Work Shop/Life Course - Dynamic Introduction/Orientation/Alignment to these Awakening Programs and Entrainments.
Awakening Programs - GAP/GAP+/PEP+/PEP (Gentle Awakening and Productive Energy Programs). These programs are essential for integration of consciousness. All Awakening Programs include GEM.
Awakening Meditations - GEM/GEM+ (Gentle Effortless Meditations). These programs are essential for enlivening/deepening and clarity of consciousness. With GAP/GAP+/PEP+ one acquires a natural ability to gently and effortlessly meditate (GEM - Gentle Effortless Meditation). GEM+ is an advanced program to GEM.
Awakening Entrainments - Diksa/CSI (Cerebral Spinal Integration). These programs are essential for expanding consciousness and. See below explanation on entrainments. Awakening entrainments are included in the work/life-shop’s only, or may be an individual program added to the + programs.
Awakening Processes – These Special Processes are utilized to insure success even with the most persistent cases or to enhance the progress of any participant. Pranayama, Qi Kung, Physical, Mental, Emotional techniques (Healing/Awakening Processes Of Enlivenment Of Consciousness), will be designed specifically for any group or individual as the needs dictate.
Post-Awakening - LIFE - Levels (of) Integration For Enlivenment-Of Consciousness. – Available only after Peace of Mind is predominantly awakened in ones daily life.
PERMANENT PEACE OF MIND
Awakening permanent peace of mind is never being overwhelmed at any time by any situation regardless of how traumatic it is as well as not being overwhelmed by even the slightest occurrence – just not being overwhelmed period, anywhere anytime for any reason - moment to moment freedom.
It is not an intellectual or emotional approach, nor does it require an intellectual or emotional resistance in any form to succeed. Actually, the intellect and emotions together with moment-to- moment occurrences, which provide unlimited potential for growth, become the very tools enabling one to effortlessly regain the freedom inherently available.
Ironically spirituality itself is transcended, effectively releasing oneself from conceptual limitations. One cannot learn this through the intellect or even feel as if they have it. An actual realization is achieved which is as effortless as seeing, hearing etc. Beyond being overwhelmed by thoughts, emotions or any situation.
WORK SHOP/LIFE COURSE
Work Shop/Life Course is a Dynamic Orientation/Alignment before the 1st Module or Part 1 of GAP the (Gentle Awakening Program) which-includes an introduction to obstacles, which overwhelm us, increase stress and prevent continual awakening/integration of consciousness for permanent peace of mind as well as Special Processes and Entrainments (see below). It enables one to experience a broad spectrum of what is available in the Awakening Programs and Awakening Entrainments.
AWAKENING PROGRAMS
The teaching agenda for Awakening Programs repeatedly reflects integration with normal life situations. Essential to the program’s is an experiential progressive realization followed by refinements, which softens and dissolves obstacles including buttons, and patterns that prevent us from Full Awakening to our level of consciousness, which we have thus far achieved. Awakening Programs is the primary factor needed to effortlessly integrate spirituality/ peace of mind in our moment-to-moment life, rather then only experiencing spiritual moments/ peace of mind in sadhana (spiritual practices) or at peak times of bliss and euphoria. Most everyone can feel spiritual/ peace of mind in these peak times but progressively loose this peace of mind in life’s trial and tribulations. A major factor of these Awakening Programs is that the processes, is spontaneous, practical, and effortless, and transcends itself rather then becoming fixed on a concept. These Awakening Programs must be taught in a real world straightforward manner, which precisely pinpoints the traps/obstacles to peace of mind as they naturally unfold spontaneously from multiple perspectives with the participant’s interaction; again not in a strictly lecture format or 'airy fairy' everything is wonderful atmosphere, as it must reflect all aspects of life moment to moment. Fully integrated (grounded) spirituality is the epitome of practicality and Awakening Programs reflect this, otherwise it will not be grasped and utilized effectively through out our daily lives. Another words it must be real and each participant creates that reality with their interaction. Therefore no two courses will be alike.
