Spend a Weekend Discovering How to Change the World from the Inside Out

On the weekend of November 6–8, in Lenox, MA, individuals from all around the world will gather to further their own spiritual development and create new potentials for human consciousness and culture. You’re invited to be one of them.

A Retreat for Evolutionaries

If you’re an Evolutionary, then you see your own passion to become more conscious and create a better future as being part of the evolution of the universe itself.

That is, you know you’re part of something that’s bigger than you—and you’re aware that your own “personal” development could never be only for your own benefit. In fact, you’re becoming (if not already) convinced that:

Your own transformation, your own evolution, is
necessary for creating a major shift of consciousness
and culture in the world.

As an evolutionary, you want to

  • Create a significant shift in human consciousness and culture—an evolutionary leap that can help change the world
  • Find a spirituality that makes sense in the times we’re living in—and that can meet the global challenges we face today
  • Address the deeper cultural currents that create so much conflict in the world—and become a vehicle for evolving beyond them
  • Catalyze dramatic transformation and evolution across every aspect of human life—and create a new world, together.

So if you do identify yourself as an evolutionary, then this really is an important retreat to attend. It represents an opportunity to engage with all dimensions of the human experience, in terms of both your own perspective on the meaning of human life and your potential to significantly and positively transform our culture.

What Is Possible on the Weekend of November 6–8?

Imagine people from around the world coming together to take an important leap forward in their individual and collective development … to create what philosopher Ken Wilber refers to as “grooves” in consciousness that make new possibilities available for others to step into … and truly discover how to change the world from the inside out.

That’s what is possible in a single weekend. And you’ll be working directly with cultural visionary and spiritual teacher Andrew Cohen, creator of Evolutionary Enlightenment and founder of EnlightenNext and EnlightenNext magazine to make that happen.

Cohen will guide you and your fellow participants through a weekend of intensive, hands-on spiritual contemplation, practice, and development, all aimed at creating a new culture and consciousness.

During the retreat you will

  • Discover the profound meaning and sense of purpose that an evolutionary perspective brings to human life
  • Experience consciousness beyond the mind by following Andrew Cohen’s powerful instructions for meditation
  • Distinguish between the two parts of the self that Andrew Cohen identifies as the ego (or separate sense of self) and the Authentic Self
  • Learn how to practice and apply the Five Fundamental Tenets of Evolutionary Enlightenment
  • Experience the power of an awakened field of consciousness as it is shared between you and other participants.

This retreat has been specifically designed to give evolutionaries like you the opportunity to be introduced to the powerful teaching and perspective of Evolutionary Enlightenment. It’s rare to be able to spend such focused time with like-minded individuals who share your passion for personal and cultural transformation.

And it also may be essential for us to truly effect the kind of change and evolution that is possible in our lifetimes.
