KEY TO EVOLVING BEYOND THE EGO (AUDIO)

❝ When this free audio seminar was released on the internet last spring, it struck a deep chord for many evolutionaries. In fact, within two weeks of its release, it had been downloaded by over 140,000 people.

In The Key to Evolving Beyond Ego, Craig explains why our spiritual practices rarely lead to the kind of transformation we're seeking: the simple truth is that most of us haven't yet learned how to navigate past the part of us that doesn't actually want to change.

As Craig explains in this audio, this fundamental resistance to change is not our fault. We didn't choose it. It's not even a product of our childhood traumas.

This primitive part of the self--the ego--is rooted deep in our evolutionary past and is hardwired to preserve a sense of security and continuity at all costs.

Try asking it to change and you're going to get a big "no" for an answer. So, although we may think we want to evolve, and may be putting a lot of time and effort into our spiritual path, if we don't learn how to identify--and move beyond--this fundamental resistance to change, we will find that our efforts to awaken repeatedly fall short of the transformation we all sense is possible.

In this audio, Craig illuminates the most important step you can take to begin to identify your own ego resistance, and more importantly, how to make the simple but radical shift in orientation that can enable you to move beyond it. ❞

WHAT IS TRUE PARTNERSHIP? TELESEMINAR CONFERENCE ( FREE )

Listen to FREE recordings of 30 speakers illuminating the secrets of true partnership! 
Beginning May 23rd 2011

"The go-it-alone cowboy mentality is hurting our families, our relationships, our organizations, and our planet - contributing to isolation, cut-throat competition, dysfunctional teams and divided family units.
We’ve spent too many years learning about “I, me and mine” and not enough about “we” - how do WE successfully create relationships, business partnerships and collaborations based on clear principles that allow our gifts to shine.
It’s now time for True Partnership - between men and women, between same sex couples, between businesses and the environment, between cultures and between religions.
Partnering skills are essential to harnessing the genius of collaboration, the joys of love and the gifts of social synergy. They are the foundation for creating a better world.
The only issue is that most of us were never taught the basics!"



"The Conscious Partnering Conference 2011 is here to change that. We’ve gathered the world’s leading experts to help you understand the principles and practices that create truly satisfying partnerships - from your home to the office and on to groups that share your passion for positive change.

Join us and you’ll learn to:

•     Gracefully navigate common triggers and conflict in intimate relationships
•     Communicate your desires in a way that leads to common ground
•     Create clear agreements for effective business partnerships
•     Relate in both masculine and feminine ways
•     Apply partnership principles to our relationship with the natural world
•     Create sacred unions and spiritual partnerships
•     Deepen your bond to communities - moving beyond “me” to “we”

We’re in a world facing many crises. What’s heartbreaking is that there are so many incredible solutions available, yet we’re paralyzed by unhealthy individualism and an inability to cooperate.

Join us to be part of the solution at the Conscious Partnering Conference. Learn new skills, practices and secrets you can apply in every area of your life - from finding and sustaining romance and creating deeper bonds with your children to building fun and successful business partnerships and collaborating with others to bring about peace, sustainability and abundance for all.

I signed up for this Conference Series, in order to truly learn the WE of US. Namaste.

BIRTH 2012 & AWAKENING TO THE CALL OF THE COSMOS ~ AUDIO LECTURES

I have TWO great audio teleseminars to share with you, both Free ofcourse ( you know this is to be expected with me by now ;) ).

First is "Birth 2012: Co-Creating Planetary Shift on December 22nd 2012" with Barbara Marx Hubbard
To access this 1 HOUR lecture, you need to sign in @ http://birth2012.com/ with your name and e-mail address.
Then go to http://birth2012.com/program and sign in with the e-mail address to get access to the recording from March 22nd.

"So, for a moment, just take the perspective of a universal human, an astronaut. You are circling earth, you are visualizing and seeing it as a whole system struggling to coordinate, running out of its old form of energy. Its nervous system beginning to connect us all so we feel the pain of one throughout the whole body. And feel as this pain increases, there is an uprising of empathy. Our species is becoming empathetic. For the very first time, we are feeling the pain of others throughout the planetary body. As the empathy and heart connection increases among us, there is an awakening of the spirit within us and that spirit that has impelled each of us to be on this phone call and the hundreds of millions that will participate in the planetary birth on December 21 and 22, each of us is impelled by this source of creation itself. We are impelled by the process and impulse of evolution to participate. We are not doing this alone. And as the resonance and empathy builds, we feel as we are feeling on this phone an impulse that may not yet have a name. That may not yet have an obvious goal, but its rising within us. Our new nervous system is turning on and if we take the image of ourselves as a planetary baby, FaceBook and Twitter have just turned on." ~http://birth2012.com/sites/birth2012.com/files/Birth2012Activation.pdf