It requires a personalized program of groups or individually to get a major shift -usually to total peace of mind etc - as each class Dr. G. has conducted in groups of one on one since 1993 have been unique yet lead to the same outcome - integrating consciousness (peace of mind) into daily activity. In other words there is no format to be followed yet there is a progression, depending on the group dynamics, which may be achieved. The progression may be – buttons – patterns - effortless meditation - traps of the mind –anchors – etc. with attention to and elimination of being overwhelmed at each state of consciousness by fear, the pain body (as Eckhart Tolle refers to) etc. It must be done in a question and answer interaction, not just lecture. Suggestion: Go to Assessment Tab to Asses your need for these programs.
PEP These programs are designed to soften overwhelming buttons and patterns, which we are aware of. The program is lecture based with discussion/interaction. Dr. G has been teaching 1st Module material to staff, friends and patients, since 1993 in a business, clinical and or spiritual and non- spiritual format, including some with severe psychological (suicidal etc) pathologies, as well as to non-pathological family and friends (the average healthy person) and even recently enlightened ones who needed more integration or when they were ready to move to a higher state. The success rate with all has been 99 %+; i.e. to integrate the consciousness level currently achieved, enabling one to more fully utilize consciousness and become less and less overwhelmed. We tend to innocently utilize our available consciousness predominately to enhance stress unknowingly. Historically PEP has progressively put an end to this as quickly as the participants allow it. PEP has been revised in a business format only and GAP is now primarily utilized for spiritually based formats. As always, PEP/GAP will be designed according to the needs of a particular group or individual.
GAP Gentle Awakening Program is a revised program (2007) originating from PEP taught in a spiritual format only. PEP was originally taught in all formats but due to a rapid increase in interest nationally and internationally the courses were renamed to more effectively serve and organize each group or individual participant.
GAP+ Gentle Awakening Program + (plus), is an expanded program designed to provide an approach for any spiritually based group including special programs for that particular group or individual which may include spiritual entrainments (see below), Qi Gong and other programs, as the needs of each group is determined. See Curriculum Vitae for background information. A recent example of GAP+ may be a Part one spiritually based nonreligious athletic program, which began in December 2007 and will continue on through out 2008.
PEP+ Productive Energy Program + (plus), is a specialized Part 1 –2 - 3 program with Special Processes for businesses/industry which may include a more concentrated regimen of CSI. PEP and PEP+ will integrate and blend the most effective practical aspects of spirituality and empirically proven methods (Go to Testimonial Tab) into a program beyond stress management for the businessperson through out the world. Initially PEP+ will be designed for executives as a pilot program for introduction into their industry/business.
None of these programs are inherently religious or dogmatic; however there have been very religious individuals and groups of people who have benefited from a religious perspective. Infinite and eternally flexible permanent peace of mind is whole, full, and complete and applicable to any sphere of thought, belief, philosophy, science, nonreligious or religious. None of these programs requires or negates any science, philosophy, religion or nonreligious perspective. Therefore these programs can and will serve any one who sincerely has made permanent peace of mind a priority in their life
AWAKENING MEDITATIONS
GEM- GEM+ GAP/GAP+PEP/PEP+ includes a Gentle, Effortless Meditation (GEM), which is essential for peace of mind, and awakening. How can one be in peace or be awakened if it requires effort? Any mental effort is interpreted by the mind as stress. What you resist persist and where the attention goes the energy goes. Therefore the energy goes to any thing u resist, which creates stress from mental effort. Remember you cannot fool Mother Nature no matter how subtly you attempt to disguise it (resistance) or what you call it or feel about it. We tend to innocently utilize our available consciousness predominately to enhance stress unknowingly. This program enables one to awaken inherently available peace and become less and les overwhelmed effortlessly. All of GAP/PEP’s teaching agenda repeatedly reflects integration in normal life situations. Please see more examples written below. As GEM becomes more refined one is able to effectively utilize its effects moment to moment effortlessly. Through out every day as GEM/GAP is refined one can effectively, effortlessly remain centered, aligned and progressively culture more and more peace in their lives.
