Deeper Still – 2027 Course Outline

Deeper Still Advanced Teacher Training Course Outline

Welcome, my beloved teachers!

I am so honored that you have chosen to immerse in my combined Level II Mantras & Sacred Sounds Enrichment Program and Level III Deeper Still Advanced Teacher Training!!

We’ll start the journey together with our first webinar on November 29, 2026 and our first official lesson that day as well. As with your Level I training, this training includes online dashboard lessons, weekly online webinars/classes, study group connections, readings, and a Virtual In-residence Immersion on February 11-13, 2027 – all designed as a transformative journey into the power of mantras and a deeper exploration of ancient wisdom teachings.

Since I first offered Deeper Still as an advanced training in 2015, over 200 of your fellow teachers have paved the way, immersed themselves, and become the most studied members of the SweetSpot Community.

This training continues where your initial teacher training left off with deeper, more expansive readings, learning to give personal Nakshatra mantras, lessons that provoke even deeper explorations, and an even deeper end game. After these 10 sweet weeks together, you will have over 435 total certification hours!!

During our ten weeks together we will build on the established practices and the knowledge you have integrated from your Masters of Wisdom & Meditation Teacher Training with an exploration of ancient and modern mantras, the transformative power of chant, ceremony, yoga and meditation, and Nakshatra birthSTAR mantra meditation.

During our 10 weeks, we’ll:
  • Discuss & study mantra – history; types of mantras; sources; Nakshatras
  • Learn the sacred ceremony for presenting personal Nakshatra mantras
  • Practice silence & listening to our inner voice
  • Compare mindfulness and mantra
  • Deepen your connection to the teachings
  • Spend more time studying with your tribe
  • Take your teaching and your business to a higher plane
  • Learn the sacred ceremony of presenting a personal mantra to your students
  • Enhance your own practice
  • Take your understanding to an even deeper state
  • Join the exclusive inner circle of birthSTAR mantra teachers graduates, comprised of some of the most studied members of the SweetSpot Community.

Schedule and Flow of Content

Online Training & Schedule

We will have weekly LIVE online group video webinars over the course of the training (Sundays from 9-10:30 am PT), and these will be video-recorded for those who choose to revisit the weekly Zoom classes or for those whose schedules conflict with the live conversation.

As we plan ahead, mark your calendar for ourDeeper Still Immersion  & Graduation sessions from February 11-13, 2027. We will create sacred virtual “retreat-like” space and spend our days connecting, learning, practicing, honing our skills, and showing up as our best versions. And of course, on February 13 we will wrap up with your certification ceremony and celebration!

Also, as part of the course curriculum, you have a small, curated reading list to immerse in, will receive weekly lessons through the exclusive online Deeper Still Advanced Training dashboard, and will further develop your skills through hands-on practice and hand-in assignments to help you develop your comfort level with the Nakshatra birthSTAR mantra ceremony. You will have the opportunity to demonstrate that:

  • you are able to sing the Shanti mantra (you will be provided with the audio); and,
  • you can teach mantras following our personal mantra ceremony script (which we will provide to you for familiarization & memorization).
Weekly Online Classes & Lessons

Our first webinar will be on Sunday, November 29 from 9-10:30 am PT and we will meet every Sunday at the same time during the training. Prior to the training start date, you will receive access to the online Deeper Still Advanced Teacher Training dashboard, and we will also connect as a tribe through a private Deeper Still Facebook Page.

The same principle applies for exploring and absorbing the gems in your required reading list!

Troubleshooting

If you have difficulty logging in or seeing the new weekly lesson on your dashboard, it usually means there is a problem with your device or web browser. Here are some steps to take before emailing support:

  2. Ensure that your device (laptop, desktop, mobile device) is properly updated with the latest software. 
  3. Power down your device entirely, wait 30 seconds, then power it on. This often forces your device to automatically update its applications depending on your device settings.

  2. Be sure your browser software is up-to-date – a quick way to do this is to power off your computer completely; wait a few minutes; power it on; and hopefully your computer settings are set to automatic updates.

  3. Try a different browser.

Submitting Assignments to Dropbox

We have created dedicated dropbox links for each assignment to submit. The link will be included in the relevant week’s lesson. Please ensure that your assignments are submitted on time, and that the file name identifies the assignment as yours with your name and assignment title,.

Scheduling a 1:1 with davidji

Your completed teacher training questionnaire is required before you can schedule your 1:1. Once received, you will be sent a link to sign up for a 30-minute video call with davidji.

Sessions are available on first come-first-serve basis. Once the first round of sessions fill up we will identify a second round of time slots for those who miss the first round.

Please be sure you make a note of your schedule time, arrive on time, and test zoom in advance of your session so there are no technical glitches. We will set aside this special time for you in davidji’s busy schedule, and we ask that you make every effort to be on time.

Joining Webinars

If you have trouble accessing the webinars, please refer to the ZOOM Q&As below, or visit the ZOOM help section of their website for information and advice. Getting Started Videos

What are the optimum computer requirements for using Zoom?

