"This is a cosmic yet practical teaching – It is a teaching that will take humanity into a whole new domain of higher potentials and expressions – beyond all norms, conditionings and limitations, to manifest authentically real forms in all areas of life"
Filmed on day six of the twelve day retreat, this impassioned clip offers an experience of the profound call to live authentically as consciousness in everyday life that was the constant refrain of Marah 2010.
Many of the retreat's satsangs are being produced as a series of DVDs so that the power of this retreat reaches beyond it's length...

Quotes and Photos
'The real you exists in the deep and your knowing of that is high. The deep and the high have to come down onto this vertical plane and meet at the core of our heart. Right at the core of where they meet is a golden spark- that golden spark is the real you. It is one with the pulse that creates the whole universe and that pulse came out of the unknowable, out of pure awareness. That pulse is the ocean of awareness wanting to know the depth and power of the ocean, the wideness of the expression of the ocean. The only way it can do that is to give it infinite form.'
'Through The Form we will discover the multi-dimensional reality that pre-exists actuality and actually has already created these vehicles. Everyone has been prepared for higher experience. There is only one thing that stands in its way and it is this. It is for you to choose the higher reality over and above the choice of the old patterns still embedded in this light of the manifest universe.'
'Does the one who is listening, understand your relationship? Does the one who is listening, really understand the meaning of your life? Is the one who is listening, still identifying with outside forces? With mental, emotional, wilful, physical forces? Or is the one who is listening ready and committed to turn into true life?Real life, real love, real being and its expression as one Self, with its potential to manifest as a entire culture of beings on a planet called Earth.'
'Your body is a flowing vehicle of higher potential already acting, already manifesting but on an unconscious level. It is conscious of the human dilemma of pain and suffering and limitation, conscious of egoity still playing its patterned existence but unconscious of how deep the ego goes - deep though limited and unconscious of how profound one is. You are, I am, so profoundly deep. That is our dilemma to discover each moment within the movement of our lives. But you, we, can literally bring up through the body a more profound connection to source. It is there; it has to be discovered.'
'Your unconscious separate sense of self creates distortion for all beings.'
'Be willing to experience the whole field of human activity and not step back into egoity but step forward into life. That is The Form; forward into life, forward into light, forward into truth, forward onto what is new, forward into a profound space to create the new.'
'You are learning to not be a robot. You are learning to allow flow and when you are learning to allow flow, ‘This Place’ is going to flush out what refuses to flow.'
'When movement is unrelated to our personal sense of self we seem to be able to embody a flow of depth easily. But when movement becomes our identifiable life and our relationship with ‘other’ we tend to automatically lose our connection to one Self. We start to work out how we want to be with that person, with all its conditioning, because we seem to have preferences when it comes to how to relate one love with all beings. This is good. It puts an emphasis on The Form because in the practice we can all open up to profound states - profound emptiness, pure consciousness, profound movement, pure love as movement embodied but can we relate that in our ordinary, everyday lives with other.'
