Testimonials

“When I emerged from the direct experience of who I am (at the retreat) I started to laugh. All of my worries about the future and my resentments about past hurts seemed, in that moment, very small when compared to the vastness of which I was a part.
In that moment I knew that joy- real joy that does not deny what is hard in our lives- is a choice. Joy finds us when we feel the elation that comes when we know that we belong- to another, to ourselves, to the world, to the Mystery that is larger than ourselves."

"I have been meditating for over 7 years now and never realized until now that I had been using meditation as a medication to avoid myself. Russell's technique that he taught was the piece that I had been missing for many years. I now have a method to accept, integrate and love those parts of myself that I had been pushing away. I feel more at peace with myself than I have ever been before"

—Trevor Williams, Landscaper, Midland, Ontario

 

“It’s like I did 5 years of meditation in one weekend!”

Beth Clark, Yoga and Meditation Teacher,
Kingston, Ontario

 

“This was my first time doing True Awakening -True Being I and found the experience to be unlike any I have ever had. I know that this experience will change my life in ways that are obvious now and in ways that I have yet to discover”

Brenda McMorrow - Singer/Songwriter, Guelph, Ontario

I Think We Should All Have a Dogma-free Zone

Dogma-free zone

I think we should all have a dogma-free zone.

Somewhere in our world.

A place:

Where we can think our own thoughts and listen to own our voice.

Where all beliefs are considered as assumptions until we can directly experience them for ourselves

Where the "truth" is not considered a four-letter word

A guru-free zone:

Where we can bow down to ourselves and honour our own wisdom

Where buddhists have to grow their hair really long and

All christians, hundus, jews, sihks have to hang-up their sacred hats

before they enter

(and when they leave have to put on someone else's hat)

A place where fundamentalists if they enter will explode from their own inner bombast

A spiritual name-free zone:

Where we can pretend we are Popeye and say "I am what I am" and totally accept ourselves

Where we can look in the mirror without fear and see total magnificence

A place where, when everything seems to be falling apart we can let go

and let it fall into place

Where we can be okay about not knowing anything

and allow ourselves to experience everything...

exactly the way it is

That would be a great place.

I think we all should start by writing "Dogma-free zone" on a sticker

Slap it on our forehead and look at each other...

Then laugh our heads off!

A fat man and a skinny man were arguing about who was the more polite. The skinny man said he was more polite because he always tipped his hat to ladies. But the fat man knew he was more courteous because, whenever he got up cheap jordan and offered his seat, two ladies could sit down.