PEP, PEP + and GEM also are designed to integrate practical spiritual methods of obtaining permanent peace of mind with non-spiritual secular concepts and with religious, atheistic, nonreligious, athletic, industry/business, scientific and any other group; integrating practical spiritual techniques and programs in a contemporary non-spiritual extremely practical format such as this Gentle Effortless Meditation, (GEM). In other words, the nuts and bolts, blending no nonsense spiritual proven methods into a practical beyond stress management program. Most stress management programs include some form of meditation today. Each program will be designed according to the groups or individuals needs. It is, in essence, a blend of the most effective eastern and western methods to enliven harmony and permanent peace of mind. GEM+ is an advanced program to GEM.
ENTRAINMENTS
EXACTLY WHAT ARE ENTRAINMENTS? Entrainments are a naturally occurring phenomenon in which similar frequencies tend to synchronize with each other.
Entrainments are a physics phenomenon of resonance, first observed in the 17th century, which has an effect on all of us. Entrainment is defined as the tendency for two oscillating bodies to lock into phase so that they vibrate in harmony. It is also defined as a synchronization of two or more rhythmic cycles. The principle of entrainment is universal, appearing in chemistry, pharmacology, biology, medicine, psychology, sociology, astronomy, architecture, SPIRITUALITY and more. The classic example shows individual pulsing heart muscle cells. When they are brought close together, they begin pulsing in synchrony. Another example of the entrainment effect is women who live in the same household may find that their menstrual cycles will coincide.
DISCOVERY OF ENTRAINMENT
The history of entrainment is linked to Dutch scientist, Christian Huygens in 1665. While working on the design of the pendulum clock, Huygens found that when he placed two of them on a wall near each other and swung the pendulums at different rates, they would eventually end up swinging in at the same rate. This is due to their mutual influence on one another. Entrainment phenomena – the synchronization of two or more autonomous rhythmic processes – have been identified in many natural systems. When one physically oscillating system entrains another, it means that the timing of repetitive motions by one system influence motions by another oscillator such that they fall into a simple temporal relationship with each other. These phenomena seem to be universal and can be understood within a common framework of nonlinear system dynamics that has been developed mainly in physics, mathematics, engineering, and natural sciences. Entrainments are also known by many names in different religions or philosophies such as Blessing, Benediction, Darshan, Shakti, etc. or scientifically they are just called entrainments.
AWAKENING ENTRAINMENTS
Awakening entrainments utilized in conjunction with GAP and PEP is a naturally occurring phenomenon in which similar frequencies synchronize with the most harmonious frequency when entrained by a qualified practitioner. These entrainments are called Deeksha (aka Diksa) and Cerebral Spinal Integration (CSI), a non-clinical application of Network Spinal Analysis. Diksa entrainments are administered in various forms such as hands on, eyesight and intentional Diksa entrainments as well as Cerebral Spinal Integration (CSI); a spiritual nonclinical hands on application, which originated from Network Spinal Analysis.
DIKSA There is preliminary scientific evidence that Diksa entrainments update the hardware in the brain body (metaphorically) in order to expand Consciousness. It may be proven to harmonize the over activity of the Occipital lobes and the Limbic system as well as the brain stem and similar areas as well as enlivening the Prefrontal Cortex especially as the empirical evidence suggests the expansion of consciousness which is becoming self evident.
It is important to realize any entrainments including Spiritual Entrainments are something that you cannot do for your self no matter how much sadhana (spiritual practices) you do, otherwise most sincere sadhaka’s (those who perform spiritual practices) would be enlightened already and unfortunately this is not the case. Dr. G. engages at least 3-5 hours of sadhana a day since 1978 and those who live at ashrams that do more sadhana will fertilize the consciousness for entrainments to have a more profound effect. Entrainments are needed for the full realization of Permanent Peace of Mind/Awakening/ Enlightenment etc, even in the rare cases of spontaneous enlightenment where as a tremendous crescendo of energy has paradoxically vaulted some to realization, integration is however not inherently part of enlightenment. Therefore it may take years or decades to integrate enlightened consciousness, if at all. Often times this lack of integration may be called the Dark Night of the Soul.
