"Each moment of perception can potentially be experienced as a moment of
pure perception - experience not yet mediated through discursive thought
and conceptual process. These moments are not yet conditioned by hope and
fear, by our opinions, desires and beliefs. This immediate awareness of pure
perception is "without choice, without demand, without anxiety".
"Moments of pure perception are experiences of beauty expressed through
specific details. If you are in any type of service to others, or in a helping
profession; then it is our duty to notice deeply, the true beauty in "other."
This brings out the truth of "other". Through such perception alone, our
clients, friends, and loved ones, blossom. It all begins with moments of pure
perception with whatever is happening in the Moment..,..INCLUDING &
ALLOWING whatever is happening with our selves and our surroundings.
"The Moment is deepened by noticing the details that call to us - any taste, any
sight, any sound, any sensation, (physical or emotional). These moments are
portals to the Truth behind all forms and experiences. We get in touch with
the TRUE Beauty within ourselves and cannot help but recognize IT in others.
This is the call of the AWAKENED. It is the recognition and embodiment of the
ultimate healer within us all.
"By truly opening to these details, we can clearly listen to the response of our heart. We discover our
moment-to-moment, day-to-day direction. Thus we follow our heart, and in ever more clear measure/strength/ and
commitment. Unconditional joy and freedom dawns in more moments while permeating our work, our relations, and
our immediate and global environments.
"Not only is our heart the source of our direction in life, it is the source of our confidence. It is the source of
guidance that ALWAYS unfolds the best and most aliveness in any situation; and in our service to the others. Soul
Passion guides your days/ moments/ your Life!
"The Retreat will help you experience pure perception and then have that meet the parts of you that have been
anchored in conditioned responses. The softening and deep opening that occurs is immensely regenerative to you;
and opens the doors to repeat the process on your own, in more situations where you were previously unable.
"Because this Retreat is a direct experience of personal navigation of consciousness into Presence while engaging
with "other", it is also very helpful in bringing your awakening into your active life, and your unique way of unfolding
your service to others.
"The gifts of the retreat will have a permanent effect on the way you meet yourself and others daily. You will find the
ability to access the Now, with its immense gifts of unconditioned mind and true love, greatly enhanced.
"YOU NEED NOT HAVE ANY MEDITATION EXPERIENCE OR MAY EVEN HAVE TRIED IT BEFORE AND HAD DIFFICULTY OR
EVEN DISLIKED IT. ALL ARE WELCOMED HERE."
The group is limited to 14 so personal attention can be given to all.
