News from UNACHO Dear fellow travellers on the Path, Once again some lines to keep you in the picture about how the work has been shared here in UNACHO over the last weeks and what is planned to happen throughout the year here in UNACHO as well as in the Energy Field. We had a deep, profound & beautiful Music & Silence seminar happening here at the end of January. In these seminars we all focus together on the exploration of who and what we are through being in silence with sometimes music added. The process is asking you to [...]

Letter to The Energy Field Wishing you all a joyous 2020 full of Love & Light. Here in UNACHO we had a very peaceful & harmonious Christmastime in a small circle which was wonderful to have. After these turbulent & emotional weeks and months, the stillness and peacefulness which descended was more than welcome. So, the first Christmas without Michael’s physical presence was not, as I had feared, like falling into a dark hole filled with sadness and feeling lost. Rather the opposite happened – feeling him strongly with & in me, and even more powerfully the more I could [...]

When this energy that I bring moves in you, take the step of not being aware of it merely but to be it, or let it be you. So though we get the impression that it's coming from outside and we do what we can to invite it and allow it and even join it, in fact that energy which seems alien and from outside is in you. And the state of enlightenment is when you become it whenever it offers itself to you, and you join it. That brings a state of the infinite and the beyond and the [...]

A Letter to the Energy Field Beloved Companions on the Path, So many times in these past days, I have been asked, “How are you?” My answer was usually, I am … with all which is there … and there is deep grief, tears, despair, emptiness, stillness, a smile, a feeling of deep peace & relief, seeing & sensing a strong white light … and so often sitting in silence I can just feel Michael with me and in me … We have had such intense weeks and months and several times I had the intention to write to you [...]

12th of November, 2019. Beloved Wild Goose Energyfield, Last night, at 3:17 AM, Michael left this world for the Other Shore. Here, so much sorrow. And a deep sense of loss. And yet the timing of his death seemed to be of his choosing. It was a bright, full moon - a significant, powerful time - and of course Michael's Sannyas name, Somendra, means Lord of the Full Moon. And his close family had all gathered together that very evening at UNACHO. Recent days have at times been challenging for Michael, and for many of us connected with him - a [...]

FLOWERS OF LOVE SUMMER FESTIVAL :: A BLOG 31/7 - 4/8 '19 We were 80, including staff (Mishka, Tiago, Akali and I), the most for many a year...Of course back in the late Eighties and early Nineties for the SF & WF we would get twice that number and sometimes 200 and more... Still, the group room there, Buddha Hall, was packed, and the Parimal residents had to create lots of space, so that everybody who was in the group could be accommodated there. Our Saranta, who lives and works there, in the organizing of all visiting groups there, writes: [...]

THE LAMPLIGHTERS - END GAME! OPT7 :: A BLOG 20-26/7/19 Abava writes: We were just reading your poem for the Lamplighters - as usual it was spot on and it all came true: Burn your candle bright, Protect it through the night, And then let your light leap To all those who surround you!.... What an amazing training this has been, different to all the others, and this week has been different to any others that we have shared. You set the tone with your introductory talk, 'Who You Are' and we found new depths in the classic meditations, for [...]

DYNAMIC STILLNESS MOVING AROUND VIENNA :: A BLOG 5-7/7/19 We were a remarkable collectivity group of 40, participants from the Eighties, Nineties, Zeros and so on and even a sannyasin who was with me in my own sannyasin days in Brussels in the very early Eighties, amongst them old friends not seen for some years, plus all those who joined the WGC there in Vienna last year... And also Mishora, first time for some years - he was a member of the WG Team for 4 years back in the late Nineties and into the next. (At dinnertime together on [...]

TREES & RIVERS :: A BLOG 21-23/6/19 Here we were, for this last installment, at home here in UNACHO. Missing, unfortunately, was Saranda, so ill now that she can barely stand, let alone travel to join us here. We missed her - and I certainly did! - and somehow still included her in our time together. Enid also was again absent, too ill she says to travel from England. It's a powerful group, lots of old-timers and regulars, so immediately the room, Extraordinary Space, was a cauldron. Just being in it, even in silence and stillness, was healing for all. [...]
