"Group work can be helpful for intensifying the light of your presence. A group of people coming together in a state of presence generates a collective energy field of great intensity. It not only raises the degree of presence of each member of the group but also helps to free the collective human consciousness from its current state of mind dominance. This will make the state of presence increasingly more accessible to individuals." Eckhart Tolle
These sessions are based on The Power of Now by Eckhart Tolle, and concurring nondual teachings. The meetings are lead by Jordan and are intended to offer a practical encounter in experiencing The Now and meeting yourself as you are. Being Present Allows You To Experience Your True Nature, Inner Peace and the State of Being Below the Level of Awareness.
How many people attend?
The number varies small to medium and it's always
exactly the right amount.
The Intention
To experience presence. There is
usually a brief teaching which points to presence and how to
experience it more deeply in each moment. Participants are
invited to share their experiences of presence and what has
helped them become more aware. Teachings are shared to
give clarity and answer questions. People are invited to
attend to their own experience in each moment. This is not
about giving advice, developing concepts, or 'talking about'
presence. Instead,
we are focused on bringing awareness to the emotional body,
living from the heart, and dismantling concepts and beliefs that
get in our way. Present moment awareness is not a concept
or an experience - it's a way of being.
What will I get from the
group?
This is about discovering who we essentially are and is not
about enhancing the well-being of our current life situation.
We don't talk about self-improvement, as
the Self is already perfect and complete; or about becoming
healthier or wealthier, as such things relate only to the
physical realm, which is impermanent and fleeting.
On the other hand,
when we turn our vision inward and see our true nature we find
an incredible blessing in all aspects of our lives.
When we learn to live from our unconditioned presence our life
starts to flow. This is a chance to get a taste of our
natural Self.
Share in an opportunity to tune into the present moment in a
field of awareness with other people who have the same
intention. Nothing outside of us can have a more powerful and
lasting impact on how we feel within than developing an
authentic relationship with our Inner Presence.
