Seeing True™ is a moment of epiphany that is so pronounced that subsequent changes in direction or behavior are dramatically altered for the better. The Greeks called this “metanoia,” which means "change of mind," though it might translate better today as “a profound change of heart.” In the Seeing True framework, we focus on transformation as the desired result, and forgiveness and relationships as the spaces in which we practice.

Read MoreHaving a constant battle with those we perceive to be our “enemies” comes at a massive psychic cost, to say nothing of the very real social costs of the great divide we experience. In the end, the problem is our relationship to those externalities where the problem lies.
Read MoreThe Greek word, "metanoia" literally means "beyond the mind." However, we often define it as a “profound change of heart.” Given the centrality of Seeing True’s™ explorations and explanations for transformation, what do these ideas tell us, and where might they take us?
Read MoreSeeing True is a framework and practice for living an engaged life through forgiveness.
