Soul & Stillness
A River of Soul Series
Atula and David Findlay with Sahajamani
The value is not
in technique or teaching
but in the quality of the space that’s created,
a space in which we are able to share
not just our light but our darkness too,
share it and feel it accepted,
as we do the silent source within us
which enables this to happen is also seen and witnessed
and at the end of six weekends, though we still may not
know each other’s names properly
we have seen each other’s souls.
The River of Soul series of workshops is designed to create an environment in which it becomes possible to explore our deep relationship with Soul, where it has led us so far and where it is seeking to go. In the past many participants have expressed surprise that they and other participants have gone so deep so quickly, we attribute this to the fact that working in the name of Soul evokes both it’s individual and mutual aspects as a living energy and it is this that creates safety, acceptance, trust and ultimately love.
We work with myth and poetry, discussion and interaction in small and large groups as well as using guided meditation to evoke experiences from the past and possibilities for the future. Our approach is designed to evoke an experience of Soul within and through sharing and witnessing we are able to build a collective understanding of Soul rather than teaching theoretically.
'‘The River of Soul course has allowed me to get closer to my actual life - to trust the process of feeling the pain of the past in an embodied way. Painful as it has been to come out of the stories of the past,I have learnt to trust this embodied connection, allow it into my lifeand appreciate the inherent relationship it has to peace and the common humanity we all share.’'
