When a loved one and teacher dies it brings a time of awareness and reflection on life's purpose. It made me aware of the need to help others raise their consciousness. it’s the only thing we can take with us. See the big picture, feel it in our body. How we are part of something larger that ourselves. So it felt natural to create a non profit organization for it.
One that would give scholarships for those in need of funds and that would help researchers bring to light the mysteries of universal laws. But then I realized that in any spiritual teaching there is something that is seldom spoken of, written down and that is the personal experience of sharing a space with someone who has a higher level of consciousness and just by being there with an open heart something happens.
This silent transmission is part of the body of oral teachings. And the need to share this experience with others in a casual atmosphere with love and respect for all sentient beings. That is why I'm committed to host once a year such gathering. A space where we can support each other, embrace our diversity, grow and harvest what we have learned so far and pass it on so it won't die with us.
The way to support this vision is by donations and volunteer work.
