It's all happening still!!!
I woke up this morning after only four hours of sleep with a strange compulsion to check my email. The message I found has confirmed that everything I thought and hoped could happen as a result of training teachers to present Evolutionary Enlightenment can, is and will happen!
Over the past few days four more of our teacher trainees have begun to teach. Lynn Chavarria taught to a class of 15 in Houston. Dave Gold to 27 in North Carolina, Mike Wombacher to 31 in Berkeley, CA and Sharon Block to a modest 8 in Santa Cruz, CA. The reports that have come back to me have left me feeling all of the joy, excitement, humility, pride and terror of an expectant father. All of these people have been completely successful in communicating the miracle of Evolutionary Enlightenment. Each is finding that they are being moved beyond themselves through the effort of trying to teach what is most close to their own hearts and are moving others likewise.
The message that I mentioned at the start of this post came from a student who was in Sharon’s class and was also a friend of Sharon’s. Nothing fills me with more confidence than Sharon’s outrageous victory. Of all our teacher’s, Sharon had known Andrew Cohen for the least amount of time and was herself somewhat shy and reserved in personality. (In fact, I believe she would have had twice the number of people in her class except that she had trouble promoting herself – I bet she’ll be cured of that now.) I never had any doubt about her, which I told her on the phone a couple of hours before her first class started. I knew that her passion for Evolutionary Enlightenment would be more than enough to make her class fantastic. This is the note I read early this morning from her friend…
Dear Jeff - I had to write and tell you what an experience it was watching Sharon tonight teach the EE Course. I couldn't believe it was Sharon! I literally witnessed a transformation. She taught in such a real and simple way that carried the weight of what she was teaching across to everyone. There were students hanging out talking until way after 9 pm and they all walked her to her car! I still can't quite believe it. It really was beautiful to watch - and all within this incredible context and teaching. We really are creating a revolution. Love, Ana
I didn’t need to read more than that to know that everything was happening. Our teachers are transforming, their students are being touched and we are in fact creating something in consciousness that will have more affect then we can know.
As if this is not enought. Katherine and I (Remember Katherine?) have started to team teach the last few sessions of her course which is proving to be a wonderful expereince for both of us. And we intend to teach together right through the second five classes of the new Introduction to Evolutionary Enlightenment part 2 course that will have its first run through with us.And I spoke with people at both Deutsche Bank and USB yesterday (see my last post for more details) about the Evolutioanry Enlightenment seminars that I will be doing next week at their corporate offices in New York. I was on the phone with the person from Deutsche Bank for about an hour and I now feel completely confident that they are going to be thrilled with what Evolutionary Enlightenment can offer their organization.
Many more of our teachers will be starting soon and I suspect that in about three weeks we will have an international conference call inviting any of the students of any of our teachers (including those of my corporate seminars) to join us in a global discussion about how we want to create the future.
Oh yes, and in two weeks Brian Johnson (the fearless leader of zaadz himself) will be visiting us here in our humble home in the Berkshires and he and I are hoping to be able to speak publicly together, him first about what zaadz is all about and then the two of us about how we are working together to create something outrageous with these courses.
OK, one more. I am reading through the 36 applications that we recieved from people who want to do the next teacher training in December too. So we will have a whole new group of teachers on the ground in the spring!
That is about as much as I can take before my morning coffee.

Wow! My response after reading your blog and all that is happening is a welling up of deep happy emotions when a new life has been born! Congratulations to all! It really is a new life that is emerging out of the depths of Andrew's heart and vision that I think we are now beginning to recognize is our own. And how it is the evolutionary creative impulse awakening in all that we are doing.
Having the privilege to be in Katherine's class, I feel that all the seeds that Andrew has planted are taking root and shape in ways that certainly go beyond my imagination … in everyone - even those who've never met Andrew. There is such a deep positivity and realty of one's passion and committment to evolutionary enlightenment (in this case referring to Katherine and Jeff, but all who've leaped to teach the ee course)… it's beyond catchy! You just want to come together with others and fulfill this heart's desire to move things forward … to grow, to learn, to give … only from the top down! You don't think about leaping because that is all there is!
I can't wait for the next class and all that transpires from all of the classes combined … there's no containing this beautiful humanity coming out of all of this!
Love, Sandra