However, Even then, the Awakening Programs are necessary for integration of consciousness with and before Enlightenment/ Awakening/Permanent Peace of Mind etc even in the rare cases of spontaneous enlightenment. Read Tolle and Hawkins; had they had GAP they would have integrated consciousness sooner instead ofyears/decades.
CSI With CSI (Cortico-Spinal Integration alone, the nonclinical spiritual aspects of Network Chiropractic) participants progressively and obviously become less overwhelmed - yet their consciousness would not expand enough to get them to have a major shift unless of course it was already sufficiently expanded. Therefore Diksa entrainments were added to provide this expansion, along with the Awakening Programs to integrate consciousness and amplify the ability to become less and less overwhelmed until peace of mind is awakened. CSI is utilized to assist the effortless process and may be an essential entrainment in some situations.
CSI/GAP/PEP/DIKSA CSI (metaphorically) integrates the hardware of the brain and Diksa update’s the hardware to provide the physical dimension, tone and resonance of consciousness. However, to stabilize it in all dimensions and utilize it effectively it is necessary to integrate it with (software) GAP/PEP in order to move more efficiently, and successfully into higher states of consciousness while becoming firmly established/integrated in your present state of consciousness particularly as it expands. Therefore GAP/PEP provides the necessary software, where as it enables one to utilize their state of consciousness fully, moment to moment. With the potential of Diksa to expand consciousness GAP (integration) becomes more essential as one progresses. With this combination CSI, GAP/PEP/DIKSA most people can move much quicker through to integrated expanded consciousness.
Many Gurus’ (teachers) are utilizing certain types of entrainments/Diksa with their devotee’s such as Sai Ma, Sri-Sri Ravi Shankar (Dr. G.’s guru/teacher) and the Oneness Movement’s Bhagavan Kalki. Dr. G. is qualified to facilitate Diksa from two of these organizations. With all of these entrainments Diksa’s will function essentially the same as they are conveyed through their Guru in conjunction with the Highest Source/Unified field. It is Oneness Movement’s intention that all religions will have their Ministers. Bishops, and even the Pope utilizing Diksa as well as the scientific community in relationship with predictable, reproducible outcomes over a period of time, which began in the 1990’s. GAP may be made available to them when that time comes. For the rest of society since it is whole complete and full PEP will integrate consciousness with out a spiritual, or religious perceptive.
IN REVIEW
GEM A gentle effortless practical meditation program enlivens clarity of consciousness. This program is effortlessly expanded to be effective through out your waking day especially in Part Two of GAP or PEP. Based on spiritual principles of effortless meditation it is however a specialized method which does not necessarily employ spiritual concepts. This program is as effortless as seeing, tasting, feeling, hearing, and smelling.
GEM+ An advanced program to GEM.
GAP/PEP Integrates all levels of consciousness, disentangles the emotional, mental entanglements at each level, softening and dissolving the obstacles of awareness/peace of mind. Provides software integration, updates and support as needed. It is the HOW TO UTILIZE CONSCIOUSNESS moment to moment PEACEFULLY. It does not change the software, that is up to you if you so choose but it does integrate it with your consciousness. If you have total permanent peace of mind and or freedom from being overwhelmed then you may not need this program, however; The Levels Of Integration For Enlivenment Of Consciousness Program (LIFE) would be of benefit. All of these programs include GEM.
GAP+/PEP+ Includes GAP or PEP and Specialized Programs/Special Processes.
CSI There is scientific evidence of integration (Network Spinal Analysis) of the prefrontal cortex with the spine and the rest of the body and the emotional system enhancing spiritual awareness. Integrating the hardware. Go to Links.
