The Energy Way
It's Just Further Education
In the Energy Training (a training which involves participation in a series of groups with Michael over the course of a year) we’re going to be showing you many ways of exploring energy realities and levels of energy. And the energies that we explore, the energy vibrations and dimensions we explore, are all universal dimensions. That is to say, they don’t belong to anybody in particular. And if you connect with them, and work with them in the future, then they don’t belong to you. So all you can do really is to be a vehicle for channelling them, for allowing them to run from where they are in the universe, through you into other people, so that other people can respond and wake up on that level and make the connection themselves.
That’s the basic principle of the Energy Work that we’ve always done in the last twenty-one years of the Wild Goose Company: to open to certain levels of energy which are mysterious and which are largely unknown to human beings, and finding that we can participate in these dimensions by more and more connecting with them, and then some part of us begins to vibrate at the same frequency as those energies, and therefore we become united with them. And then by approaching other people in different ways, we can get what is known as a resonance with them, so that they also start to vibrate in that way, and then the more often that they can autonomously vibrate without having to be introduced to those dimensions of reality, the more they can make their own direct connection with those dimensions, and in that way they can move from a state of isolation and separateness, which human beings are mostly in, to feeling a harmony, a connection, not only with other human beings, but with all living beings and all of life.
So that’s the principle. And the various methods and structures that you will continue to be doing in these five days all have their own individual shape or form, and there’ll be different kinds of experiences you will have with them, but they are all intended to connect you more and more, although in different ways, with these universal levels of energy which have been here since any form of life began.
Well, of course, human beings can only pick up on levels of energy which fit them, which they’re capable of connecting with. There are many levels of energy that a human being probably cannot connect with because they lie outside our own arrangement of energies, so we can’t resonate with them. You can only resonate with an energy if you have the potentiality in you to vibrate in that way, and there are some energies, I’m sure, which we are not capable of resonating with. But there are many that we are. So in a way, anything that you hear about or read about that some human being somewhere has experienced or realised, that then is a possibility for a human energy system to experience, which means that it’s possible for anybody who takes the trouble to explore to experience.
So you all know words like ‘love’, ‘bliss’, ‘pleasure’, ‘oneness’, ‘the peace that passeth understanding’, a sense of being Divine without quite knowing what you mean by that word. And even if those things are not yet real to you - although maybe you’ve had glimpses of some of them - these are things that some people at least have experienced, and that means that they are available to human beings, which means they are available to you.
When we’re born we all have certain potentialities, and then just as I’m talking about resonating with dimensions of reality that are around and getting a response from within, so the same thing happens to us when we go through our life: we resonate with what is around us. We resonate with our parents initially, our siblings, brothers and sisters, other members of the family, aunts and grandmothers and grandfathers; we go to school and we resonate with our fellow students, our playmates at kindergarten, with our teachers, the games we play, the education we are given, the subjects we are taught. We resonate, we respond. We respond to mathematics, to geography and history, to language and so on. There’s a response. We can learn a language, and we can learn all these other things, because there’s a response in us.
So all these things, in a way, we respond to, and then we arrive at our maturity, our adulthood, and we’ve had these things woken up in us. But what we haven’t had woken up in us are things like bliss, and love, and unity, and openness, and great fellow warmth towards other forms of life. Some people are lucky in that they do have some of these things awoken in them to a certain extent, but most people do not.
So one way of looking at what we’re doing here is that it’s actually further education. It’s not just some kind of extreme, anarchic, esoteric activity which is only for an elite few. It is not like that at all, although it may often be seen like that. It is not like that, it is a further education. It’s creating a reality around you which you didn’t have in your family, in your school, in your university education, and in your jobs. You know that well enough: you guys are all going back and forth between this kind of space and an ordinary life space. But the kind of levels that we can contact here and begin to resonate with - all of us, including myself - during this Work, these are generally speaking not available in your daily life, so our system is not educated to respond in this way and give us experiences of great joy, or feelings of love, and these kinds of things. We’re not educated in that way.
Of course, we get moments when we feel these things - we just hit them - but we are not educated in how we can be in a certain space and enjoy these possible realities we can have. So in a way we are giving you here a further education, so that parts of you that have been dormant, sleeping, and not awakened by everything that’s happened to you so far, can start responding, come alive, waken up, become part of you, so that not only when you’re here, but when you’re not here, when you’re in the world, you can find ways - not through the structures that we’re doing, of course, although if you’re teaching Energy Work to others then it includes those, but finding ways through your growing familiarity with this so-called emptiness all around us, which is not empty at all - to go feeling your way into dimensions where you can share in a certain reality and feel some of the joys which are available to you as human beings.
So we call it a Training because we’re hoping that some of you will in fact use the methods that you’re learning here to pass on to other people. We’re, in a way, training you to maybe be in a position where you can share what you get with other people. But really it’s an education. And we hope that by the end of the Training in the summer you will all have been educated to some extent in ways that your education and upbringing so far has not brought you to.
That’s the way I see it: that you will be acquiring or having for yourself these awakening parts of yourself that are in tune with beautiful levels of energy, where you can just be, and enjoy just to be alive as a human being on the earth.
