I Make choices in
LlFE. As I choose to be aware of my divine self I am opened to a vast
variety of possibilities for my expression here on Earth. Since I like
my-self it is an easy matter of selection for me to go to the inner
flame and know my path of being myself and having fun in this lifetime.
During the October 2003
Master Training Conscious-ness Seminar
in
Monte Bré, Locarno, Switzerland participants learned "how to dive into
Absolute" and arrive
at an awareness of their divine self.
I
was privileged to give this remarkable seminar to an outstanding group
of spiritual prodigy adepts who tuned-in quickly and accurately to be
alert to the composition of the divine within. Skilled at letting go of
all outer symbolism they turned within with great intuitiveness and
laughter to realize who and what they are.
Our intention was to have a silent seminar with vegetarian meals.
However, after the first portion of the day it was obvious that the
sparkle of joy within each aspirant was so great they "had" to be able
to speak. So speak they did, with laughter and intuitive sharing, a
vital and enthusiastic group of men and women including: Claudio
Waldmeier, Monica Egli, Ellen Jermini, Adriane Meyer-Bessat, Beatrice
Vogel, Karen Houssine, Herbert Marty, Rösli In-Albon, Irene Merkle,
Silvia Moström and Daniela Ferrari. Dr Jermini was the interpreter into
German from English.
Each morning from Sunday to Sunday they arose at 2:30 to be ready for
the 3 - 6 three-hour-meditations. Sitting on the floor awake and alert
each master trainee participated fully with the initial hour singing
I am God, God I am. After a short pause concluding the first
hour, I spoke to them for a full hour saying Why Can I Say I Am
God. It was an exciting hour. The group inspired me to wax
eloquent with "imaginative reasons" I could say I am god. Every mind was
illumined with new ways to express their godship. Each one was uplifted
to new heights of inner awareness. It was an exciting daily hour.
Then during the third hour everyone sat peacefully, fully alert and
erect, listening to the divine in them revealing its gifts to them.
There were four "hour" lectures each day; however, the lectures ran to
1½ hours or more plus the discussion which erupted after each lecture.
Before dinner dancing took place with scarves as each person let their
inner gleeful being respond to the music which resounded throughout the
Hotel Monte Bré. Friendships were formed spontaneously between people
who had not known one another before. Each evening was closed with an OM
shared by everyone.
A new theme for each day was: I live in the now, I listen
within in respect, I am #1-unique for me, Discipline is my key word,
Readiness takes no preparation, I select my attitude.
The proprietors of the hotel which had closed for the winter and is kept
open exclusively for our seminar each year were drawn into the charisma
of the group in an amazing manner. They felt the vibrations of
unconditional love and infinite harmony from each participant. They felt
so one with the group they sought to be near us during every moment
without being in the way.
A
special celebration was held for the ordination ceremony for Rev Rösli
In-Albon, Rev Adriane Meyer-Bessat and Rev Karin Houssine as ministers
of the Church of God Unlimited, conferred on them by Dr Beierle,
president of the church.
The seminar concluded with a gala bash with champagne, a fabulous meal
and sharing around the table. As I finished my meal but never my
conversation with my students, the restaurant lights were dimmed. I was
blessed with a view into the reception center where a cake was being
prepared to be served. Atop the cake were three roman candles which when
lit sent sparkling flames to the ceiling of the hotel. Carrying the cake
was the chef Marco Marbach, who with his wife Mariuccia, created the
masterpiece.
The cake was set directly in front of me almost burning my beard. I was
amazed. Figurines were placed on top of the cake diving into a lake with
only their bottoms and legs showing. Their upper torso was into the lake
of
Absolute.
I was pictured in frosting sculpture standing there in my swim trunks,
arms folded, observing them with my google blue eyes looking on in
delight.
Joy is boundless when the heart is filled with unconditional love and a
sense of inner peace. Everything is possible to anyone who takes the
time to affirm daily and often: I am peace!
With
Dr Stefan
Strässle in-terpreting, we held several super seminars in Bern
Switzerland prepared by the Rev Rösli In-Albon. The group was so
entranced with the Saturday lectures, What if I AM god!
they all came Sunday too for the seminar titled: How I heal
myself. I gave everyone the technique of realizing they live in
an energy body which through their visualization, their thoughts, their
loving, their stroking and their utilization of a new cause reflects
back to them their choice.