Diksa There is preliminary scientific evidence of facilitation of a neurobiological shift especially in the prefrontal cortex, occipital lobes and Limbic system and possibly the entire body, to provide a physical harmonious anchor of consciousness. Updates the hardware. Go to Links.
HOW IT ALL WORKS
The Awakening Entrainments are intended to synchronize with the most harmonious frequency of nature (biologically), Higher Self, or Source (depending on how you see it, what your expression is of the One Source or Unified Field). The Awakening Meditations provides an enlivened clarity of consciousness and the Awakening Programs effortlessly integrate consciousness into activity moment to moment. Essentially the key to success is complete and total effortlessness beyond thought or emotions to re-cultivate continuous uninterrupted peace of mind, which we have not experienced since infancy, but now with the maturity of an adult. How could it be peaceful if we had to concentrate, contemplate, visualize, and or think positively each and every moment or even occasionally albeit passively resisting our thoughts, emotions and life itself as it flows through its negative and positive waves and cycles? We cannot fool Mother Nature by even passively resisting any of these overwhelming moments, thoughts, emotions through any of the aforementioned methods, or any other, which avoids life. Please see example below.
EXAMPLE
You may or may not be aware of your-self, rationalizing, manipulating, intellectualizing, emotions, thoughts, action, or deeds in order to always have and hold on to peace of mind, happiness etc. As U know what U resist persists. Therefore the more one craves or seeks peace of mind the more the passive attention goes to the lack of peace (we cannot fool Mother Nature). This subtle and often times hidden (subconscious) agenda is to avoid that which is not peaceful. Since you cannot fool Mother Nature, the mind then amplifies these aversions. However there is no need to manipulate anything such as your thoughts, emotions, action, or deeds. This is just one of the traps of the mind as well as judging, craving, aversions, etc. Paradoxically what U resist will definitely persist! That is if U resist, avoid, replace, tolerate, escape- ANY AND ALL - judging, craving, aversions, etc they will only persist with greater energy albeit subtly, consciously, subconsciously or unconsciously. Therefore you just continue to be trapped and stuck at deeper levels without these Awakening Programs, Meditations and Entrainments. Isn't this how life usually progresses? Yet if we attempt to not resist it, this is also resistance that eventually brings us full circle back to more stress. It must be noted that the traps of the mind are infinite and with out being guided with GAP/PEP, integration has been extremely rare even with enlightened beings. David R. Hawkins “Power vs. Force” points out that 50% of those who are spontaneously enlightened are not integrated and cannot fully function at their acquired level of consciousness. Actually if peace of mind is not awakened and utilized moment-to-moment no one can function fully at any level of consciousness. Therefore it is imperative that the traps are exposed with Awakening Programs to integrate efficiently and enable one to more clearly respond moment-to- moment with action instead of reaction.
So What To Do!?
Take the Awakening Programs rather then continuing your searching, spending etc. Nothing lost, as EVERYTHING U have done up to now, time spent, brought U here, but when you are tired of looking, or when you want to move forward take GAP/PEP. Awakening Programs will integrate peace of mind in activity for maximum function in all states of consciousness.
THE UNIQUENESS OF THESE PROGRAMS
"Many speak of what needs to be done intelectualy, but none teach experiently exactly how to obtain it. How to effortlessly disentangle the entanglements of the mind and provide the experiential realization, which the Awakening Programs do in order for the obstacles/traps to peace of mind to become a thing of the past enabling you to remain in the presence of the present, without being overwhelmed even by it, which is the only place peace of mind, exists. This is not an intellectual or emotionally based approach otherwise many more would have permanent peace of mind already.
We all know a picture is worth a thousand words. An experience is worth a thousand pictures and we may go on to say that a Realization with a capital R is worth a thousand lucid experiences, which is total and complete. Peace is just with in our reach when properly guided. It is our birthright and is effortless. Yet we have habitually and innocently been taken away from it. Now it is time to move forward into an expanded comfort zone of peace every moment. Don’t think you are in the present moment! Know it, experience it, realize it, and imbibe it each moment effortlessly with or without thought". Dr. G.