The second audio is Craig Hamilton's "Awakening to the Call of The Cosmos"
To access this 1½ HOUR lecture, you need to sign in @ http://integralenlightenment.com/online-courses/cosmos/ with your name and e-mail address. They'll send you a link to download the recording. (If not you can dowload it here http://integralenlightenment.com/online-courses/cosmos/downloads/craig.5.27.mp3.zip )

Something new is stirring in our midst. Each day, more and more of us are awakening to a calling to participate in the “great work” of consciously evolving ourselves and our world.
If you’re feeling this evolutionary call, you’ve probably taken to heart Einstein’s statement that we can’t solve our problems from the same level of consciousness that created them.
You probably also recognize that it’s not enough to simply “visualize world peace” or wait for the end of the Mayan calendar to usher in a new age.
You’ve realized that for the world to change in a meaningful way, human beings are going to have to evolve beyond the primitive, ego-driven patterns that continue to hold us back from our potential. And that, as with any meaningful change, a group of pioneers are needed to lead the way.
A new spiritual impulse is arising, compelling us to transform ourselves not merely for our own happiness, but in order to serve the greatest calling there is—the further evolution of life, humanity, and consciousness itself—and the creation of a more enlightened future.

Enjoy! I know I will!

Love, Light and Joy!

SPRING BREAK IS OVER

It seems I have been gone for a good month & a half, not on purpose... March is when sun starts to shine a lot more in Finland ( has to do with tilt of the earth ) and I almost always have the same reaction to it which is I get tired ( very odd, it's suppose to be backwards ) and it takes me a while to yawn my way to latest to May to cheer up. ( seriously yawning even as we speak )

Now what has been going on while I was gone, I've been going to work every work day and watched spring come to life with the kids. I got tired to my hair being in Winter shape and cut myself a fringe/bangs. ;)

 
Went to see "Wicked" with my sister who turned 14, had my husband's 39th Birthday where I got him a PS3, discovered that part of my March Blues were probably due to the fact I stopped exercising during the winter so picked that up again just lately, and it has helped as I am here! in my blog again! Also returned to Sparkpeople.com a free and the sanest workout and diet site on the web ( if you are there, you can find me as SlimmerMe82 - 4,776 fitness minutes so far! ).

Last post I made was about my hair, and about coloring it. It's driving me mad! Mad! Right now it's the color that makes it look always dirty, my natural hair color is lighter than the package brand I've bought so what happens is the roots do look 'dirty' if I don't wash my hair daily - and even wind will cause problems - but I will ride this out, I'm strong - and also I Am Not My Body, that bit always helps when a nasty little though "people must think I'm a slob" crosses my mind. It's still hard for my ego to come to craps with the idea that people don't really think of me that Much, you know! ;D

Also there are bad news from the past month as well, my husband's brother's grand kids, two adorable little girls were killed in a car crash, their parents were very badly injured. There is no pain like children dying. Them living in america and seeing them only few times didn't make it easier.

But now I'm enjoying finding my happy, energetic Niina again - with the help of eating prober food again, exercising and visiting my blog. Bring on the Spring! I want green grass and warm weather. :)

Love, Light and Joy!

P.S: Check out the third to last Teleseminar episode March 20th, 2011: Michael Dowd – “Big Integrity: Deep-Time Eyes and a Global Heart” HERE for a truly wonderful view on Knowledge and Science being an Island in an Ocean that is Mystery - and there is no harm to making the Island bigger it will always be surrounded my Mystery. ( at 29:00 in the teleseminar )
Another gem in the Beyond Awakening Series - and it's still Free, always will be.

DAILY "INTEGRAL" PRACTICE TELESEMINAR (FREE)

"Greetings!

It's been a long time since I've sent an email to you as a part of my "own" email list (apart from Beyond Awakening, which, together with what I'm announcing here, has kept me very busy!)

But I want to make sure invite you to tune in to something I've been working on for the last 7 years, and really, the last 3 decades of my life. I believe it will be of deep benefit to you and our whole community.

What would our world look like if many of us were actually doing a heartfelt, deep spiritual practice that reconnected us each day to our hearts, our bodies, Life, and the Mystery of existence?

I'm convinced--and I hope to share my radical optimism with you--that the only way to truly evolve ourselves individually, culturally, and as a planetary civilization...

... our best bet, and also the simplest and most immediate action we can take today, to gradually, yet profoundly, change the course of our lives ...

... is for each of us to have a daily, do-able spiritual practice based on integral principles.

And, I believe I've distilled the essence of what such a practice looks like.

After over 3 decades of doing my own practice, after teaching Integral Practice for 7 years, and after a year of interviewing over 30 of the brightest and deepest spiritual teachers of our time--I am ready to share with you my essential synthesis in a FREE special teleconference:

The 3 Essential Practices of an Integral Spiritual Life: How to Gradually, Yet Profoundly, Deepen Your Life while Serving the Evolution of Our World

I'm so fired up to share this FREE teleconference because I know that spiritual practice is alive--and it's evolving--and it will continue to evolve because that's what it loves to do... and because it must.

And it makes perfect sense.

We are living and doing our practices in a world that would be totally unrecognizable to the great enlightened luminaries of ancient times.

