What happens if I don't Awaken?
When we fail to awaken to our hidden wholeness - to our unity and power in connection with our whole selves, with each other, and with the more than human world - the kind of self-awareness, compassion, and expansive love that we need in all of our choices and interactions becomes harder and harder to access.
The hidden aspects of our selves do not simply disappear, however. They continue to exert significant influence over lives. Whenever our actions are fueled by unconscious sources, the potential for relational damage is greater, not only in our immediate circles but also socially, politically, and in every institution in which we operate. Reactivity stems from these disconnected, unconscious parts of ourselves.
This is why it is essential to reclaim our hidden selves through self-reflection and deep inner work, together in community. Each of us has a responsibility to do this work so that what we bring to the world is reparative and healing, a reflection of our own internal healing into wholeness. Otherwise, we are merely adding to the destructive culture we all want to change.
The process of uncovering and reclaiming these hidden parts of ourselves is difficult work and should rarely be undertaken alone.
That is why we invite you to AWAKEN 2023, Illuman's annual men's gathering, where you will be supported by like-minded brothers and skillful facilitators. Join us September 14-17 for rituals, stories, nature wanderings, contemplative practices, and plentiful times for relaxation and connection with one another. Together we will reclaim our hidden wholeness.
Don't delay. Early Bird Rates end in 1 week!
