I'd like to give this place Kudos.
What they are doing there…read moreis incredibly unique.
They are teaching people to truly, honestly and for absolute real accept themselves.
And by extension, to SEE rather than judge.
The vast majority of gurus, and/or places for "spiritual development" are offering a sense of superiority...
If that is what you are after PLEASE STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE!!!
There is nothing that will humble you more than being required to look.
Really look.
If you want to feel superior to others, and bullshit to the world about what you "KNOW," may I suggest "Guru Swami G":

This hunk of flabby excuse for spirituality is on the more extreme side of what neophytes in eastern philosophy are gravitating toward:
self loathing.
She is a perfect example of the point I am trying to make What she offers is as common as it gets, yet it's cloaked in a wrapping paper of rarity. You will have no trouble finding a school or guru that tells you "my way is the only REAL way, the rest is just worthless." What you don't come across much is a school that teaches you tools to release the non-specific STUFF that has nothing to do with YOU and who you really are, as a spirit. As a being.
If you believe that your purpose or destiny is to spout forth what someone else has drilled into your head, InVision is not for you.
If you want to follow someone else's rules, to be given someone else's answers and not have to bother with finding your own, please find swami guru G. her online "ashram" may be for you. She is preaching to the profoundly submissive and deluded, and guess what? They are devouring it, as well as each other, whole...perhaps you will too. If you don't like her tattoos, there are many others like her, offering the same story, different characters. And they all claim to be the rarest and the realest there is.
BUT, If what you want is to learn who and what you really are without the endlesschlock, give InVision a go. I can't recommend their 6 week Meditation 1 class enough.
You will not learn to submit to someone who is absolute and convinced they are on the only "real" path that exists, so are therefore entitled to humiliate, chastise, and dominate you.
Instead, you will learn to ground yourself-- what that actually *means*.
To distinguish between what is you- your unique quickening ("energy") from what may be holding, or preoccupying you-- but has actually nothing to do with you, your well being, or unique purpose...
To release what is causing you trouble in your life, so that you can begin to understand freedom.
What is "cosmic energy" (for REAL, beyond cliches) and what it can do...
And then, you will begin to understand what it means to see and discern, rather than judge and pretend to be superior.
It's one thing to realize you are constantly involved in judging...it's quite another to learn to come from a very different place within yourself, and in the world.This is ultimately what it means to be "psychic"-- a far cry from the fortune telling or mind reading that certain clueless gurus will have you believe we are chasing while practicing the art of being psychic.
Believe it or not, this takes time. Sometimes an awful lot of time...but it happens. You awaken. You see. This imbues life with a tremendous amount of depth, love, and meaning.
This is not to say we NEVER judge, and ALWAYS love...it just means we learn- actually learn- instead of simply bullshitting our way thru with our "enlightenment"...
It is easy to underestimate what this is and what it means...most are more interested in *p r e t e n d i n g* not to judge while they actually never stop judging, even for a second (Ms. guru swami G literally NEVER stops judging-- it's the axis of her existence.)
You will not only get the HOW's at InVision, but also the WHYs...
(WHY does it even matter if you judge yourself and fellow human beings, if you are nice about it and simply pretend not to be judging?)
Yes, come to InVision with that very question, and you will begin to see.
Begin to SEE...
You will learn to accept yourself, others, as well as the current moment exactly for who and what they are--
No conditions and/or strings attached.
No sadistic/masochistic little guru games.
Learning, uncovering, reclaiming.
IN SHORT:
I am grateful.
I would likely have fallen prey to the likes of that rancid slab of bitter bitch in the video (above) had I not known better. That sort of thing used to impress me.
(I wonder how many of her disciples have been sexually abused in childhood, as she has? Because she and they are obsessed with moralizing, condemning and degrading sex, pleasure, and desire. It's sad. And frankly, quite ignorant. This leads to rather nasty consequences in the lives of people who buy into it- for, ahem, "enlightenment.")
Thank you World for the information available at InVision.
Thank you Ken Jones for offering your unique take. I dig it.
