About
Bridging the ancient
and the emergent
"As creation gains various means of experiencing its inner and outer worlds, so does the Divine come into fuller and fuller experience of itself."
Ayeh Kashani is a philosopher, scholar, Minister of Sacred Practices, and contemplative facilitator whose work lives at the threshold between ancient wisdom traditions and the frontiers of transpersonal science.
A Ph.D. candidate in Philosophy, Cosmology & Consciousness at the California Institute of Integral Studies (CIIS), her dissertation Birthing the Absolute situates Stanislav Grof's cartography of the psyche — perinatal matrices, COEX systems, and transpersonal domains — within Friedrich Schelling's organic metaphysics, asking what the architecture of non-ordinary experience reveals about the generative ground of being.
She is a certified Grof® Breathwork facilitator, guiding participants into non-ordinary states for healing, integration, and expanded self-understanding. As co-founder of Technologies of the Sacred, she integrates scholarly research with ministerial practice — offering transformative spiritual coaching, integration services, and guidance through profound experiences that deepen connections to self, spirit, and cosmos.
She is also a scholar affiliated with Human Energy, a nonprofit advancing research into the noosphere and humanity's collective potential, working directly on the techno-social dilemma at the intersection of technology, meaning, and civilization.
