The Open Sun Foundation

A non-profit dedicated to spiritual development and the healing of the mind.

One-to-one sessions, written and educational work, and a long-term vision for community.

The Journey

The Open Sun Foundation was created to make sustained spiritual work accessible — to those navigating a turning point in their life, those deepening an existing practice, and those who simply suspect there is more to the inner life than they have yet been given language for. The work draws from many wisdom traditions and is beholden to none. Its aim is simple: to help people meet themselves more honestly, suffer less unnecessarily, and find their own way forward.

To heal one is to heal a part of all.

Our services

  • Individual Sessions

    A space to meet what's actually happening in your life right now. Each session combines spiritual counsel with meditative reading and, where there is an opening for it, facilitated healing and balancing. A written summary follows within a few days.

  • Tailored Programs

    For periods of intensive change or focused inner work. Programs combine weekly or bi-weekly sessions with custom contemplative practices and integration support between meetings. Typically one to four months.

  • Ongoing Mentorship

    A sustained, month-to-month relationship for those committed to long-term inner work — a steady place to return to as the work integrates over time.

The work of one person, supported by many

The Open Sun is the work of Luis Rietti, a former finance professional who left his career in late 2025 to give himself fully to service. His path includes a long arc through several wisdom traditions and a years-long awakening that reorganized his understanding of consciousness and the self. The foundation grew out of that calling and is supported by a small group of advisors who help shape its direction.

Coming soon: Disarming the Mind

Luis is completing his first book, Disarming the Mind: A Guide to Liberation from Mental Suffering — a synthesis of several wisdom traditions, including the Law of One, Jungian psychology, Yoga, Kabbalah, Christian mysticism, and Internal Family Systems, into an original framework for understanding how the mind works and how it can be brought to peace. More information will be shared as publication approaches.


A foundation in its early years

The Open Sun is in its first chapter. The current offerings — individual sessions, programs, written material — are the beginning of a longer arc that includes group retreats, accessible educational content, a network of teachers, and eventually a dedicated space for teaching and community. Sessions for those in financial hardship are subsidized by donor support.
