Accellerating forward movement!

Posted on Nov 7th, 2006 by Jeff : Director of Education Jeff
It has been a few weeks since my last course update. Since then I have completed three business seminars and started teaching the second part of the introduction to Evolutionary Enlightenment course with Katherine Miller. At the same time 28 sections of part 1 of the course are in midstream all over the world and the potential from all that teaching is exploding!

First the business seminars – wow, that was tough – I definitely entered a new arena and found that things that I was taking for granted just can’t be taken for granted. All of the people that I met were bright, energetic people, but most of them had little or know spiritual interest and all of them were focused on their professions and careers. I know that I was able to reach some of them with the powerful message of what our place as awakening humans is in an evolving cosmos, but I am sure that I learned more than anyone else. As a result of these seminars I have completely redone my presentation to better reflect the interests and attitudes of the corporate world. One of the companies that invited me to speak has invited me back next week and wants a proposal for a long term education program for their employees and there are two other companies interested in having me speak. So it is barely begun, but I know there is potential here for much more.

At the same time about 12 of our fall courses have already completed all five sessions and they all went outrageously well. The teachers who taught them have evolved through the experience and from everything I have heard they all had a tremendously powerful effect on their students. For those who have finished, their focus is shifting to fanning the interest of the students that now see them as their initial connection to this work, and looking ahead to planning and organizing winter and spring courses. We have another 16 course currently running or about to start, so more good things are on the way.

In a few weeks I will be doing another teacher training and bringing 25 more teachers into what is becoming a movement in consciousness. That will make a total of fifty trained teachers who will be teaching in the fall.

What I am seeing in all of this is REAL potential to push forward the revolution in consciousness and culture that the teaching of Evolutionary Enlightenment is dedicated to creating. It seems so clear to me that helping people learn about their potential to forward the evolution of the cosmos and then putting them in a position to help others in exactly the same way, is a revolution!

As I was teaching class with Katherine last week on the topic of Purity of Motive and Integrity in Action I was profoundly moved by the potential that we actually do have to reshape the direction of the future. Everyone in the room was enlivened by the potential to work together – each person following the irresistible urge to develop themselves and the world and then discovering together what it means to meet in a higher level of awareness! It was thrilling – but only because it was so real. How can we fail if we are all focused on our own evolution and the evolution of the whole, it has to happen….

Much more to come….
Stay tuned…

Bravo Jeff … on all fronts!  As one who is so fortunate to be attending the ee course with you and Katherine, and to be heading into the teacher training course in a few weeks, I'm experiencing an overwhelming sense of excitement for the future.  Everything within the material of the teachings is making more and more sense (I didn't think it was possible) and everything is more alive, as I give more attention to consciousness and take more action, it is more clear than ever, that there is only this One Consciousness to care about!  Discovering we are the evolutionary process is quite a mind blowing event and to begin to recognize that this is literally the bare beginnings, kind of like the first species to have sight for the first time … it's a bit fuzzy, overwhelming, and incredibly exciting!

Recently I've been attending a few different network meetings here in Berkshire County, and there is such a positive rumbling of change that is quite tangible.  I'm really starting to get the sense of the preciousness of these teachings in a way that expands way outside my own interest and evolution.  And just last night as I attended one of these meetings, it was clear that the main speaker, whose topic was on immigrantion in Berkshire County, came from such a deep place of authenticity and globalcentric perspective … we were all riveted and deeply moved.  I think because of our one human response that was no different from the one person's authentic experience.  It was genderless, raceless, ageless … boundryless.  And what was interesting was that I was aware that not everyone was aware of a much bigger view than nation-centric.   I became aware of the significance to what we were all responding to, which is so much more than us as individuals, and how the sense of urgency enveloped me in the midst of this presentation … and how I could not take this moment, or any other moment for granted.  I became acutely aware of every retreat with Andrew, every ee class, every meditation, every interaction, every relationship … is SO important and only for evolution.  And in this room full of human potential from all walks of life, our hearts opened to this One Thing Happening, this one conversation with our attention on humanity … it wasn't a thought of, “Some day I'd like to evolve for consciousness when I feel like it..”  It was, “This life has purpose, meaning and value NOW and Consciousness is evolving as you!  Get moving!!”
