Spring Retreat
Featuring Regina Dawn Akers, Anne Blanchard and Cyndi Krupp

At the Awakening Together Retreat House in La Veta, Colorado

 

Dyad Retreat

May 15-19

With Anne Blanchard & Cyndi Krupp

This retreat is for everyone interested in an extremely deep experience of self-inquiry, regardless of whether you are new to self-inquiry or you’ve been practicing self-inquiry for years.

Psychologists have discovered that dyads (two people sharing in a structured way) are a powerful way of going deeper within one’s self in order to see that which is beyond one’s daily conscious awareness. At this retreat, we will utilize this same practice for the purpose of awakening.

Retreat Schedule

The retreat will begin on Monday at 9am and end by 3pm on Friday.

Retreat Fee: $500
$50 non-refundable deposit

REGISTRATION CLOSED

Registration closes on May 5th at 5pm ET

3/19/23 Weekly Gathering: “Dropping the Mirror”

Weekly Sunday Gathering with Rev. Regina Dawn Akers

Title: “Dropping the Mirror”

Description: Rev. Regina Dawn Akers shared from her most recent contemplations of the fourth, second, and first principles of God, in which she has come to see the mind (consciousness, perception) as a mirror that, at best, reflects reality. Even then, it stands apart from reality, just as the reflection in a mirror stands apart from what it reflects. The difference between the first principle of God and the other principles of God is there is no mirror with the first principle of God. There is simply reality.

Reading: Glen Ganaway read excerpts from Awake: It’s Your Turn by Angelo Dilullo.

Playsheet Now Available for “City of Angels”

Rev. Kelly Barber created a playsheet for us to use as a guide to contemplating this month’s movie.

City of Angels Playsheet

Rev. Kelly will be facilitating this month’s movie discussion group on Sunday, March 26, 2023, at 8 pm ET/6 pm MT.

City of Angels is a 1998 American romantic fantasy film starring Nicholas Cage and Meg Ryan. It’s a love story between a female doctor (Meg Ryan) and a heavenly angel (Nicholas Cage). When Cage finds out that he can be seen by Ryan, he longs to give up his immortality to become human. Once he becomes human, he realizes the true meaning of love, and with that, the consequences of the fragile nature of life around him.

This movie was chosen for its spiritual themes of how it falls in line with the Four Principals of God teachings, the power of thought, the arrogance of the ego, and the desire for experience. This movie has a beautiful non-judgmental point of view for all of it.

You can find this movie on YouTube, Amazon Prime, and Google Play.

Seven Steps Journal: Out of the Stillness ~ Notice the Concepts (Step Two)

Have you ever wanted to see inside someone else’s mind and heart as they journeyed toward spiritual awakening? Have you ever wondered what obstacles they faced, what inquiries they used, or what insights they experienced? If so, this program is perfect for you. Each week, Regina Dawn Akers shares from her published journal, Out of the Stillness. It was written as a personal journal over 8½ years as she contemplated quotes from spiritual masters and practiced the insight she realized through contemplation. The quotes Regina contemplated were collected by Michael Langford and published in The Seven Steps to Awakening. Both books are used in this program.

Rhoda ~ Living the Undefended Surrender Experiment, “Rest Only”

Listen to the Recording

With humor, love, and open-hearted awareness Rev. Rhoda Makled is exploring her own take on the Surrender Experiment as coined by Michael Singer. Raw, authentic, and faithful she is uncovering the path to living in the undefended Heart.

Rev. Rhoda will dig into topics she is exploring in her life such as what it means to live the experiment of being surrendered. Feeling every feeling and seeing every thought she can, Rhoda will share the journey of studying, journaling, contemplating, being inspired by, and surrendering to Truth. Inspired by so many teachers including those here at Awakening Together, Rhoda will share her contemplations and invites you to come and discuss your experience with your own surrender experiment. This undefended dialogue with Inner Wisdom is just one more way to observe as the self is undone–the intention being to leave space only for awareness of Awareness and release everything that covers Truth.

In this program, Rev. Rhoda will explore the teachings of Michael Singer, Regina Dawn Akers, Paul Hedderman, Roger Castillo, Helen Hamilton, and many more.
