Meditations
A woman who had practised meditation for many years was intrigued at the sage’s lack of insistence on meditation. Sometimes he would even discourage people from practising it. “Why are you against meditation?” she asked. “I’m not against meditation, only its practice!” the sage explained. The woman was even more perplexed.
Events
Awareness involves accuracy of perception, seeing whatever is there without judgment and avoidance. It is “making the unconscious conscious” (Carl Jung). The process of change and growth do not have to be painful and protracted. Francis Valloor offers a variety of workshops and programmes that help participants to find stillness and peace.
Resources
A visitor asked the sage how anyone could hope to understand the message of a sage. The sage replied, “Silence is the best way to understand a sage. Words and concepts are of the mind. Useful, but not enough, and they are often obstacles.” “But that’s not an easy way for most human beings,” the visitor protested. “Stories are the next best,” the sage added.
Testimonials
Francis’ work is simply amazing – simple, challenging, and life-changing. I am grateful for the opportunity to have gone through this. (Mairead M.)
I was privileged to attend three short awareness workshops of Francis. The first was a weekend workshop where I felt I came in contact with myself
