The Center for Integral World Spirituality is a vibrant community of Virtual Presence and Evolutionary Love Gatherings. We share tremendous Holy Purpose in bringing Unique Self teachings into the world. The Eros that unites us is grounded in simple truths of Unique Self teachings with which we all deeply resonate.

Most fundamentally, I fully embrace Marc’s dharma that we are each an irreducibly Unique expression of God, and that at this time on our planet, everyone of us is needed to Answer our Call to bring our Unique Gifts to a world that desperately needs us. The more we awaken to Unique Self, we feel that Call within the very marrow our Being.

That Call is being strongly answered by individuals from around the world. We are intimately connected by that Call in our virtual sangha, and during those amazingly wonderful times when we gather together in at places like Venwoude and Shalom and Esalen, and so many others. In our gatherings, there is a concentration of Evolutionary Love that is clarifying, uplifting, and joyfully life-altering.

We have two radically wonderful gatherings immediately coming up in October, first in upstate New York, and the week after at Esalen in California. Especially if you have not experienced Marc’s dharma directly in person, we would love you to join us.

Letter from Kristina Kincaid about the Recent Accelerate Event in Chicago with Marc Gafni

Hello Beloved Readers,

kristina_kincaid-100x100I just returned from the Accelerate event in Chicago this past weekend where Marc spoke to over 500 participants. In 90 minutes, like a Maestro, he brilliantly wove together the patterns that connect with great humor and humility, while transmitting, in the way only he can, the deepest and most profound teachings of Evolutionary Unique Self.

Like a match, he ignited a passionate flame in each heart, inspiring cutting-edge entrepreneurs to write outrageous love letters and commit outrageous acts of love in the world. Wow!

Stories were rewritten, poetry was made, tears ensued and Eros burned bright!!

He received an astounding, overwhelming, gratitude-filled five-minute standing ovation!

I stood in that room clapping, tears streaming, realizing I was witnessing love evolving and the very source code turning, manifesting through the form of each individual Unique Self in the room. There is, was, a gorgeous, seamless — but not featureless — whole!

Oh and PS one more thing!!

While standing at the coffee break and riding the elevator, numerous participants were heard saying Dr. Marc’s talk was the total highlight and best presentation of the entire seven day program!!

Deepest Bow to Dr. Marc for his unwavering devotion and tireless commitment for the evolution of love that lives as the God that is every human being!!

Outrageous Love,
Kristina Kincaid

3,000 people take Unique Self Mini-Course: Awakening
We are delighted to announce that 3,000 people have participated in the Unique Self Mini-Course.

The Mini Course is a four week course with fantastic supplemental materials and has been described by many people who participated as life changing.

It is absolutely free – our gift to you and the awakening of Your Unique Self.

Ten-Week Deluxe Unique Self Course in Full Swing:

UniqueSelf_H_FullC_00The ten week Unique Self course has also exceeded even our wildest dreams. Each week of this ten week course people have gathered from all over the world to directly participate together in the Awakening of Unique Self. For those of you who are in the teaching, you know that Unique Self is not about being an isolated individual. Rather, Unique Self is the great connector. Unique Self creates a powerful evolutionary we-space in which every irreducible Unique Self shows up in full splendor and commitment.  Each week the course deepens, and course participants and all involved in the course are consistently reporting genuine experiences of transformative insight, awakening and community. This past week’s theme has been love: Love as a Unique Self perception, Love as the very force that animates the whole cosmos, Love as the strange attractor driving evolution, and Love as the decision to open up in every moment, even in the midst of pain and fear. As Dr. Marc said in a beautiful meditation during the call:

Even though you have habits of closure, right now, in this moment, you can always practice opening to feel; open to feel what you are feeling now, whatever it is, and when you open to it, your heart opens and melts away that which is in the way.

You can still join the course, listen to the previous sessions, participate in the online portal and this awesome community of likeminded people, get feedback from Dr. Marc, and ask your questions in the next Q&A session. To jump in wholeheartedly, sign up here.

Love, particularly outrageous love in response to outrageous pain is the animating ethos and eros of the Center for World Spirituality. Love is not just a word. It is love in action.

Marc Gafni during a recent retreat at Shalom Mountain:

The one thing we all know is true
Every one of us in the room
Is that we live in a world of outrageous pain,
outrageous pain

Beyond imagination

The world’s an outrageously painful place
And the only response to outrageous pain
Is outrageous loving

CWS is an Activist Think-Tank dedicated to formulating and articulating a global ethics for a global civilization. We are committed to evolving the source code of human existence.

Our vehicle is our Activist Think-Tank, which is at this very moment working on a series of landmark projects in the areas of spirituality, conscious capitalism, Unique Self, Eros, gender, and relationships. We believe that these landmark projects, when taken together, will unfold–for the first time in the modern era–a genuine shared narrative of spirit, a genuine framework for a world spirituality or world philosophy.

We live in inescapable frameworks. Therefore, the articulation of a shared global framework of meaning and responsibility, which we all might relate to globally is an urgent need of our time.

Such a framework honors the singularity of every great wisdom tradition, even as it identifies the underlying depth structures and unique contributions of each. When take together, these begin to articulate an authentic “users guide to the universe.”

In deep love and connectedness,

The CWS team
