Holiday Vacation Meditation Retreat 18 Mar – 23 Mar 2010 Day 6

This is the last day for participants from the awakening enlightenment meditation retreat. Today we integrate the participants back to society and run through the insights they had throughout the past few days.

Setting Hearts Free

Some of the participants experienced a degree of enlightenment, or what is known as a direct experience. Those who did not break through into direct experience felt clearer in themselves and came away with useful insights to bring into their life. More found the whole process of all the dyads transformative. Many experienced some form of breakthroughs, some softer and others more explosive.

After lunch and photo taking sessions, the participants left. Many had experienced great self realization and felt different from when they first walked in.

Making our way back to Singapore, we turned off at Kota Tinggi and ended up at MYL Tandoori House for some Indian food for dinner. The food was good! However, because we had 2 'foreigners' with us who praised the food there, we felt that we were overcharged.

After dinner, we continued our drive back to Singapore. Stopping by the petrol kiosk to top up petrol, we realized that we had a gecko who had hitched a ride with us.

How fast time flies! Before we know it, the first Awakening Enlightenment Meditation Retreat to be held in Asia was over. It sure seemed a wonderful holiday vacation to go on where you get to explore the nature of reality. Some experienced a transformative union of self and truth. Others experienced a unique condition of direct, conscious experience that revealed their ultimate nature. Yet others went home more in touch with themselves and better able to relate authentically with others. Many experienced inner levels of inner peace and stillness of mind that they had never known. Beautiful! Bliss!

Day 3 marks the second day of The Opening, a meditation retreat for participants. This particular awakening enlightenment retreat offers a distinct method of personal growth and self realization which provides a place for people to explore the ultimate questions of existence with practical guidance at each step along the way.

Seeking guidance from the master

Using a Western communication technique known as a dyad - a special form of communication with a partner - this allows participants to gain substantial insight into themselves. This is totally unlike other meditation retreats where you sit by yourself for hours and go into contemplation, definitely not a tranquil nor silent affair.

Days 2, 3 and 4 of the Meditation Retreat went on with each and every participant exploring their inner depths. This method of self-awakening offers participants the possibility to safely explore into the nature of reality and for some to achieve a degree of the direct knowing that enlightened beings throughout the ages have experienced.

Monitoring the participants some of whom were undergoing breakthroughs in self realization

Answering questions from the participants

Unlike the Eastern approaches which emphasised the need for sustained meditation in silence, this technique of meditation was specially created for the Westerners, especially Americans, who yearned for contact and open communication.

This form of meditation retreat has now taken its place as a tool for self realization for people from all walks of life.

Summerset Resort Rompin where the Awakening Enlightenment Meditation Retreat was held

Today marks the first day of the Awakening Enlightenment Meditation Retreat run by Martin Hahn of Setting Hearts Free. We have people attending this as part of a holiday vacation and others who just want to get more clarity in life and go through a process of self realization which hopefully will help to clear the work stress.

Crabs... When Masitah from F&B heard that we did not get to eat our crabs last night at the fresh seafood restaurant as there was no more stock, she had the chef cook the crabs specially for our group! That's what we call 'moment of truth'. :) Great job!!!
