Core Precepts:

• The Obstacle is the Path

​​

• We are the Universe embodied, here to experience its own greatness via Love, Joy and Truth.  
   

• As we journey through Life, Life journeys through us. 
   

• We experience obstacles and challenges along the Way, so that we may have the opportunity to express and expand our inherent capacity for divinity, freedom and grace.  
   

• This happens naturally when we hone our center and operate from a felt sense of vertical power.
   

• Harmony within our own internal experience begets harmony in our shared external life within our local, regional and global communities. 

​

• Our task, therefore, is one of re-alignment; when we become centered physically, emotionally and perceptually, our meaning and purpose become emergent and self evident.
   

• The obstacle before you is your purpose.  You found it.  You have arrived.
