This site is dedicated to informing you about enlightenment intensives, a form of residential retreat whose purpose is to help you discover that which you have always wanted to know, that which you most deeply desire - the truth of who you are.  Enlightenment intensives are not easy, but the discovery of who you really are is priceless and worth every effort. 

Enlightenment Intensives are unique.  They belong to no tradition, though they have their roots in the same soil that all the great traditions have grown from - humanity's longing for realization, for awakening, for enlightenment.  And they have no doctrine, no ready-made map that explains how the truth looks, how it will taste, what you will see when you wake up.  For the fact of the matter is that you do not need anyone to tell you the truth.  You are the truth you seek and only you can discover this for yourself.  What enlightenment intensives do is place you in an environment in which you can open to the truth and in which you can let the truth reveal itself to you.  And, as many have said, that truth is indeed beyond price.

There is only one absolute Truth, and all other truths emanate from it.  The Truth is inseparable from who you are.  Yes, you are the Truth.  If you look for it elsewhere, you will be deceived every time.  The very Being that you are is Truth.

Nobody can tell you who you are.  It would be just another concept, so it would not change you.  Who you are requires no belief.  In fact, every belief is an obstacle.  It does not even require your realization, since you already are who you are.  But without realization, who you are doe not shine forth into this world.  It remains in the unmanifested, which is, of course, your true home.  You are then like an apparently poor person who does not know he has a bank account with $100 million in it and so his wealth remains an unexpressed potentional.