Before the Buddha awakened under the Bodhi Tree, he wasn't dealing with spam, computer viruses, voicemail, insurance claims, credit ratings, childcare, coordinating busy schedules, or fears over global warming.

But we're not passive victims of our circumstance. Not at all.

There are simple yet powerful ways for us to rise to these unprecedented challenges, and this is precisely what I will be talking about in my free teleconference.

I invite you to listen to it live, or hear the recording afterwards.

Sign up here to get on the notification list and receive free instant access to the telesconference details right away.

Truly, I am excited and honored to share with you what is in many ways the culmination of my lifetime of work and research.

I look forward to being with you on the teleconference!

With love,
Terry

PS - Please feel free to invite your friends and loved ones to attend this teleconference. Simply forward them this email."

WOMEN ON THE EDGE OF EVOLUTION

http://www.womenontheedgeofevolution.com/

A Free Teleseminar called Women On the Edge of Evolution.

Our question:
What is our role as women in creating the future of our world?

"The world will be saved by the western woman."
His Holiness the Dalai Lama

Something amazing is happening for us as women. As one of the first generations liberated from the tasks of mere survival, we now have the freedom, the credentials, the resources and the interest to turn our attention toward the full transformation of ourselves and our world.
Never before have we as a global group of women been holding so much potential, or so much power, to shape our collective future....
Yet, what is the pathway to awakening the fullness of our authentic power as women?
Where should we give our energy and attention in order to make our greatest contribution?
And how might we work together and support each other in this process?
We invite you to join our global community of women as we come together to engage the most important questions of our time.

Participation Is Free...

There is no cost to participate in this live, interactive event. Thanks to our generous sponsors and to all the visionary women who have volunteered their time and wisdom, we are able to offer this event for free to the public.

Great gem at 1:26:00 - Do you think women's fear of the effect of their feminine powerhas prevented us from making this leap on our own spirituality?

In our Beyond Awakening series, I just had an incredible dialogue with Claire Zammit in which she described her personal story and recent work catalyzing an  explosive community centering on feminine power and  spirituality. We waded into what is sometimes "dangerous territory" -- what sometimes makes things difficult between men and women, and how women becoming empowered can paradoxically open up new co-creative synergies between men and women.

Many people today are discovering the liberating truth that we are all part of a vast evolving process. But how often do the lives we lead become a dynamic expression of this higher vision and all that it reveals? What does it take to truly become extraordinary examples of a life lived for the sake of the evolutionary process? In this Beyond Awakening dialogue, Andrew will shed light on the role and purpose of spiritual practice in an evolutionary context and will explain how sincere spiritual practice can help transform our lives to become a reflection of a greater care--a care for the evolutionary process itself.

I myself had a very hard time listening to this one because I am somewhat familar with Cohen's style of teaching and speaking. I had to have a good few minute cleansing breath before listening to this.
The high points were 40:40 where he talks about how we came from utter peace from absolute stillness and that we are here because we want "action". ;) And 54:30 why and how to get excited about our spirituality and 1:05:16 word "enlightenment is going to be out dated sooner or later..."

~☮♥☮~ HAVING LISTENED TO THIS: ~☮♥☮~

After listening into this I joined Integral Life.

I especially enjoeyd 00:30 College example of how many of us are actually "Spiritual, not religious"  it reminded me of Barbara Marx Hubbards statement how we are many but like the imaginal discs of catepillar turning to butterfly we haven't quite come to point where we connect, know the existance, of each other. That day is coming. And like Ken Wilber later state in the podcast when we pass the 10% limit we become aware of each other and... Evolve. :)

BEYOND AWAKENING FREE TELESEMINAR

A FREE Teleseminar series! http://beyondawakeningseries.com/

Over 20 000 people have already signed up! 

My name is Terry Patten, and as your host and the series founder, I'm very happy to have you join us for our free teleseminar series with 27 of the most dynamic spiritual teachers on the planet today.

Over the next few weeks we'll gather together online every Sunday and Thursday evening, by conference call and online, to participate in conversations that will dive into the important, timely, and sometimes vexing questions that we all face as conscious beings alive in the 21st century.

If you missed my introduction to the series on September 12th, you can listen or download the audio here:  http://attendthisevent.com/?eventid=14914209

I spend the last hour listening to the first introduction, and after when they get to business, after introducing each other, it's full of gold! I am amazed and delighted this is being talked about. We do need to all have some common ground, a place to agree in.
I especially enjoyed 00:31:00 how can our spirituality create a second renessance: "What can be our agreement that holds us together when we disagree" and 00:39:00 where they talk about how "Humanity is evolving now at a fast track compared to our early history".
Do sign up and receiver emails, addresses and information. Do. Do. Do! :D

Our Next Event in the Series will feature an in-depth discussion on the past, present and future of spiritual practice with Integral philosopher Ken Wilber, on Thursday, September 16th @ 5 PM Pacific. You will receive an email with all the access information prior to the event.
