Free for everyone!
Well finally, after almost four years of hard and resourceful work, 5GATEWAYS goes on general release. We've always felt that the message of the Five Gateways represents a universal truth and of enormous benefit to mankind when properly understood and integrated into our journey. But don't take our word for it of course, check it out for yourself. You can watch the film here on Openhandweb in full, or in separate chapters to give you time to digest each section. We do trust you'll derive benefit and then if you feel to, share with your friends. From our hearts to yours...Play full film

After three and a half years, the golden sunrise of 5GATEWAYS is rising over the horizon and breaking through the clouds. Wednesday night was a truly momentous occasion as the film was beamed for the first time onto the big screen to 125 people (so I'm told by Liz on the door). It's finally beginning to dawn on me that the Openhand 5GATEWAYS documentary film has been born. The entire process was a phenomenal learning curve for everyone involved, with the most intense challenges and always the divine invitation to trust even deeper...

Counting down the days
Well we had an absolutely awesome experience last night at the "5Gateways" Premiere. About 115 lovely souls turned up to celebrate the film's release. And it went down so well with everyone. It seems to have captured to energy of the moment perfectly - soulful transition and uplifting change. When we check what photos and film we got from the evening, we hope to share some of the energy with you all. And of course now, we look forwards to the general release on the web - we're anticipating 15th March. Be sure to tune in. Thanks so much too for all the wonderful well-wishing below....

Friends of Openhand,
You may know we've been working hard for the last couple of years compiling a documentary film about the Five key expansions of consciousness on route to Enlightenment and Ascension. There have been countless twists and turns on the path to completion, it has at times felt like climbing the north face of Everest! Well, despite the challenges we've had to surmount, I'm absolutely thrilled to say we're now nearing the summit. The film is going to be premiered around the world in September and October and on 11/11/2010, "5Gateways" will go on general release. Just to whet your appetite, we've compiled a trailer which you can view at the bottom of this post. We'd love you to watch it and spread the interest far and wide...

Hi Openhanders!
We're thrilled to announce that the update work on our book "Gateways of Light" is now complete. The new version is being released today as "Five Gateways". It feels divinely given to now bring more focus on the historical account of the five key evolutionary transitions that we believe is encoded in all our hearts. Hence the new version emphasises more strongly the priceless and age-old nature of this profound route-map. We've also secured a direct relationship with the international book distributors "Lightning Source", hence we're able to offer it today at only 50% of the recommended retail price. We know in our hearts "Five Gateways" contains the blueprint for our Ascension. We say as humbly as possible, it can provide the solution to many of the problems humanity is currently facing.

Greetings friends of Openhand
We've just completed our first "Five Gateways" workshop with a full house of participants from many varied spiritual backgrounds. It was without doubt the most enlightening Openhand course to date. Five Gateways is a profound model of Spiritual Evolution that spans back through the history of mankind. It is a route map which has been coded into the lives of countless spiritual masters from the Buddha to Jesus. It is a hidden code which has been misunderstood and misinterpreted by humanity for thousands of years. Well now we're dusting off the pages of history and bringing the teachings into a new light. We know in our hearts, Five Gateways will ultimately take its place as a global standard for Spiritual Evolution...

Life changing phenomenom...

Prior to my kundalini awakening I had no knowledge of what kundalini energy was. Like a bolt out of the blue, one unsuspecting evening, I was taken by complete surprise by this life changing phenomenon. My story is testimony to the fact that whilst walking the path of spiritual evolution, there is a time, place and natural order for everything...

My Awakening Story
It was exactly fourteen years ago that my life changed forever. The illusion of the world we live in was totally shattered! This is my story of awakening and today seemed appropriate to share it.

I'd spent my whole life waking up... even as a child, I found life to be a mystery. Nothing seemed to fit, no one seemed to be able to answer my questions. I tried for a while to anesthetise myself in the trivialities of life, but failed miserably. I guess it was never my destiny to spend this lifetime in a dreamy slumber...

An Openhander's Journey...
I awoke this morning to feel a warm tropical breeze on my skin and wild cockerels calling in the distance, long before the dawn arose. I've journeyed far into the west in the middle of the pacific ocean to find myself flooded with humble respect of the organising power of the universe. I admit to having to pinch myself and feel my flesh... Yes, I am here!!! After a seamless trip of over 24 hours from Glastonbury, I flew to the Hawaiian 'garden' island of Kauai. Paradise!

A sharing

I may not have worn a habit, but to all intents and purposes I was living life as a bachelor monk. My marriage had ended and I'd rented a small flat on a farm in the rolling Hampshire countryside. I was exploring energy principally through meditation and my connection to Mother Nature. Countless hours were spent in the fields connecting with trees, birds, cloud formations and the miraculous weave that exists through the pure and simple beauty of life.

Each vision synchronistically so presented, stirred deep feelings of joy within. I was dissolving steadily but surely into eternal self love. It was as if everything I observed, heard, touched or tasted on the outside had a deeper meaning, the hidden code of which was now revealing itself to me. This was a heavenly language spoken in many tongues - it was the unmistakable language of divine synchronicity.
