Following nine albums and 18 years as one of the most cherished of Pat Metheny’s collaborators, Sánchez has also recorded and performed with Gary Burton, Michael Brecker, Charlie Haden and Chick Corea. In 2014 Sánchez’s popularity soared when he scored Alejandro González Iñárritu’s Birdman which ended up garnering four Academy Awards (including Best Picture). Today, Sánchez is among the most sought-after jazz drummers in the world and has been Modern Drummer’s “Jazz Drummer of the Year” on multiple occasions. His new album SHIFT – Bad Hombre Vol. II, featuring Dave Mathews, Trent Reznor and a host of other guest artists, will be released on Warner Bros this August.

The holy grail of metaphysics is the spiritual enlightenment of the soul. This is the gradual process of evolution and maturity when the soul pierces the veil of matter and experiences God. While God dwells in all of us and is “closer than hands and feet”, the knowing of God is hidden from us until we seek out the Divine. Like the seedling buried deep in the earth is striving to break ground to the world of sunlight and the bounty of nature, our soul buried deep in material consciousness is striving to reach the sunlight of eternal truth. In the 21st century, we are at the threshold of a new era in our relationship with God. As humanity understands the workings of physical nature better than ever, this beckons us to gain a deeper, more mature understanding of God and the part the Divine plays in our life. In this illumination workshop, explore ways to deepen your relationship to the Divine—the fountainhead of creativity, intelligence, inspiration and love. Discover metaphysical tools to better align with the Creator inspiring you with a greater sense of life’s purpose and meaning. Experience auric meditations to elevate your consciousness helping to give a clearer picture of your part in the grand divine design.
