THE PATH TO THE BELOVED is a set of various group events intent on exploring male and female essences. In addition to many other disciplines, theories and original thinking, these groups are infused with the work of David Deida,
author of The Way of the Superior Man and Dear Lover .
Sign up by
emailing us now and we will notify you of the next date and location of these exciting audience participation evening discussions and weekend workshops. Let us know your preferences for times, dates, formats, etc. as well as your feedback, questions and comments. For example, weekday evenings or all weekend workshops...quiet discussion groups or lively, dynamic activity groups...etc... You can also review our calendar for upcoming events.
Thank you to everyone that came last night! Bruce, as usual was a most
magnanimous host. His new place created an inspiring space to explore this
PATH TO THE BELOVED.
Marian and Alan were great volunteers. Kevin and Jai and Otto brought their
insights and wisdom of Deida's 3rd Stage Theory. The goddesses were radiant
and the warriors rose in their enlightenment. What a beautiful evening
living and integrating these ideas into our bodies, hearts, souls and
experience. We began the male / female interaction that everyone has been
asking for and it went beautifully...
The next event will be the much requested DayLong Workshop, Sunday, April
29th. Write me for more details and be sure and forward this email to
anyone you feel would enjoy this work.
THE PATH TO THE BELOVED has two primary groups, small discussion groups for
quiet sharing and larger interactive groups for dynamic activities. In the
future, we are planning a large soiree-type party to enliven this goddess &
warrior journey as we further integrate this paradigm into our psyches.
That will be at another lovely home in the China Camp area. A woman’s group
is still looking for women to join. Men can email Taylor for their men’s
group : taylorhawke@earthlink.net [see his link below]
Also of interest is the expansion of this work both locally and nationally
and eventually further...Currently there are plans in the making to take
this beloved work to San Francisco, Montclair, Santa Cruz as well as
Atlanta, Ashville, Baltimore, Maui, Sedona, Seattle, Los Angeles, Bali, Byron Bay
and from there, we'll see...
David Deida is coming to speak in San Rafael May 10-11, and in SF May 12-13.
Those should be exciting events for sure! David is quite the dynamic
speaker and keeps people on the edge of their seats when he talks.
THE PATH TO THE BELOVED uses the essential distinctions between masculine
and feminine forces described by Mr. Deida to help us walk a more fulfilling
path toward sacred relationships. This powerful work to clear the 'path to
the beloved', both the beloved within ourselves and the beloved we want to
manifest in our lives, contributes to peace in the world around us.
Creating community in this area of relationships offers a wonderful
opportunity to evolve our paradigm of close, elegant and deeply enriching
unions.
Join me for this adventure on 'The Path to the Beloved'...

This is powerful work to clear the path to the beloved, both the beloved within ourselves and the beloved we want to manifest in our lives. Deepening our masculine and feminine essences facilitates a clearer understanding of who we are and what we want in relationship.
Creating community in this area of relationships seems so important as we endeavor toward our bliss…
Join us for this adventure on THE PATH TO THE BELOVED...
March 20 was a wonderful evening exploring The Path to the Beloved. A huge "thank you" to all who attended this event. Once again Bruce graciously opened his heart and home to us and helped to create a wonderful environment for us to discover this path of the heart. Thank you, Bruce. Volunteers like Marian, Wyling and Lee also made a huge difference in the evening. Thank you!
The next event will be determined once we have established our next location. Let me inquire anew if anyone would be open to host an event in their home. There are two primary groups, small discussion groups for quiet sharing and larger interactive groups for dynamic activities. A woman’s group is still in demand as well. [Men can email Taylor for their men’s group : taylorhawke@earthlink.net
]
The Path events tend to attract approximately 30 people per event at this time. If necessary, I will book a local hotel or conference facility, but a home environment is so preferable, don’t you think…let me know.
The much requested weekend workshop is an exciting new direction and I am reviewing options for such an event for our group. Please forward this email to anyone you know who might be interested.
In the meantime, please review the following survey and respond as you would like to see The Path to the Beloved Events develop…

Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and weekends were the most requested days for these events.
Twice a month the preferred frequency.
Dynamic and weekend groups were requested more than quiet sharing groups.
Discussions, roleplaying and emotional processing were all popular formats.
Favorite activities were small groups, dancing and meditation.
Most requested was more interaction between men and women, sacred relationship topics, strategies to attract beloved.
My question now is for the next event…how many people prefer …?
____An all day Saturday event
____An all day Sunday event
____An two day weekend event
____Another Tuesday evening event
____A Wednesday evening event
____A Friday evening event
The excitement continues. March 20th is the next date for which we are registering people now. Space is filling up.
The format for each event will change to allow new ideas and topics to be explored.
Inquiries are coming in for events to take place in other cities as well...
Again, anyone in the central marin area who is ready, willing and able to offer their home as a location for me to facilitate these events, please email me back and let me know how many your space can accommodate, which days and times are available, how often your space would be available and any other questions or comments you might have.
As we take this journey together we shall discover THE PATH TO THE BELOVED...
A huge "thank you" to all who attended this past Tuesday's event. And a special "thank you" to Bruce Honig who opened his heart and home to all of us so graciously.
Without even trying, we had exactly the same number of both men and women! All your comments and suggestions are being used to make the subsequent events most enjoyable. The biggest issue seems to be having the group start and end on time. So, remember that next time we will begin promptly and end promptly at the agreed upon times.
The best feedback was how you enjoyed the different activities to help explore David Deida's and the various other ideas. The meditation, the small groups, the 'goddesses and warriors' game appealed differently to different people. This pilot was meant to discover which formats and activities to continue with.
Hence, there will be five groups:
the dynamic interactive group - once or twice a month, weekday evening
the quiet sharing group - once or twice a month, weekday evening
the women's group - once or twice a month, weekday evening
the men's group* [*note - please contact taylor for more info on the men's group - taylorhawke@earthlink.net
], and
the weekend day-long groups - once or twice a month, weekend daylong
anyone in the central marin area who is ready, willing and able to offer their home as a location for me to facilitate these events, please email me back and let me know how many your space can accommodate, which days and times are available, how often your space would be available and any other questions or comments you might have.
other than that, i'm ready to go and begin facilitating these events for all who are interested. please email me and let me know which groups' lists you would like to be contacted for... and feel free to forward this email on to others whom might enjoy this type of event.
this is powerful work to clear the path to the beloved, both the beloved within ourselves and the beloved we want to manifest in our lives. this first evening was the tip of the iceburg as far as what topics and activities will be offered in this context.
creating community in this area of relationships seems so important as we live in a society which there is so much discontent in relationships.
join me for this adventure on 'The Path to the Beloved'...
The March 6th event has been completely booked up at this time. Your names have been placed on a waiting list and if any space opens up, I will contact you immediately.
I am planning subsequent events in the very near future and have placed you on the mailing list to receive information regarding these other events.
The Path to the Beloved is gaining momentum as more and more inquiries arrive daily. It is my intention to offer several types of events for different people's sensibilities.
There will be the "quiet sharing" group, the more dynamic and interactive group and the weekend workshop group. Please indicate which of these appeal to you and which days of the week work best for you and your friends.
I send you rich blessings for love and joy in your lives,