Two Basel Switzerland seminars were held. The first was a meeting of the
UNI students in Europe at the home of the Rev Monica Egli with Dr
Strässle interpreting. Also present were guests of the UNI. One
17-year-old Raphael was the son of Monica's husband's business partner.
Reflec-ting the others, he was so intently interested he noticed when I
had neglected to turn on my recorder and with courtesy reminded me. With
Rev Egli interpreting the second evening magic took place with the
participants as they were illumined by their own inner awareness.
Shortly we were off to Herisau Switzerland for our day seminar at the
Cura Centrum of Gerd and Anna Braun. Gerd is a student of the UNI and
offers his center for seminars each year to the school. My topic,
To Live In Peace Within Yourself was attentively shared.
Many new faces were in the audience, eager to know more about the UNI.
A highlight of the seminar was the visit from Hildegard
and Alfred Veh of Munich who came purposefully to celebrate their 50th
wedding anni-versary with us. They have been students of the seminars of
Dr Beierle for more than 20 years.
The lovely snowcapped mountains of Locarno Switzerland and the alpine
mountains were awe inspiring for those of us who did not live in such a
naturally beautiful setting. The hillsides invited investigation and
those at the seminar in Monte Bré took the times of pause and before bed
and before arising as a meditative time to soak up these pristine
glades.
The
Ferrari family
invited Ellen and me to enjoy the day with them and be there overnight
before our trip to Lugano for sharing with Ellen's children Diego
Jermini and Mariella Ar-noldi and their families.
With Daniela, Gian-pietro, Giada, Giordano, their dog Tex and two cats
we had a superior time together in their lovely home high on the
mountains overlooking Lake Locarno. The entire front of the four-story
home is sheathed in glass. For lunch we took their boat out to an island
restaurant, Isole Brissogo, in the middle of the lake. We spent quality
time with the entire family and have developed a deep oneness with them.
"Our home is yours," Daniela assured us inviting us to return soon again
and stay longer.
Daniela and Gianpietro drove us to Lugano. There we were greeted by the
Arnoldi family and friends. An intensive several days were spent
lovingly with Diego, Lorenza, Giacomo and their dog Lilly; Mariella's
family of Marcello, Mattia, Martino, Micaela and Melissa held us in
their arms wishing us never to leave. Daddy Massimo showed us his office
for his firm Lifeware where his crew creates software for organizations
having unusual needs such as banks and life insurance companies for
intensive data base operations.
I
visited with UNI student Rev Christina Nussbaum and her friend Hängle
Frey in their home and met his two children, Natascha and Michel. They
hosted me to a great dinner and a great tour of Lake Zurich in a boat
they had handcrafted themselves. It was an absolutely perfect sharing
time.
I
visited with Dr Irene Merkle to visit her home and meet her friend Jürg.
Then we visited with her mother Lydia in a rest home. It was a fabulous
meeting as Lydia and I had a great discussion.
We
met with Willi, the adopted son of Martin, son of Gertrud, over dinner.
The 16-year-old boy having moved from Cameroon in the past two years was
a truly deep metaphysical thinker. It was inspiring to talk with him
about his philosophy—so like mine.
Once again we were in Ebmatingen Switzerland at the home of our European
UNI director Rev Gertrud Suter, always a most precious host. The last
evening we had a party in a nearby restaurant as our UNI students bid us
farewell until they see us on campus in California for our Christmas
seminar.
Our annual trips around the world are exciting, informative, revealing
and magical. We meet so many new people and those we have met before and
those who are students it is a never ending adventure. Our trips to
Africa especially are stimulating because of the innocent enthusiasm of
our friends there. Life is wonderful. Life is filled with newness every
moment. There is no yesterday for them nor tomorrow. They live in the
present with such nowness that everything is beautiful and eternally
fulfilling. Obviously I love my treks about the world and will enjoy
them always in the now, as my African friends teach me, with an innocent
enthusiasm which is never ending.
