is littered with the highest level teachers saying versions of "in the company of truth" or "Satsang" is the only way home.

How do I know if Rohan is genuinely awakened?

Don't take anyone's word for it — including his. Over a decade of unedited Satsang recordings are freely available on YouTube. Read the student experiences. Then attend one session and notice what happens in your own body and mind. Authentic transmission is self-evident — the mind quiets, presence deepens, and something beyond concepts is recognised. No belief required.

I've read a lot about spirituality — is this different?

Reading about awakening and sitting with an awakened teacher are as different as reading about swimming and getting in the water. Intellectual understanding can be the mind's subtlest trap — it creates the feeling of progress while keeping everything firmly in place. Many of Rohan's students arrived with extensive spiritual knowledge and were surprised to discover none of it had touched what they actually are.

Do I need experience or preparation?

No. Some of the most profound shifts have happened in students who arrived with zero meditation background. What matters is sincerity, not experience. Come as you are.

*Some "Enlightenment" Housekeeping

"To be precise, no-one actually wakes up or is Enlightened etc as that implies a separate entity. This is experientially disproved upon the seeing of true self and so such words are used only to point and differentiate between those 'home' and those not.
A teacher not 'home' can not possibly show a seeker what 'home' is and can only talk about a personal concept of truth." Rohan

The labels help you discern from the "addition" systems, self-help, spirituality and religions that are not rooted in the teacher's ongoing direct knowing that the "I" or Ego is not real, and that its beliefs (thoughts) create all our suffering.

All you need is within you and always has been. Self-Realisation guidance is unveiling that truth of truths.
