everyone
will
give
their
family
/
friends
the

in
case
someone
would
need

get
ahold

be
a
perfect
time
to
let
them
know
that
you
will
have
your

phone
turned
off
for
a
lot
of
your
time
away,
and
that
you
appreciate

2020 RETREAT CALENDAR
AWARENESS OF PRESENCE
Based
on
principles
taught
by
Eckhart
Tolle
(
The
Power
of
Now
and
A
New
Earth
),
and
(Paul
Ferrini’s)
Love
Without
Conditions,
Reflections
of
the
Christ
Mind,
we
will
enjoy
catching
and
then
Observing
(without
criticism
or
judgement) the egoic mind
in ourselves
whenever it may surface.
As
you
may
know,
or
at
least
may
consider,
our
egoic
mind
was
born
from
a
(false)
belief
in
our
being
separate
from
one
another
and
from
God
(or
whatever
“name”
you
refer
to
as
your
Divine
Presence).
The
egoic
mind
thinks incessantly, and it will find fault with self, other people, and situations.
The
egoic
mind
will
pretend
that
it
is
you,
and
depending
upon
your
degree
of
awakeness, you may identify with it to some extent.
You are not your ego thoughts. You are not your ego mind.
The
practice
of
observing
egoic
thoughts
and
reactions,
coupled
with
the
realization
that
these
are
merely
the
workings
of
a
false
belief
system,
is
a
spiritual
practice
of
profound
significance.
Simply
being
aware
is
all
that
is
required for transformation to occur.
The
benefit
of
such
a
spiritual
endeavour
is
that
the
practice
of
it
quickly
and
easily
transforms
the
egoic
mind
into
Peace.
You
then
live
in
Awareness
of
the
Presence
within
yourself,
others,
and
all
things.
Therefore,
you
live
in
a
state
of Peace and Love. You enter the kingdom of heaven, here on earth.
“
Know
ye
first
the
kingdom
of
heaven,
and
all
things
will
be
added
unto
you.” “The kingdom of heaven is within you.”
