Absolutely love it! I spent some time in the garden, spoke to one of the folks who volunteers here, got a nice tour, and was truly impressed. Can't wait to go back for either a meditation session or a talk. The world would be a much better place if everyone could go to a center like this.

I attended this center for almost 20 years, usually attending weekly Sunday services and the…read moreoccasional retreat. I really appreciated the teachings and guided meditations, as well as the fellowship....but...I can't help but be concerned about a close family member that got more heavily involved and attended seminary there. She started to detach from family to devote herself to the center, moved out of state to start an ashram for CSE, named it beneficiary of a family trust. I want to say she wasn't encouraged or led to do this, but over the years, the devotion to the center and increased detachment from family has me wondering if there's cult-like grooming going on behind the scenes. It's all been very concerning and bewildering for the family. No spiritual teacher there was been able to adequately reassure me that they are not engaging in practices that command total devotion, tithing, and disengagement with family, and sadly, as a result I stopped all contact with this center. This may just be my family member independently practicing an unhealthy excess of devotion to an organization, not something that they outwardly support, but I still have a lingering suspicion about the influence they yield over her. It feels exploitive. Her increased involvement in the center has really negatively impacted family relationships. I've also heard many folks have left this center in the last 10 years because of "toxic political rifts" between employees, volunteers and devotees. Some are choosing to hold independent Kriya study groups now. I'm grateful for the teachings while there but distance from this organization has been necessary for my mental health and continued spiritual development. I feel my family member has been stolen from me. Or driven to shun and neglect those that love her most. And CSE knows it and yet they not intervened.

I was procrastinating getting things done that would create momentum. I was scared of my own success, of becoming overwhelmed, and of being judged or rejected.

Now I'm excited to serve the clients who need me! After working with Fon, I feel much lighter, freer and more inspired. I am ready to share my gifts with the world and be rewarded for it. Fon herself has a special and unique presence. Coaching with her felt like a conversation with a wise friend. She stood for my greatness where I had doubts. Thank you, Fon!

Two things blew me away about Amanda's reading: how specific she was and how much information she…read moreimparted. A foundation of the reading was a beautiful Tarot deck from which I drew cards and which she interpreted in detail. In addition to the "downloads" she received from her Guides, she connected with a few of my Guides who had messages for me through her. I was taking notes and there were times when my pen couldn't move fast enough to capture all the information and insights she had for me. Thankfully, I also recorded the session on my phone so I can refer to it again. One piece of information she gave me took me by great surprise and she didn't hesitate to ask her Guides for clarification for me - and they delivered. In the course of the reading she mentioned three physical issues - two of my own, and one in a family member - which she couldn't have known about and which were right on. If you're looking for a great intuitive reading experience, Amanda Vinson is the real deal.
