Stillpoint Silent Retreats are about the ageless Mystical Path of Union with God. StillPoint Silent Retreats are designed to give you the experience of your true and Innermost Self. It is experiential and practical. You will be given very simple and effective techniques to retain this state of Living Silence while being in the intense activity of everyday life. It is a transformative experience that is natural and spontaneous. It is of the Mystical Feminine principle of "relaxing and releasing tension" to receive, in contrast to the masculine principle of "striving to attain". It brings us to the conscious awareness of who we truly are – a unique and individual aspect of Divinity Itself! It is an evolutionary expansion of our identity introducing us to the Inner State of Grace, which is the home and source of all Love, Peace, Wisdom and Joy.

Mystical Spirituality

Over the years, many of us have left traditional religion searching for something that is bigger than we are; something that gives meaning and fulfillment in a world of continuous change and disappointment. The great saints and philosophers of both East and West have repeatedly told us that what we are looking for is hidden deep within. It is the "pearl of great price", or "the Kingdom of Heaven which is within." They have taught that nothing short of the direct experience of God will ever fill our needs for wholeness, fulfillment, joy, and love beyond measure.

Essence Takes Form
Form Differentiates
Then Returns To Essence

"The desire of Spirit to enjoy its singular nature in many forms, spawns this drama of the universal cosmic dream. Here we know Creation as an act of going out from Source, a descent to matter. And Spiritual Evolution is, in fact, the reversal of the creation process - the ascent to Source".

Mystical Spirituality is the Essence
Of all religions and spiritual traditions.

All forms, from subatomic particles to universes, are programmed to follow sequentially three primary commands: go forth and experience; become all you can be; and come back Home. StillPoint Silent Retreats is about introducing the principles and methods of the Mystical Path of Coming Home; a path which transcends "age", dogma, religion, culture and personal ego.

This path transcends the limited ego's desire to create personal reality.
And fulfills the soul's destiny to know and become one with Ultimate Reality.

It is about experiencing the permanent fulfillment and bliss of the Soul, in place of the transitory pleasures and pains of the limited ego self.

Silence Structures Consciousness

It is about moving the point of identification from "I am the body, mind, and senses" to "I am the Inner Self" who is experiencing through "the body, mind and senses" forever knowing the inner states of undisturbed Love, Peace, Wisdom and Joy.

Suffering is the natural consequence of
The separation from God and our Inner Self.

It is living outside of Unity as a separate entity bound by the karmic laws and consequences of thoughts, deeds, and feelings that are alien to this Oneness. Pain on this earth plane is part of having a body and all that goes with the extreme paradox of being pure Spirit, locked in a small human form with needs, desires and cravings inherited from its primitive physical and psychological nature.

The Human Being Returning To God
Is The Pinnacle Of Creation.

The path to our inner nature is a simple one. So simple that it is overlooked in our rush to fill our lives with more and more of that which we are not truly seeking. It is a subtle shift in focus and an expansion of perspective. The path is an allowing for Silence and a silencing of the noise that conceals the higher states of consciousness. It is a reversal and balance of the life energy from an exclusive focus out into the excitation of the world, to a gentle upward and inward flow into the Eternal Self within.

We request all attendees read "Body of Time, Soul of Eternity" or "The Journey of the Soul" before the retreat. This contains the vocabulary and perceptual framework of the StillPoint Silent Retreats. It will also help you to determine whether this Silent Retreat experience is for you.
