INTO THE SILENCE, STILLNESS & TRANSPARENCY
Residential
25th - 31st August, 2018
Seymour - Victoria, Australia
Leaders: Ken and Elizabeth Mellor
Workshop Content
There are changes to the primary processes of the workshop this year. They are fundamental. They catalyse, strengthen, and expand the already proven value of the steps as they were previously.
In the presence of Life Itself we experience utter silence, stillness and transparency. In Life we can discover our Selves as we never have before. The hunger or thirst to do this is powerful in everyone for we all know that our completion lies here in our Selves. We know that we need to 'go in' as 'deeply' as possible, that we need to connect with the Source of Life within.
The Process
The way to go in, or up, or to be as we need to be, is by witnessing, by watching, by listening to, by feeling, by living all experiences. Many of them are beautiful beyond expression. Many may also include the layers of inhibition that we developed over the years, layers that limit our direct experience of our own Beings; and some may be very uncomfortable, or even excruciating.
It is perhaps obvious that to succeed in such a profound endeavour, we need to have sufficient time for both the exploration and the awakening to occur. Perhaps it is also obvious that the way we live our daily lives often makes this difficult. The seven days of the workshop are designed to maximise the time available for fulfilling the above purposes.
The extended time enables us to practise silent cultivation of personal awareness and oneness, to experience ourselves and our Selves with increasing intensity and clarity. It also enables us to pass through a series of inhibiting thresholds to our awareness that our normal lifestyles simply don’t allow enough time for us to complete.
Come and join us. Many people leave at the end of this workshop having made profound changes. (This year's will be the twelfth.) And many have returned year after year to keep expanding and awakening so they can live their lives with ongoing grace, love and presence.
LEADERS
Ken and Elizabeth Mellor have years of international experience running communities and leading workshops that combine meditative practices with personal growth strategies. They are inspiring spiritual masters and mentors. Always down to earth, they are fun and practical. People usually feel comfortable and safe when with them to open up to the transcendent, to explore their lives in depth, to make decisions that make their lives easier, and to commit to using their new understanding to expand and awaken.
Both are Masters of Meditation, Reiki Masters, and spiritual mentors. They have extensive experience in working with people from many different backgrounds. Ken is also a psychotherapist and trainer of psychotherapists, and Elizabeth is a trained rehabilitation counsellor and critical incident stress management practitioner.
They were both recently recognised for their many accomplishments by being accepted for membership of ATMA (The Australian Teachers of Meditation Association) in the personal development, medical and spiritual areas of living and teaching. Both are also registered social workers and members of the Australian Association of Social Workers.
