Meet Peter Ralston
Peter has devoted his life to the relentless pursuit of truth in both body and mind. Author of "The Book of Not Knowing" (revered as "the Bible of consciousness work"), Peter has pushed consciousness work to unprecedented depths.
His integrated mastery of mind and body—demonstrated by becoming world champion in full-contact martial arts—exemplifies his approach to transformative work.
Peter doesn't create followers; he facilitates individuals to directly experience their own true nature beyond concepts and beliefs. Through his teachings, thousands have discovered how to become genuinely conscious, experiencing life with extraordinary clarity and power.
His mission remains unwavering: empowering people to verify truth for themselves rather than adopting others' beliefs, creating a foundation for authentic transformation and truly conscious living.
What is Consciousness Work
This work gives you access to inner freedom and happiness, the ability to stop unnecessary suffering, and knowledge of how to be more effective in whatever you take on.
Most spiritual practices—Buddhist thought, Zen meditation, Vipassana, Mindfulness—make promises they fail to deliver. While their intent may be sincere and some work is useful, they are all limited. We align with that direction but go much deeper with far greater scope. We are committed only to the Truth.
Through facilitation and training, you understand how your mind gets you into trouble and learn new possibilities that free you from all that. You'll access principles that make your life successful and learn to increase your consciousness beyond anything you can imagine.
Although your attempts may have fallen short before, with this work freedom and happiness finally become available.
What People Experience Through Cheng Hsin
"True innovators are, by definition, ahead of their time. Therefore, they remain largely unrecognized, except by a few. How many of us wished we had met Bruce Lee, sat in a session with Carl Jung, or walked around Walden pond with Thoreau?
Too late for that, but not too late to take notice of Peter Ralston. His creativity, commitment, and clarity shine through his teachings as he articulates higher principles based on direct experience and piercing insight. A superlative martial artist and caring teacher, he has been to the mountaintop and bathed in the underground spring of Being."

"Cheng Hsin has changed my life. I'm not afraid to be afraid anymore, wow! I can rely on the Cheng Hsin principles to teach myself what to do. In short, I've learned how to learn. Cheng Hsin's consciousness work has changed my world around. I'm living more consciously than I ever had before and enjoying every bit of my life.
Rather than being taught a whole new set of rules to live by, I was showed a set of tools and all I needed to do was to investigate, stay honest, contemplate and keep on going from there. The more I do, the more I learn and the deeper I go."