Internet Speed

  • For best results, an internet connection speed of 10mbps or higher is preferred (test your speed here)
    • A slower connection of 5mbps or higher should work, but video quality may be low
  • If experiencing poor video or audio quality while using wifi, try a wired Ethernet connection — that is, a cable directly from your modem or router to your computer

Computer Hardware

  • A Windows, Mac or Linux computer produced within the last 5 years
  • A working internal microphone, or a dedicated stand-alone microphone separate from the computer
  • A working built-in camera, or a stand-alone camera such as a Logitech webcam
  • Need more help? View Getting Started on Windows and Mac

Mobile Devices

Full technical details are available at Zoom’s website.

How do I find out my internet connection speed?
Visit www.speedtest.net and click Go.

How do I turn my video on or off?
Click the Video icon (shaped like a camera) in the lower left corner of the Zoom screen. If you turn your video off, you will still be able to hear the audio portion of the event but the other participants won’t be able to see you. To become visible onscreen again, click the icon again to turn on your camera.

How do I change my view of the speaker?
Click on the icon in the upper right hand corner of the Zoom screen to toggle between Speaker View and Gallery View. Speaker view allows you to see the person that is speaking as a larger image and rotates with whoever has the floor. Gallery View allows you to see one large view with up to 25 smaller screens of your fellow participants.

My video or camera isn’t working
Troubleshoot your video issue using Zoom’s video/camera help guide.

My audio isn’t working

Teacher Training – Welcome Letter Feb 2027

masters of wisdom and meditation teacher training program banner

Hello Spiritual Warrior!

Welcome to the “official” start of your Masters of Wisdom and Meditation Certification with me! I’m so happy that we are on this journey together.

This is a meditation teacher training like no other. It’s structured to guide you through a well-thought-out process of learning and transformation, while also offering the flexibility of a self-paced and self-directed timeline for readings, lessons, group interaction and assignments each week. The more you engage over the next 16 weeks, the more you will get out of it.

Read on, then log in to your davidji Meditation Academy online dashboard each week using this link. You can sign in using your email address and the password you set when you enrolled. Once you are logged in, click on “My Online Courses” to access the introductory tools you need to GET READY!!!

We start with our first group webinar on Sunday, February 28, 2027 at 9:00 am PT and our first lesson will populate in the dashboard for you that day as well. In the meantime, please spend some time familiarizing yourself with the online dashboard, dive into the required reading, spend some quality time with the intake questionnaire and submit that along with the teacher training agreement forms prior to our training start. By early February we will also send you an invite for a private Facebook group set up exclusively for you and your fellow teachers-in-training.

I’ve laid this training out very carefully to introduce you to the most profound Masters of our time in many different disciplines. Together, we will flow through a process that will: deeply infuse you with these timeless wisdom teachings; help you cultivate a powerful daily practice; and, instill in you the confidence to comfortably share these teachings with others. The key to becoming a Master of these teachings is making an internal shift that transforms your intellectual knowledge into inner wisdom.

We will work together over the next several months to integrate the teachings into your lives so you can infuse the wisdom in a practical way at the level of the soul, and then share it with the world through your personal practice.

This Teacher Training involves immersing deeply in some required core reading, regular lessons we will practice along the way, some assignments, group interaction (with multiple ways to connect, including group video webinars each week, a private Facebook page and study groups), and a final paper due at the end of the training.

I’ll be supporting you every step of the way, as will Nancy Gustavsson, my Director of Training & Development. Together with you, over these next four months our magnificent posse will individually and collectively peel away layers, absorb timeless wisdom and awaken to our best versions.

During the training, reach out to either of us anytime by email at info@davidji.com or nancy@davidji.com or through the Private Group Facebook page. Note: if you hit “reply” to this email, it will go to our Customer Support team at teamdavidji@davidji.com.

The Online Dashboard and Your Weekly Lessons

To get to your weekly lessons, please go here to log in, use your username and password, (write it down in a safe place), and log in anytime you wish to access the lessons. You will receive an email prompting you at the beginning of each week when your new lesson is available. Plan to set aside some time each Sunday to log in and review the week’s lesson.

We have found that sometimes various email accounts seem to be finicky about rejecting emails from people not in your address book. To make sure you receive your weekly email and other emails from us, please make sure you whitelist our email addresses by adding info@davidji.com, nancy@davidji.com, teachertraining@davidji.com, and teamdavidji@davidji.com to your address book as approved senders. If you still do not see your weekly email each Sunday, please check your spam/junk folder and if it is not there either, please be sure to let Nancy know and we will resend it to you.

Webinars

As mentioned above, we will hold our first webinar on Sunday, February 28, 2027 starting at 9:00 am PST. Mark your calendar, and check your email or the online dashboard for the webinar information and link for logging in. The webinars are great opportunities to ask questions, go deeper into philosophy, and share your challenges and triumphs.

If you are unable to attend live – don’t worry. We will post the recording for you within 24 hours after the session so you may view it at a more convenient time. But I encourage you to attend the webinars if you can. If you need to arrive late or leave early, it’s okay.

Connecting with Our Teacher Training Tribe

We will create a PRIVATE Facebook group two weeks prior to the training start, specifically for students in your Teacher Training class! Once you receive your invite, request approval to join and start introducing yourself to your fellow teachers-in-training.

I encourage you to share with each other as much as feels comfortable. Again, my direct email is info@davidji.com ; Nancy’s is nancy@davidji.com. Please reach out to us throughout the process with any questions, comments, insights, or revelations.

I can’t wait to get started with you! Log into the davidji Meditation Academy dashboard and your Online Account now and journey with us….

Peace. -davidji
