This is not a conference. This is not an event. The intent is not to schmooze, network, or intellectualize. The intent is to tap into Big Sky Mind and quit censoring the big hairy audacious dreams just behind the dam.
I like how bestselling author Eckhart Tolle opens his second book, Stillness Speaks. This is the spirit of the "advance" as well:
If you come to a spiritual teacher - or this book - looking for stimulating ideas, theories, beliefs, intellectual discussions, then you will be disappointed. In other words, if you are looking for food for thought, you won't find it, and you will miss the very essence of the teaching, the essence of this book, which is not in the words but within yourself. It is good to remember that, to feel that, as you read. The words are no more than signposts. That which they point is not to be found within the realm of thought, but a dimension within yourself that is deeper and infinitely vaster than thought. A vibrantly alive peace is one of the characteristics of that dimension...