This is what every sincere person is ultimately looking for. Please do not hesitate as this will be offered more and more nationally and internationally (therefore Dr. G.’s time will be occupied more and more) and the rates will increase as well, to full price especially since he will be paying staff and assistants.
“I have searched the world for the most effective way - I am convinced that u can not get this (yet) anywhere else in the world in this format and certainly not with this previous success rate since 1993. I will drop any of this and add anything to it or totally revise it if I find anything to be more effective in awakening peace of mind through out the world. I am in the process of training individuals nationally through out the U.S.A. who will assist me in the future once they have reached permanent peace of mind. . Soon, I will need people in each country to assist me once they have reached permanent peace of mind. . If you are hesitating or not sure - know that the only regret you may have is not taking these Awakening Programs, Meditations and Entrainments ASAP.
“Weather you are new to spirituality or have spent a life time at it I am sure you would like to be able to utilize all that you learn from it in your daily activity moment to moment in the most effortless manner possible. Experts in Spirituality, Teachers of it, Psychics and novices as well have benefited immensely from these courses. Why should you only experience peace of mind or freedom when you are doing your sadhana (spiritual practices) or when things are going well for you? One would think or feel that spiritual practices should have no barriers including life itself regardless of tragedies, traumas, and ups and down or even seemingly little things, which overwhelm you. PEP (The Productive Energy Program) and now with GAP (the Gentle Awakening Program) has been extremely effective in doing just that since 1993. It is as effortless as seeing, hearing, touching, tasting, smelling, thinking, and feeling emotions. Since March of 2006 I have begun to make it available to everyone, instead of only my staff, patients, and friends.
A shift in paradigms is required in order to move through the levels of consciousness the least of which is intellectual/emotional which is very superficial, sporadic and usually temporary The sooner the intellect/emotions is effortlessly transcended the quicker it becomes a useful tool which no longer controls us and truly serves us. The next shift in paradigms is experiential which one is guided through in GAP/PEP and requires refinement until this is also transcended when a Realization-al shift occurs at which time it is automatic and moment-to-moment as consciousness expands to being full, complete and whole. These three paradigms have many levels and each of them may require great periods of time to transcend/shift with some and as little as several months in others. However GAP/PEP begins at the 2nd paradigm and continues through out many higher levels of consciousness. The benefits are self evident since the intellect is transcended at the most basic level of GAP/PEP. A Realization in its purest sense occurs very rarely and even more rarely without GAP/PEP, therefore it is best to begin with GAP/PEP enabling one to effortlessly and progressively move towards permanent peace of mind, which is within the grasp of most practitioners of GAP/PEP. There are many Realization-al shifts after the initial one and since GAP/PEP transcends itself at each level - GAP/PEP has assisted in these processes of higher consciousness even with some enlightened ones. Each time a level is transcended, a shift occurs in consciousness and a new paradigm emerges with its own laws of nature, sense of well-being, wholeness, completeness and fullness.
A Realization in its purest sense occurs very rarely because the more one attempts to become enlightened the less chances one has in obtaining it. This is one aspect of the “middle road” which the Buddha spoke of. The more He persistently attempted to be enlightened the farther from it He was. Had proper guidance been available in the form of what is now called GAP/PEP, He would have known sooner that suffering and austerities were not beneficial. However permanent peace of mind is something, which is readily available with GAP/PEP on a moment-to-moment basis, as it is a dynamic state of consciousness that continuously expands into higher consciousness. Permanent peace of mind is not only the goal of GAP/PEP but it progressively unfolds effortlessly through-out the courses, programs, modules and levels of integration, consistent with the levels of consciousness one has thus far obtained. The entrainment programs and GEM will enhance, refine, and expand levels of consciousness effortlessly". Dr. G.
