Openhand level 3: "The Transfiguration"

Uniting lower and higher self as one
As the pull of the soul awakens the divinity within us, our lives can be thrown into turmoil. Living the life of the false self, where we have identified with our personality and the outer drama, ceases to satisfy us and yet frequently, the soul seems to lead to greater detachment from society. It feels like we are being pulled in two contradictory directions. This can lead to inner conflict and a roller coaster ride of emotions. As we open to the flow of divine love, we experience enormous surges of energy lifting us to wonderful peaks; food, sleep and needs of the body no longer seem necessary. Then suddenly we can be plunged into energy lows where it becomes difficult even to get out of bed in the morning. How do we resolve this situation?...
Transfiguration (Openhand: level 3)
At this point on our journey, there is no longer an alternative, but to go inwards, to heal the conditioning of our inner child and teenager identities, dissolve the false self entirely and facilitate a "kundalini activation": to reunite lower and higher self.
The rise of energy up the spine is divinely magical and profoundly breath-taking. It initiates a shift of perception from being a personality, to experiencing ourselves as pure non-identified presence - the "Seer of all things - expressed uniquely for each of us through our soul.
The Transfiguration is for people who are ready to make that journey. It is Openhand's level 3 course and takes place once a year at the remote mountain retreat centre "Cae Mabon" in Snowdonia North Wales where the energy is clear and high.
Course highlights
- Confronting, healing and dissolving inner child identities
- Invoking and dissolving past life karma
- Activating kundalini, uniting higher and lower self
- Transcending the ego
- Taking people into the crystal clear clarity of the Seer
How do we become transfigured?
The Transfiguration is not something that can be initiated by intention - it cannot happen according to a plan. However it can be prepared for. By understanding fully this process of expanding consciousness, we may facilitate and ease the process. In short, we can catalyse it by raising our vibration.
From the food we eat, to the clothes we wear and houses we live in, our society seems perfectly configured to lower our vibration removing us from the experience of divine union with our Higher Self.
Electrical gadgets and appliances, newspapers, TVs, mobile phones, computer games, cars, clothing and other 'accessories' dominate our lives. Corporate marketeers have created lifestyles for us tempting us to buy their never ending supply of 'latest new things'.
Apart from being devastatingly destructive for our environment and natural ecosystems, this "matrix" of conditioned behaviours and thinking, generates so much internal activity, that our consciousness - our spirit - is sucked into the whirlwind of activity. It is swallowed up like water into a sponge.
By turning down society's cacophony of noise, we can begin to still mind and body once more, release our illusionary attachments to things we don't need and expand our consciousness to be at one with all things. It is this process that will facilitate our Transfiguration.
The Work
"The Transfiguration" is a week long inner exploration in a clear and open space away from the collective human mass subconsciousness to help us connect fully with our divine birthright - union with our Higher Self coming from the place of absoluteness.
The work will take place at Cae Mabon in Snowdonia (visit website...Cae Mabon) specifically chosen for its remoteness, minimal negative outside influence and high residual and natural energy.
Once more we'll be working with the Benevolent Guiding Presence of the universe which some know as unconditional love. We'll be embodying and channeling it's mirroring consciousness for maximum unfolding and upliftment for all.
Whilst living in ecologically sustainable dwellings at one with mother nature and by way of experiential exercises, meditation in movement and ceremony, we will offer invaluable information and skills in achieving and maintaining a high energetic vibration so that we are able to optimise our own home, social and work environments.
In this way, our path to completely transfigured living will be eased and facilitated.
Course Facilitators
Chris Bourne: At the age of 40, Chris was involved in a life threatening car crash in which he thought he would certainly die. This precipitated total inner surrender, a rapid expansion of consciousness and reconnection with the absolute - the God within us. He explains "It was as if I was being challenged to surrender every belief and value that I held. The sense of coming home to my true self was joyous and intensely liberating. I felt that in losing what I thought to be myself I had gained everything".
Prior to his awakening Chris had a rich and varied professional career including a Science Masters Degree from Oxford University. It is this synthesis of both profound spiritual experience and grounded scientific understanding which is proving invaluable in facilitating others in their own journey of Enlightenment.
Trinity Bourne: Trinity developed a keen interest in harmonious living from a young age, enjoying a passionate affiliation with the natural world. About seventeen years ago she experienced a profound spiritual awakening opening her heart to the 'truth' about our inherent nature. This led to a series of powerful experiences guided by higher consciousness initiating compelling direct experience of multiple dimensions.
Trinity has a wealth of first hand experience of how energy moves both in the field and within individuals, removal of energetic blockages, kundalini energy, past lives, karma and their relevance to our current incarnation.
Outcome
“The Transfiguration" is a powerfully life changing experience. It offers the potential to make radical improvements in our way of living to raise our vibration reuniting us with our true birthright and destined way of being.
It will help manage the expansion of consciousness that precipitates our Transfiguration and ultimate union with the divine.
"It doesn't interest me if there is one God
Or many gods.
I want to know if you belong or feel abandoned,
if you know despair or can see it in others.
I want to know if you are prepared to live in the world
with its harsh need to change you;
if you can look back with firm eyes
saying "this is where I stand."
I want to know if you know how to melt
into that fierce heat of living
falling toward the centre of your longing.
I want to know if you are willing
to live day by day with the consequence of love
and the bitter unwanted passion of your sure defeat.
I have been told in that fierce embrace
even the gods speak of God."
