Emerson Non-Duality
Contemporary direct-path nonduality. His own site and podcast center on "instant recognition" and the "end of seeking," with a radical, non-conceptual style rather than a named classical lineage.
Simply Always Awake
Angelo Dilullo's channel. Contemporary awakening teaching with strong self-inquiry, no-self, shadow-work, and Zen-practice roots; his site explicitly points readers to The Three Pillars of Zen and organizes material around non-duality, no-self, and self-inquiry.
Christopher Wallis (Hareesh)
Classical Tantra with clear nondual Shaiva and Kashmir Shaivism roots. A Sanskrit scholar-practitioner initiated in a traditional Indian lineage, with explicit grounding in Shaiva Tantra, Classical Yoga, and source-text study.
Nishanth Selvalingam
Yoga, Vedanta, and Tantra with strong Shaiva roots. His public teaching centers on Kashmir Shaivism and nondual Tantra, with Shaiva Siddhanta practice background and Ramakrishna lineage connection through Swami Sarvadevananda Puri.
Frank Yang
Eclectic contemporary nonduality. He explicitly teaches a hybrid of mindfulness, Vipassana, do-nothing meditation, self-inquiry, Dzogchen-style practice, jhanas, and samadhi, so this is more of a pragmatic mixed-method path than a single lineage.
Michael Taft Nondual Meditation
Pragmatic nondual meditation with strong Buddhist roots, especially Vajrayana and Dzogchen-style methods, combined with modern insight practice and deconstructive meditation frameworks.
Mountain Gnosis
Helen's channel. Short, high-quality explainer videos on consciousness, no-self, the witness, emptiness, and perception. Not presented as belonging to one formal path; it draws eclectically from Buddhism, Advaita-style witness consciousness, Hindu sources like the Upanishads and Ramakrishna/Vivekananda, plus modern neuroscience and philosophy.
Gary Weber
Advaita-oriented nonduality with major Ramana Maharshi influence, combined with Zen, yoga, chanting, and neuroscience. His work is especially focused on ending compulsive thought through embodied practice and inquiry.
Adyashanti
Zen-rooted awakening teaching. He trained for years in Zen under teachers connected to Taizan Maezumi Roshi and Jakusho Kwong Roshi, but his public teaching is broad, direct, and post-sectarian rather than narrowly Buddhist.
Rob Burbea Talks
Western Buddhist Insight Meditation with deep emphasis on emptiness, dependent arising, jhana, and Rob Burbea's original "ways of looking" and later Soulmaking Dharma work.
Moojiji
Advaita satsang and self-inquiry in the Papaji to Ramana Maharshi line. The emphasis is direct recognition of the Self through inquiry, presence, and surrender.
Rupert Spira
Direct Path nonduality grounded in Advaita Vedanta and Kashmir Shaivism, especially through Francis Lucille, Jean Klein, and Atmananda Krishna Menon influences.
